Maximum approximate Bernstein likelihood estimation in a two-sample semiparametric model

From MaRDI portal
Publication:6104907



Abstract: Maximum likelihood estimators are proposed for the parameters and the densities in a semiparametric density ratio model in which the nonparametric baseline density is approximated by the Bernstein polynomial model. The EM algorithm is used to obtain the maximum approximate Bernstein likelihood estimates. Simulation study shows that the performance of the proposed method is much better than the existing ones. The proposed method is illustrated by real data examples. Some asymptotic results are also presented and proved.
