11 M67 most probable members and age estimation using BASTI isochrones The model and the likelihood function A. Uribe, R. Barrera, A. Higuera, E. Brieva A Yale symposium in honor of Bill Van Altena September 2008 PM bivariate normal components for the field and cluster stars Mark H. Slovak

12 M67 most probable members and age estimation using BASTI isochrones The model and the likelihood function A. Uribe, R. Barrera, A. Higuera, E. Brieva A Yale symposium in honor of Bill Van Altena September 2008 The EM algorithm This has been the statistical approach to estimate the parameters of the mixture model. This goal is reached because the EM algorithm allows to find a point of the parameter space that maximizes the log- likelihood function through the E and the M steps.
