Maximum Likelihood Methods in Unknown Latent Variables (Maximum Likelihood Methods in Unknown Latent Variables)

Description

In this problem, the goal is to compute maximum-likelihood estimates when the observations can be viewed as incomplete data.

$n$: number of observations in sample

$r$: number of parameters + latent variables
