Dear Berend
Thanks for your response. I will write my code and estimate the parameters 
using functions optim() or nlminb(). For the code that I am trying to build for 
estimation the parameters using mle via EM ahgorithm, I will rewrite it and 
reformulated my question about, but before that I need to inquire whether  i 
can control the number of iteration ( maxit) in optim function to get the 
estimation at each step (maxit =1), (M step) and then use them to compute the 
expected values of the log likelihood function ( Estep), estimtng using MLE via 
EM,.  Thank you very much.
