Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which of the following statements justify the Maximum Likelihood approach?
A
It returns a model that assigns high probability to observed data
B
It minimises the KL divergence KL[p ____ data || p ____ model]
C
It minimises the KL divergence KL[p ____ model || p ____ data]
D
It minimises the reconstruction error of the data
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The KL divergence measures how different two probability distributions are and therefore is natural to measure convergence of the maximum likelihood procedures.

Detailed explanation-2: -Minimizing the K-L divergence is equivalent to minimizing the negative log-likelihood, which is equivalent to maximizing the likelihood between the Poisson model and the data.

Detailed explanation-3: -Which of the following is wrong statement about the maximum likelihood method’s steps? Explanation: The rates of all possible substitutions are chosen so that the base composition remains the same.
