β¦ Synopsis
I n this paper we consider a cell population such 88 bacteria consisting of two t y p of cells, mutant and nonmutant. Under the mutation and homogeneous pure birth promme%, this paper derives a maximum likelihood estimation procedure for estimating mutation rate and birth rate. The method is applied to Newcombe's data; further some Monte Carlo studies are generated. The numerical reeulta indicate that the method is quite efficient for estimating genetic parametera in Cell pOpUlIbtiOIl8.

## Abstract Leftβcensored data often arise in environmental contexts with one or more detection limits, DLs. Estimators of the parameters are derived for leftβcensored data having two detection limits: DL~1~ and DL~2~ assuming an underlying normal distribution. Two different approaches for calculat
The S-distribution is a four-parameter distribution that is defined in terms of a differential equation, in which the cumulative is represented as the dependent variable: The article proposes a maximum likelihood estimator for the shape parameters of this distribution.
