Error in optim
I understand that the likelihood function is a product and hence the log likelihood function is a sum. However I can't figure out what the problem is. Here's the likelihood function: [(alpha1*beta2*gamma)^v1 exp^(-alpha1*beta2*gamma)]/v1! * [(alpha2*beta1)^v2 exp^(-alpha2*beta1)]/v2! Isn't the log-likelihood function as I calculated before?
