estim
Estim is a shorthand or abbreviation often used to denote estimation in technical and scientific contexts. It does not refer to a single, widely recognized entity, but rather to the general act of inferring an unknown quantity from data, observations, or a model. In statistics and data analysis, estimation aims to determine population parameters, predictions, or latent states based on samples.
In estimation theory, an estimator is a rule or formula that assigns a value to the quantity
Common methods of estimation include maximum likelihood estimation (MLE), which selects parameters that maximize the probability
Practical considerations in estimation involve sample size, model specification, measurement error, and the trade-off between bias
