The program estimates the optimal gene-frequencies from observed values of phenotypes by the method of maximumlikelihood. The program does not make assumptions about a specific blood-group-system. This information has to be supplied by input cards. A straightforward iteration process is used for ob

The Baum-Welch (EM) algorithm is a familiar tool for calculation of the maximum likelihood estimate of the parameters in hidden Markov chain models. For the particular case of a binary Markov chain corrupted by binary channel noise a detailed study is carried out of the influence that the initial co
We consider a multiple autoregressive model with non-normal error distributions, the latter being more prevalent in practice than the usually assumed normal distribution. Since the maximum likelihood equations have convergence problems (Puthenpura and Sinha, 1986) [11], we work out modified maximum
