A Standard Maximum Likelihood Estimation and Links to I

Neural Information Processing Systems

In the standard MLE setting [see, e.g., Murphy, 2012, Ch. 9] we are interested in learning the These two definitions are, however, essentially equivalent. Eq. (15) is a smooth objective that can be optimized with a (stochastic) gradient descent procedure. This section contains the proofs of the results relative to the perturb and map section (Section 3.2) and The proposition now follows from arguments made in Papandreou and Y uille [2011] Its moment generating function has the form E[exp(tX)] = Γ(1 τt). As mentioned in Johnson and Balakrishnan [p. Parts of the proof are inspired by a post on stackexchange Xi'an [2016].Theorem 1.
