Likelihood Function
The likelihood function (often simply called the likelihood) represents the probability of random variable realizations conditional on particular values of the statistical parameters. Thus, when evaluated on a given sample, the likelihood function indicates which parameter values are more ''likely'' than others, in the sense that they would have made the observed data more probable. Consequently, the likelihood is often written as \mathcal(\theta\mid X) instead of P(X \mid \theta), to emphasize that it is to be understood as a function of the parameters \theta instead of the random variable X. In maximum likelihood estimation, the arg max of the likelihood function serves as a point estimate for \theta, while local curvature (approximated by the likelihood's Hessian matrix) indicates the estimate's precision. Meanwhile in Bayesian statistics, parameter estimates are derived from the converse of the likelihood, the so-called posterior probability, which is calculated via Bayes' r ...

Chance (Act Song)
"Chance" is the third single by Act, taken from the only Act album ''Laughter, Tears and Rage''. The single was released by ZTT Records in February 1988 but was quickly withdrawn. This may have something to do with the 12" mix containing an unauthorised sample of ABBA's "Take a Chance on Me". ZTT promptly released the band's fourth single " I Can't Escape from You" a month later. The non-abum B-side "Winner 88" includes in lyrics the lines "The winner takes it all" and "Money, money, money" – both big ABBA hits. The album ''Laughter, Tears and Rage'' was reissued in 2004 as an expanded 3-CD box set, containing practically everything the group released plus a wealth of previously unreleased tracks or versions, but the 12" mix of "Chance" (titled "12/1 Chance") with ABBA samples isn't included. Instead, a completely new remix titled 'Throbbin' Mix' appears, along with the standard album and 7" mixes, and the alternate "(We Give You Another) Chance". "Winner 88" appears in two ver ...
