Syllabus Lecture 01 Describing Inverse Problems Lecture 02 Probability and Measurement Error Part 1 Lecture 03 Probability and Measurement Error Part 2 Lecture 04 The L 2 Norm and Simple Least Squares. Let be a conditional distribution for given the unknown parameter For the observed data the function considered as a function of is called the likelihood function The name likelihood implies that given the value of is more likely to be the tr : Session 1.
