About this document
Maximum Likelihood Estimation Overview by Claudia Aleta is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document discusses maximum likelihood estimation, which is a method for estimating parameters of a probability distribution. It maximizes the likelihood function, which is the probability of obtaining the observed sample values given a particular value of the parameter. For discrete distributions, the likelihood function is the joint probability of observing the sample values. The maximum likelihood estimate is the value of the parameter that maximizes this likelihood function. The document provides an
