Abstract :
We propose new estimation methods for the Ising field parameter based on an explicit expression for the partition function. This expression is known for a long time, but, to the best of our knowledge, it has never been used for parameter estimation. The paper develops standard Bayesian estimates and proposes a numerical comparative evaluation.
