Bayesian estimation and maximum likelihood methods represent two central paradigms in modern statistical inference. Bayesian estimation incorporates prior beliefs through Bayes’ theorem, updating ...

The Andersson-Madigan-Perlman (AMP) Markov property is a recently proposed alternative Markov property (AMP) for chain graphs. In the case of continuous variables with a joint multivariate Gaussian ...

Empirical likelihood methods have emerged as a robust, non‐parametric framework for statistical inference that skilfully bypasses the need for strong parametric assumptions. By constructing likelihood ...
