Instructions: For each of the following distributions, compute the maximum likelihood estimator based on n i.d. observations X····, Xn and the Fisher information, if defined. If it is not, enter DNE in each applicable input box. which means that each X1 has density exp (-( 1)2 202 Hint: Keep in mind that we consider σ2 as the parameter, not σ . You may want to write τ-σ2 in your computation. (Enter barx_n for the sample average Xn and bar(X_n 2)...
3. Method of moments estimators Bookmark this page For each of the following distributions, give the method of moments estimator in terms of the sample averages Xn and X, assuming we have access to n i.i.d. observations X1,...,xn. In other words, express the parameters as functions of E [X1 and E[X] and then apply these functions to Xn and X (b) 1 point possible (graded) X; Poiss (), > 0, which means that each X1 has the pmf PX(X =...
