摘要
In this paper, we give a definition of the alternating iterative maximum likelihood estimator (AIMLE) which is a biased estimator. Furthermore we adjust the AIMLE to result in asymptotically unbiased and consistent estimators by using a bootstrap iterative bias correction method as in Kuk (1995). Two examples and simulation results reported illustrate the performance of the bias correction for AIMLE.
