Abstract
The EM algorithm is a widely used technique for finding maximum likelihood (ML) estimates when the data are not fully observed. Despite its popularity for computing ML estimates in unrestricted problems and the need for simplified computations for problems with equality and inequality restrictions, there have been few applications of the algorithm to restricted ML estimation. The EM algorithm is presented for restricted ML estimation and provides its applications to the probit model under equality and inequality restrictions using two small data sets.
