The expectation maximization (EM) algorithm is a popular, and often remarkably simple, method for maximum likelihood estimation in incomplete-data problems. One criticism of EM in practice is that ...
In a general normal regression model, this paper first derives the least upper bound (LUB) for the covariance matrix of a generalized least squares estimator (GLSE) relative to the covariance matrix ...
