Relatedness between individuals is central to ecological genetics. Multiple methods are available to quantify relatedness from molecular data, including method-of-moment and maximum-likelihood ...

Haplotype frequency estimation in population data is an important problem in genetics and different methods including expectation maximisation (EM) methods have been proposed. The statistical ...

Some patterned covariance matrices used to model multivariate normal data that do not have explicit maximum likelihood estimates can be viewed as submatrices of larger patterned covariance matrices ...
