Nonparametric inference of discretely sampled stable Lévy processes
We study nonparametric inference of stochastic models driven by stable Lévy processes. We introduce a nonparametric estimator of the stable index that achieves the parametric √ n rate of convergence. For the volatility function, due to the heavy-tailedness, the classical least-squares method is not applicable. We then propose a nonparametric least-absolute-deviation or median-quantile estimator...
متن کاملFisher ’ S Information for Discretely Sampled Lévy Processes
This paper studies the asymptotic behavior of the Fisher information for a Lévy process discretely sampled at an increasing frequency. We show that it is possible to distinguish not only the continuous part of the process from its jumps part, but also different types of jumps, and derive the rates of convergence of efficient estimators.
متن کاملNonparametric adaptive estimation for discretely observed Lévy processes
This thesis deals with nonparametric estimation methods for discretely observed Lévy processes. The following statistical framework is considered: A Lévy process X having finite variation on compact sets and finite second moments is observed at low frequency. In this situation, the jump dynamics is fully described by the finite signed measure μ(dx) = xν(dy). The goal is to estimate, nonparametr...
متن کاملBayesian Inference for Discretely Sampled Diffusion Processes: A New MCMC−Based Approach to Inference
For frequentist inference, the efficacy of the closed-form (CF) likelihood approximation of Aı̈t-Sahalia (2002, 2007) in financial modeling has been widely demonstrated. Bayesian inference, however, requires the use of MCMC, and the CF likelihood can become inaccurate when the parameters θ are far from the MLE. Due to numerical stability problems, the samplers can therefore become stuck when (ty...
متن کاملBayesian Inference for Discretely Sampled Markov Processes with closed–form Likelihood Expansions∗
This article proposes a new Bayesian MCMC methodology for estimation of a wide class of multi–dimensional Markov models. Our approach is based on the closed–form (CF) likelihood approximations of Aı̈t-Sahalia (2002, 2008). The The authors are very grateful to the referees and editors for their insightful and valuable comments. The authors also thank John Geweke for his helpful discussion on diag...
