Physical examinations made at annual or other fixed time intervals on each member of a group of healthy individuals yield sets of random variables measured over time, called time series. A computer program has been written which treats these measurements as predictor variables to be used in estimati

We study extremal problems related to nonparametric maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) of a signal in white noise. The aim is to reduce these to standard problems of optimal control which can be solved by iterative procedures. This reduction requires a preliminary data smoothing; stability theorems
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
