Asymptotic Characterization of Log-Likelihood Maximization Based Algorithms and Applications
The asymptotic distribution of estimates that are based on a sub-optimal search for the maximum of the log-likelihood function is considered. In particular, estimation schemes that...

Maximum likelihood estimation of the flow size distribution tail index from sampled packet data
In the context of network traffic analysis, we address the problem of estimating the tail index of flow (or more generally of any group) size distribution from the observation of...

Noise-Contrastive Estimation of Unnormalized Statistical Models, with Applications to Natural Image Statistics
We consider the task of estimating, from observed data, a probabilistic model that is parameterized by a finite number of parameters. In particular, we are considering the situat...

Variational Bayes Estimation of Mixing Coefficients
We investigate theoretically some properties of variational Bayes approximations based on estimating the mixing coefficients of known densities. We show that, with probability 1 a...
