A slecture by Hariharan Seshadri



Please leave comments below if you have any questions, or if you notice any errors, or if you would like to discuss a topic further.


Jianxin Sun will review this slecture

In this slecture, the author detail the method of MLE on different specific distribution and conclude the final expression for estimating each of them.

4 commenly used distribution are investigated, including Exponential, Geometric, Binomial and Possision distributions. Mathmatical derivation are clearly presented which help student to understand how to apply general MLE on a new distribution. This slecture also summerize the final useful expression of estimation for each of those distribtions which can directely used for application.
