Maximum Likelihood Drift Estimation for Multiscale Diffusions
We study the problem of parameter estimation using maximum likelihood for fast/slow systems of stochastic differential equations. Our aim is to shed light on the problem of model/data mismatch at small scales. We consider two classes of fast/slow problems for which a closed coarse-grained equation for the slow variables can be rigorously derived, which we refer to as averaging and homogenizatio...
متن کاملMaximum Likelihood Estimation of Econometric Frontier Functions*
The estimation of production functions has been one of the more popular areas of applied econometrics. Recent work in duality theory which has linked production and cost functions has made this topic even more attractive. Typically, least squares (or some variant, such as two stage or generalized least squares) is used to estimate the model of interest in accordance with the assumption of a nor...
متن کاملMaximum Likelihood Estimation of Parameters in Generalized Functional Linear Model
Sometimes, in practice, data are a function of another variable, which is called functional data. If the scalar response variable is categorical or discrete, and the covariates are functional, then a generalized functional linear model is used to analyze this type of data. In this paper, a truncated generalized functional linear model is studied and a maximum likelihood approach is used to esti...
متن کاملMaximum Penalized Quasi-likelihood Estimation of the Diffusion Function
We develop a maximum penalized quasi-likelihood estimator for estimating in a nonparametric way the diffusion function of a diffusion process, as an alternative to more traditional kernel-based estimators. After developing a numerical scheme for computing the maximizer of the penalized maximum quasi-likelihood function, we study the asymptotic properties of our estimator by way of simulation. U...
متن کاملPreference Functions that Score Rankings and Maximum Likelihood Estimation
A preference function (PF) takes a set of votes (linear orders over a set of alternatives) as input, and produces one or more rankings (also linear orders over the alternatives) as output. Such functions have many applications, for example, aggregating the preferences of multiple agents, or merging rankings (of, say, webpages) into a single ranking. The key issue is choosing a PF to use. One na...
