Criterion

The article says:

E.g. root mean square deviation can be used as the decision criterion[...]

That is a possible decision criterion, but maximum likelihood is itself a decision criterion. In some contexts that two coincide. But maximum likelihood is about maximizing a likelihood function, and the article doesn't attempt to explain the statistical model and hence does not explain where in all this one finds a likelihood function.

I just don't understand how someone writing an article like this can fail to understand that this will offend any reasonable reader. It's like writing an article titled "elephant" that makes no attempt at all to even mention that an elephant is an animal or otherwise at least hint at what it is.
