On Estimation of Regularity for Gaussian Processes
نویسنده
چکیده
We consider a real Gaussian process X with unknown smoothness r0 where r0 is a nonnegative integer and the mean-square derivative X (r0) is supposed to be locally stationary of index β0. From n + 1 equidistant observations, we propose and study an estimator of (r0, β0) based on results for quadratic variations of the underlying process. Various numerical studies of these estimators derive their properties for finite sample size and different types of processes, and are also completed by two examples of application to real data.

Gaussian Approximation of Local EmpiricalProcesses Indexed
An extended notion of a local empirical process indexed by functions is introduced, which includes kernel density and regression function estimators and the conditional empirical process as special cases. Under suitable regularity conditions a central limit theorem and a strong approximation by a sequence of Gaussian processes are established for such processes. A compact law of the iterated lo...
متن کاملMaximum a Posteriori Parameter
An iterative stochastic algorithm to perform maximum a posteriori parameter estimation of hidden Markov models is proposed. It makes the most of the statistical model by introducing an artiicial probability model based on an increasing number of the unobserved Markov chain at each iteration. Under minor regularity assumptions, we provide suucient conditions to ensure global convergence of this ...
متن کاملAsymptotic analysis of the role of spatial sampling for covariance parameter estimation of Gaussian processes
Covariance parameter estimation of Gaussian processes is analyzed in an asymptotic framework. The spatial sampling is a randomly perturbed regular grid and its deviation from the perfect regular grid is controlled by a single scalar regularity parameter. Consistency and asymptotic normality are proved for the Maximum Likelihood and Cross Validation estimators of the covariance parameters. The a...
متن کاملComplete convergence of moving-average processes under negative dependence sub-Gaussian assumptions
The complete convergence is investigated for moving-average processes of doubly infinite sequence of negative dependence sub-gaussian random variables with zero means, finite variances and absolutely summable coefficients. As a corollary, the rate of complete convergence is obtained under some suitable conditions on the coefficients.
متن کاملNSTITUTE 2015 : 06 Regularity of Gaussian Processes on Dirichlet Spaces
We are interested in the regularity of centered Gaussian processes (Z x (ω)) x∈M indexed by compact metric spaces (M, ρ). It is shown that the almost everywhere Besov space regularity of such a process is (almost) equivalent to the Besov regularity of the covariance K(x, y) = E(Z x Z y) under the assumption that (i) there is an underlying Dirichlet structure on M which determines the Besov spac...
