We develop an estimation procedure for a discrete probability mass function (pmf) with unknown support. We derive its maximum likelihood estimator under the mild and natural shape-constraint of ...

Probability density function is a statistical expression defining the likelihood of a series of outcomes for a continuous variable, such as a stock or ETF return.
