Fitting of nonnegative physical models based on statistical divergence: application to thermally stimulated depolarization currents by Yasunobu Ando, Shusuke Kasamatsu, Suguru Iwasaki, Yumi Tanaka

“…For example, we show that minimising L2 and Kullback–Leibler divergence is equivalent to least squares and maximum likelihood estimation, respectively, for the parameters of non-negative physical models like a probability distribution. To demonstrate this formalism, parameters were estimated in a theoretical model of the thermally stimulated depolarisation current (TSDC), which has a non-negative but complex exponential form. …”
