Maximum likelihood estimators and random walks in long memory models
We consider statistical models driven by Gaussian and non-Gaussian self-similar processes with long memory and we construct maximum likelihood estimators (MLE) for the drift parameter. Our approach is based in the non-Gaussian case on the approximation by random walks of the driving noise. We study the asymptotic behavior of the estimators and we give some numerical simulations to illustrate ou...
متن کاملConsistency of Semiparametric Maximum Likelihood Estimators for Two-Phase Sampling
Semiparametric maximum likelihood estimators have recently been proposed for a class of two-phase, outcome-dependent sampling models. All of them were "restricted" maximum likelihood estimators, in the sense that the maximization is carried out only over distributions concentrated on the observed values of the covariate vectors. In this paper, the authors give conditions for consistency of thes...
متن کاملConsistency of restricted maximum likelihood estimators of principal components Running Title: Consistency of REML estimators
In this paper we consider two closely related problems : estimation of eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the covariance kernel of functional data based on (possibly) irregular measurements, and the problem of estimating the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the covariance matrix for high-dimensional Gaussian vectors. In Peng and Paul (2007), a restricted maximum likelihood (REML) approach has bee...

متن کاملConsistency of Maximum Likelihood for Continuous-Space Network Models
Network analysis needs tools to infer distributions over graphs of arbitrary size from a single graph. Assuming the distribution is generated by a continuous latent space model which obeys certain natural symmetry and smoothness properties, we establish three levels of consistency for non-parametric maximum likelihood inference as the number of nodes grows: (i) the estimated locations of all no...
