متن کاملEstimation of Hidden Frequencies for 2d Stationary Processes
We study a stationary random ®eld model that is composed of a signal of an unknown number of sine and cosine functions, and a coloured noise. This model has been used in image analysis and modelling spatial data, and is useful for signal extraction in the presence of coloured noise. The problem is to estimate the number of unknown frequencies and the unknown frequencies. The analogous time seri...
متن کاملSemiparametric Estimation of Locally Stationary Diffusion Models
This paper proposes a class of locally stationary diffusion processes. The model has a time varying but locally linear drift and a volatility coefficient that is allowed to vary over time and space. We propose estimators of all the unknown quantities based on long span data. Our estimation method makes use of the local stationarity. We establish asymptotic theory for the proposed estimators as ...
متن کاملAncestral character estimation under the threshold model from quantitative genetics.
Evolutionary biology is a study of life's history on Earth. In researching this history, biologists are often interested in attempting to reconstruct phenotypes for the long extinct ancestors of living species. Various methods have been developed to do this on a phylogeny from the data for extant taxa. In the present article, I introduce a new approach for ancestral character estimation for dis...
متن کاملEstimation of evolutionary distances under stationary and nonstationary models of nucleotide substitution.
Estimation of evolutionary distances has always been a major issue in the study of molecular evolution because evolutionary distances are required for estimating the rate of evolution in a gene, the divergence dates between genes or organisms, and the relationships among genes or organisms. Other closely related issues are the estimation of the pattern of nucleotide substitution, the estimation...
