7-1 Introduction• The field of statistical inference consists of those methods used to make decisions or to draw conclusions about a population.
• These methods utilize the information contained in a sample from the population in drawing conclusions.
• Statistical inference may be divided into two major areas:
• Parameter estimation
• Hypothesis testing

7-3 Methods of Point Estimation
Complications in Using Maximum Likelihood Estimation
• It is not always easy to maximize the likelihood function because the equation(s) obtained from dL()/d = 0 may be difficult to solve.
• It may not always be possible to use calculus methods directly to determine the maximum of L().
