Examples of Maximum Maximum Likelihood Estimation Likelihood This post aims to give an intuitive explanation of MLE, discussing why it is so useful (simplicity and availability in software) as well as where it is limited (point estimates are not as informative as Bayesian estimates, which are also shown for comparison). In Maximum Likelihood Estimation, we wish to maximize the conditional probability of observing the data ( X) given a specific probability distribution and its parameters ( theta ), stated formally as: P (X ; theta) Represent the best choice of values for our parameters or endorsed by any college or university a new one (!
