Estimating the polarization degree of polarimetric images in coherent illumination using maximum likelihood methods [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This paper addresses the problem of estimating the polarization degree of polarimetric images in coherent illumination. It has been recently shown that the degree of polarization associated to polarimetric images can be estimated by the method of moments

Minimax Estimation of the Mean Matrix of the Matrix Variate Normal Distribution under the Divergence Loss Function

open access: yesStatistica, 2018
The problem of estimating the mean matrix of a matrix-variate normal distribution with a covariance matrix is considered under two loss functions. We construct a class of empirical Bayes estimators which are better than the maximum likelihood estimator ...

Maximum Likelihood Estimation of Position in GNSS [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Signal Processing Letters, 2007
In this letter, we obtain the Maximum Likelihood Estimator of position in the framework of Global Navigation Satellite Systems. This theoretical result is the basis of a completely different approach to the positioning problem, in contrast to the conventional two-steps position estimation, consisting of estimating the ...

Benefits of maximum likelihood estimators for fracture attribute analysis: Implications for permeability and up-scaling

open access: yes, 2017
The success of any predictive model is largely dependent on the accuracy with which its parameters are known. When characterising fracture networks in rocks, one of the main issues is accurately scaling the parameters governing the distribution of ...

Variable bandwidth local maximum likelihood type estimation for diffusion processes

open access: yesAdvances in Difference Equations, 2018
The method of robust approach is applied to estimate drift function and diffusion function of diffusion processes with discrete-time observations. The proposed method combines the ideas of local linear regression technique and maximum likelihood type ...

Bias-Corrected Maximum Likelihood Estimators of the Parameters of the Unit-Weibull Distribution

open access: yesAustrian Journal of Statistics, 2021
It is well known that the maximum likelihood estimates (MLEs) have appealing statistical properties. Under fairly mild conditions their asymptotic distribution is normal, and no other estimator has a smaller asymptotic variance.

Bayesian Estimation of the Scale Parameter of the Marshall-Olkin Exponential Distribution under Progressively Type-II Censored Samples

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Theory and Applications (JSTA), 2018
This paper studies the Bayes estimator, the maximum likelihood estimator and the approximate likelihood estimator of the scale parameter for the Marshall-Olkin exponential distribution under the progressive type-II censored sample.

Estimations of Modified Lindley Parameters Using Progressive Type-II Censoring with Applications

open access: yesAxioms, 2023
This study addresses the estimation problems of the modified Lindley distribution using a progressive Type-II censoring plan. Using the maximum likelihood and maximum product of spacing and Bayesian estimation methods, the unknown parameter, reliability,
