Mar 5, 2018 at 14:52 comment added David Dale @born_to_hula, if you mean the value 0.5366, it is just the parameter of Zipf distribution, just like mean and variance for Normal distribution, or mean (lambda) for Poisson, or p and r for Negative binomial. To understand how I obtained it, you can read the Wikipedia articles on Zipf law and on MLE.
Mar 5, 2018 at 14:50 comment added born to hula Thanks for your answer - this looks promising! Could you please explain or point me to some material on how to interpret the result you obtained above in regards to calculating the neg_zipf_likelihood?
