Description |
This work has a goal to suggest two iteration processes and the sufficient conditions under which these processes converge and have useful properties. In other words it investigates the probability and the sufficient conditions that have to be satisfied. The use of maximum likelihood equation as well as of the iteration processes that are usually applied is justified only in large samples. An original sample of hunting gun crimes in Greece led the author, based on a discrete probability model, to estimate the distribution of five categories of crimes. Some comparisons are made between the suggested methods concerning the speed of their convergence and accuracy of their results. |
