An Introduction to Numerical Algebraic Geometry: Algorithms and Applications This is an Applied Mathematics Colloquium talk, geared to a general audience. It may be of interest to statisticians or anyone who needs to solve systems of polynomial (rational) equations. Examples of such systems arise when computing maximum likelihood estimates of statistical model parameters (i.e., setting derivatives of log-likelihood function to zero and solving). |
