Our method can be used to train implicit probabilistic models (a common example being the generator in GANs). Unlike GANs, however, our method does not suffer from mode collapse/dropping and is stable ...

Identify characteristics of “good” estimators and be able to compare competing estimators. Construct sound estimators using the techniques of maximum likelihood and method of moments estimation.

This book provides a general framework for specifying, estimating and testing time series econometric models. Special emphasis is given to estimation by maximum likelihood, but other methods are also ...
