Topic 15: Maximum Likelihood Estimation

Introduction to Statistical Methodology Maximum Likelihood Estimation Exercise 3. Check that this is a maximum. Thus, p^(x) = x: In this case the maximum likelihood estimator is also unbiased. Example 4 (Normal data). Maximum likelihood estimation can be applied to a vector valued parameter. For a simple
