A likelihood function for the frequency of the A1 allele when 2 A1 alleles are observed in a sample of 10 alleles. The vertical dashed line is drawn through the maximum value of the likelihood ...

Gentleman & Geyer (1994) discuss the analysis of interval censored data and present results based on standard convex optimisation theory. Here, this problem is viewed from the perspective of a mixing ...

Mixed model analyses via restricted maximum likelihood, fitting the so-called animal model, have become standard methodology for the estimation of genetic variances. Models involving multiple genetic ...
