Dear all, I would like to be directed to any statistical software programme that I can use for maximization of likelihood (e.g by implementing an EM algorithm). I read an articule where the authors used SAS but, I am not able to fish out the procedure under which this was done in SAS. I will be grateful for any useful information on this. Thanks B. O.
