Nonparametric estimation of item response functions using the EM algorithm
Bock and Aitkin (1981) developed an EM algorithm for the maximum marginal likelihood estimation of parametric item response curves, such that these estimates could be obtained in the absence of the estimation of examinee parameters. Using functional data analytic techniques described by Ramsay and S...
