Approximate Maximum-Likelihood Estimation Of Circle Parameters Using A Phase-Coded Kernel

Zelniker, Emanuel; Clarkson, Ian Vaughan L. - 2004

The accurate fitting of a circle to noisy measurements of points on its circumference is an important and much-studied problem in statistics. Atherton & Kerbyson (Image and Vision Computing 17, 1999, 795-803) have proposed a complex convolutional circle parameter estimator. One of the estimators...

Statistical Methods for Nonlinear Dynamic Models with Measurement Error Using the Ricker Model

Resendes, David Joseph - 2011

In ecological population management, years of animal counts are fit to nonlinear, dynamic models (e.g. the Ricker model) because the values of the parameters are of interest. The yearly counts are subject to measurement error, which inevitably leads to biased estimates and adversely affects...
