A simultaneous estimation of the vertical and horizontal autocorrelation distances (ACDs) for geotechnical properties under the condition of limited data (fewer than one hundred data points) is not well studied. This paper evaluates the performance of the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) in estima...
