For more information on these methods, see the references at the end of this chapter. There are two fundamental methods of estimation for simultaneous equations: least squares and maximum likelihood.

Survey sampling and estimation methods are essential tools in statistics, allowing researchers to draw conclusions about a larger population based on a smaller, manageable subset. These methods ...

Recent research has focused on developing new families of distributions and refining estimation methods to improve the accuracy and applicability of statistical models in various fields ...

Construct sound estimators using the techniques of maximum likelihood and method of moments estimation. Construct and interpret confidence intervals for one and two population means, one and two ...

Note that this is not in general a likelihood-based method of estimation, so that inferences based on likelihoods are not possible for GEE methods. This is the GEE equivalent of the inverse of the ...
