It is well known that the maximum likelihood estimates (MLEs) of a multivariate normal distribution from incomplete data with a monotone pattern have closed-form expressions and that the MLEs from incomplete data with a general missing-data pattern can be obtained using the Expectation-Maximization
Usual methods for estimating AIDS incidences are based on the inflation of a discrete reporting delay distribution, which often results in very imprecise estimates of the incidence in the most recent past. In this paper, we propose an alternative approach to estimate the AIDS incidence by inflating
