This paper illustrates how the duality theory of geometric programming and the special methods available for solution can be used to obtain maximum likelihood estimates for multinomial probabilities.

The maximum likelihood method estimates the parameters of the linear model so as to maximize the value of the joint multinomial likelihood function of the responses. Maximum likelihood estimation is ...

The GENMOD procedure fits a generalized linear model to the data by maximum likelihood estimation of the parameter vector .There is, in general, no closed form solution for the maximum likelihood ...

Thanks to excellent exposure and interest from the petroleum industry, rocks of the Permian basin have a well-established sequence stratigraphic framework (Fig. 1) 12,13. The approximately 10 Myr ...
