I wouldn't ever say it!

I wouldn't ever say it, but I need likelihood for my phd!

Since I think that this is really an almost zero probability event, definitely to remember for the rest of the all Padova XXIV cycle Phd students' life, I forward here the email that I just sent to you all:

Hi guys,
how are you?

I'd need some help:

(English version below Monjed...)
Vi ricordate qual'era la lezione della Salvan in cui abbiamo fatto quella verosimiglianza in cui c'era anche N random, quindi la dovevi scrivere in termini di f(X=x|N=n)p(N=n)? e come si chiama questa cosa (conditional likelihood or something like that)? E se avete il pdf di quella lezione me lo mandate perchè qui non ho niente di stampato, e mi servirebbe. A proposito, se avete tutti i lucidi e avete voglia e tempo di comprimerli e mandarmeli via mail non mi fa schifo, anche perchè l'ilaria sarebbe interessata ad averli...

Do you remember in which TMI course lecture we treated that likelihood in which you have also the sample size N which is random, so you should buil the likelihood somehow in terms of f(X=x|N=n)p(N=n)?
And what about the name of that approach?
And it would be nice if you send me the pdf of that lecture, if you have it...
...better... if you have time could you send all the pdf files of the TMI course in a zip file by email? I don't have it here, and I'd need it...



Bye and thanks!
