To obtain the likelihood of a non-Gaussian state-space model, Durbin and Koopman (1997, Biometrika, 84, 669 -684) ΓΏrst calculate the likelihood under an approximating linear Gaussian model and then use Monte Carlo methods to estimate the necessary adjustment factor. We show that Durbin and Koopman's
## Some widely used applications of maximum likelihood The best thing about being a statistician is that you get to play in everyone's backyard.
Maximum likelihood estimator is obtained for the mortality rate function of a specific type appearing in survival data andysis. Strict consistency of this estimator is proved.
