	The same space of parameters, namely <math>\widehat{{{\rho }_{1,\text{ }}}}</math> <math>\widehat{{{\beta }_{1}}},</math> <math>\widehat{{{\eta }_{1}}},</math> <math>\widehat{{{\rho }_{2,\text{ }}}}\widehat{{{\beta }_{2}}},</math> <math>\widehat{{{\eta }_{2}}},...,</math> <math>\widehat{{{\rho }_{S,}}\text{ }}\widehat{{{\beta }_{S}}},</math> <math>\widehat{{{\eta }_{S}}},</math> is also used under the MLE method, using the likelihood function as given in Appendix C of this reference. Weibull++ uses the EM algorithm, short for Expectation-Maximization algorithm, for the MLE analysis. Details on the numerical procedure are beyond the scope of this reference.
