Maximum Likelihood Log Likelihood
Need to program some rudimentary fitting for various time series processes. Is there a good source (resource) of maximum likelihood or log likelihood functions corresponding to processes (Vasicek, CIR, Jump Diffusion, GARCH, autoregressive, moving average)? No MATLAB used here - sorry - and also no math wiz here - so I am not all the interested in the derivations. Thanks

Pretty difficult to implement MLE for the processes you are talking about without programming, unfortunately. Try www.Volopta.com.

Matlab's Curve Fitting Toolbox and other applications like Stat::Fit can do fittings for time series for you without coding.

If you dont have MATLAB you should take a look in the NumPy extesion for Python, people says that it can replace the matlab...

And according to the level of complexity you want for your analysis it could be enough.
