In this paper, we study the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) of the parameter vector of a discrete multivariate crash frequencies model used in the statistical analysis of the effectiveness of a road safety measure. We derive the closed-form expression of the MLE afterwards we prove its strong consistency and we obtain the exact variance of the components of the MLE except one component whose variance is approximated via the delta method.

Abstract This paper studies the quasi-maximum likelihood estimator (QMLE) for the generalized autoregressive conditional heteroscedastic (GARCH) model based on the Laplace (1,1) residuals. The QMLE is proposed to the parameter vector of the GARCH model with the Laplace (1,1) firstly. Under some certain conditions, the strong consistency and asymptotic normality of QMLE are then established. In what follows, a real example with Laplace and normal distribution is analyzed to evaluate the performance of the QMLE and some comparison results on the performance are given. In the end the proofs of some theorem are presented.

The authors examine the asymptotic effect of omitting a random coefficient in the multilevel model and derive expressions for the change in (a) the variance components estimator and (b) the estimated variance of the fixed effects estimator. They apply the method of moments, which yields a closed form expression for the omission effect. In practice, the model parameters are estimated by maximum likelihood; however, since the moment estimator and the maximum likelihood estimator are both consistent, the presented expression for the change in the variance components estimator asymptotically holds for the maximum likelihood estimator as well. The results are illustrated with an analysis of mathematics performance data.
