β¦ Synopsis
The main statistical packages for analysing linear models in categorical data either permit a wide application of the weighted least-squares methodology or conΓΏne the application of the maximumlikelihood approach to speciΓΏc forms of these models. In this work, the likelihood equations for the general linear model are derived in a neat form suitable to their iterative solving and computational implementation.

This paper addresses the problem of maximum likelihood parameter estimation in linear models a!ected by Gaussian noise, whose mean and covariance matrix are uncertain. The proposed estimate maximizes a lower bound on the worst-case (with respect to the uncertainty) likelihood of the measured sample,
In this paper, we derive general formulae for second-order biases of maximum likelihood estimates in overdispersed generalized linear models, thus generalizing results by Cordeiro and McCullagh (J.
