Profile Likelihood Biclustering
Biclustering, the process of simultaneously clustering the rows and columns of a data matrix, is a popular and effective tool for finding structure in a high-dimensional dataset.

Maximum likelihood, profile likelihood, and penalized likelihood: a primer. [PDF]
The method of maximum likelihood is widely used in epidemiology, yet many epidemiologists receive little or no education in the conceptual underpinnings of the approach. Here we provide a primer on maximum likelihood and some important extensions which have proven useful in epidemiologic research, and which reveal connections between maximum likelihood

Profile likelihood-based parameter and predictive interval analysis guides model choice for ecological population dynamics [PDF]
Calibrating mathematical models to describe ecological data provides important insight via parameter estimation that is not possible from analysing data alone.

Constraints on Lorentz Invariance Violation from Gamma-Ray Burst Rest-Frame Spectral Lags Using Profile Likelihood [PDF]
We reanalyze the spectral lag data for 56 Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) in the cosmological rest frame to search for Lorentz Invariance Violation (LIV) using frequentist inference.

Profile Maximum Likelihood Estimation of Single-Index Spatial Dynamic Panel Data Model [PDF]
In this paper, the spatial dynamic panel data (SDPD) model is extended to the single-index spatial dynamic panel data (Si-SDPD) model by introducing a nonlinear connection function to reflect the interaction between explanatory variables.

Constraint on Lorentz invariance violation for spectral lag transition in GRB 160625B using profile likelihood [PDF]
We reanalyze the spectral lag data for GRB 160625B using frequentist inference in order to constrain the energy scale $$(E_{QG})$$ ( E QG ) of Lorentz Invariance Violation (LIV).

Monte Carlo modified profile likelihood in models for clustered data [PDF]
The main focus of the analysts who deal with clustered data is usually not on the clustering variables, and hence the group-specific parameters are treated as nuisance. If a fixed effects formulation is preferred and the total number of clusters is large

Bias Correction and Modified Profile Likelihood under the Wishart Complex Distribution [PDF]
This paper proposes improved methods for the maximum likelihood (ML) estimation of the equivalent number of looks $L$. This parameter has a meaningful interpretation in the context of polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (PolSAR) images.

Maximum-likelihood model averaging to profile clustering of site types across discrete linear sequences. [PDF]
A major analytical challenge in computational biology is the detection and description of clusters of specified site types, such as polymorphic or substituted sites within DNA or protein sequences.
