Preferred term

Likelihood Functions  

Type

  • mesh:Descriptor

Definition

  • Functions constructed from a statistical model and a set of observed data which give the probability of that data for various values of the unknown model parameters. Those parameter values that maximize the probability are the maximum likelihood estimates of the parameters.
