Bayesian estimation and maximum likelihood methods represent two central paradigms in modern statistical inference. Bayesian estimation incorporates prior beliefs through Bayes’ theorem, updating ...

We propose a multiple estimation adjustment (MEA) method to correct effect overestimation due to selection bias from a hypothesis-generating study (HGS) in pharmacogenetics. MEA uses a hierarchical ...

Problems of maximum likelihood estimation are discussed for shape and scale parameters from certain decreasing hazard rate distributions, typically either mixed-exponential or "work-hardened." ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract We study maximum likelihood estimation for the statistical model for undirected random graphs, known as the β-model, in which the degree ...
