Maximum Likelihood from Incomplete Data Via the <i>EM</i> Algorithm
Summary A broadly applicable algorithm for computing maximum likelihood estimates from incomplete data is presented at various levels of generality. Theory showing the monotone ...
<i>Ab initio</i>molecular dynamics for liquid metals
We present ab initio quantum-mechanical molecular-dynamics calculations based on the calculation of the electronic ground state and of the Hellmann-Feynman forces in the local-d...
Comparison of simple potential functions for simulating liquid water
Classical Monte Carlo simulations have been carried out for liquid water in the NPT ensemble at 25 °C and 1 atm using six of the simpler intermolecular potential functions for t...
