we want to infor the parameters ! In this case ,
we are parametric :
models


Chapter 1 :
a) Likelihood are functions of an unknown parameter .
O


110(U) = Px(NIO) < for a
single case


IID obs , due to independence

(1014) = Px(ip)
,
roan

↳ can
use (101) =
log((10ln)) .


Why ? log transformation

log is an
increasing
is one-to-one
,

function
, >N




Why MLE ? Likelihood
says how likely a value of the parameter is
given the data


to inter from the data :
maximise the likelihood

↳ find of the the data
mostly likely value parameter given .

element of B is contained in a set element of A then A is said to be minimal sufficient

① Meyman's Factorisation Theorem to this !

A statistic T is sufficient for 0 Px(u10) =
g(0 , T(x)) n(X) ·

OE h(X) is a zero function


any statistic n(x)
for such that the above expectation makes sense .

- A statistic T is said to be
complete if its
family of distributions &P + CtIO) 08] :
