log-likelihood function
1Likelihood function — In statistics, a likelihood function (often simply the likelihood) is a function of the parameters of a statistical model, defined as follows: the likelihood of a set of parameter values given some observed outcomes is equal to the probability of …
2Log-normal distribution — Probability distribution name =Log normal type =density pdf μ=0 cdf μ=0 parameters =sigma > 0 infty < mu < infty support = [0,+infty)! pdf =frac{1}{xsigmasqrt{2piexpleft [ frac{left(ln(x) mu ight)^2}{2sigma^2} ight] cdf =frac{1}{2}+frac{1}{2}… …
3Likelihood-ratio test — The likelihood ratio, often denoted by Lambda (the capital Greek letter lambda), is the ratio of the maximum probability of a result under two different hypotheses. A likelihood ratio test is a statistical test for making a decision between two… …
4Maximum likelihood — In statistics, maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) is a method of estimating the parameters of a statistical model. When applied to a data set and given a statistical model, maximum likelihood estimation provides estimates for the model s… …
5Quasi-maximum likelihood — A quasi maximum likelihood estimate (QMLE, also known as a pseudo likelihood estimate or a composite likelihood estimate ) is an estimate of a parameter θ in a statistical model that is formed by maximizing a function that is related to the… …
6Quasi-likelihood — In statistics, quasi likelihood estimation is one way of allowing for overdispersion, that is, greater variability in the data than would be expected from the statistical model used. It is most often used with models for count data or grouped… …
7Score function — The term score function may refer to: * Scoring rule, in decision theory, a measure of one s performance when making decisions under uncertainty * Score (statistics), the derivative of the log likelihood function with respect to the parameter …
8Logistic function — A logistic function or logistic curve is the most common sigmoid curve. It modelsthe S curve of growth of some set P . The initial stage of growth is approximately exponential; then, as saturation begins, the growth slows, and at maturity, growth …
9Partition function (mathematics) — The partition function or configuration integral, as used in probability theory, information science and dynamical systems, is an abstraction of the definition of a partition function in statistical mechanics. It is a special case of a… …
10Success likelihood index method — (SLIM)= Success Likelihood Index Method (SLIM) is a technique used in the field of Human reliability Assessment (HRA), for the purposes of evaluating the probability of a human error occurring throughout the completion of a specific task. From… …
