似然比统计量的几何理解AI 解读

It is well known that twice a log-likelihood ratio statistic follows asymptotically a chi-square distribution. The result is usually understood and proved via Taylor's expansions of likelihood functions and by assuming asymptotic normality of maximum likelihood estimators (MLEs). We obtain more general results by using a different approach: The Wilks type of results hold as long as likelihood contour sets are fan-shaped. The classical Wilks theorem corresponds to the…
