Introduction to Likelihood Statistics
• If treated as probability distributions, likelihood functions can be analyzed with all the tools developed to analyze posterior distributions of Bayesian statistics (e.g., marginal distributions and MCMC sampling).

Observing the World Around Us
hea-www.harvard.eduobservations and questions which we can use to explore the world around us. We look for answers that are consistent with our experience and with the accumulated knowledge of humankind. At all times we try to keep ourselves rooted in our own observations. We strive to maintain a connection between what we are exploring

SAMPLING TECHNIQUES INTRODUCTION
cs.fit.eduProbability sampling (a term due to Deming, [Deming]) is a sampling porcess that utilizes some form of random selection. In probability sampling, each unit is drawn with known probability, [Yamane, p3] or has a nonzero chance of being selected in the sample. [Raj, p10] Such samples are usually selected with the help of random numbers.

Importance Sampling - Statistics
dept.stat.lsa.umich.edu3 Importance Sampling when the target density is unnormalized A function is a probability density on the interval I if the function is non-negative and in-tegrates to 1 over I. Therefore for any non-negative function f such that R I f(x)dx = C, the function p(x) = f(x)/C is a density on I; f is referred to as the unnormalized density
