A likelihood function for the frequency of the A1 allele when 2 A1 alleles are observed in a sample of 10 alleles. The vertical dashed line is drawn through the maximum value of the likelihood ...

We derive a closed form expression for the likelihood function of a Gaussian max-stable process indexed by ℝ d at p ≤ d + 1 sites, d ≥ 1. We demonstate the gain in efficiency in the maximum composite ...

The need to combine likelihood information is common in analyses of complex models and in meta-analyses, where information is combined from several studies. We work to first order, and show that full ...

Empirical likelihood methods have emerged as a robust, non‐parametric framework for statistical inference that skilfully bypasses the need for strong parametric assumptions. By constructing likelihood ...
