• Estimation of all parameters in the fractional Ornstein–Uhlenbeck model
under discrete observations
• Abstract: Abstract Let the Ornstein–Uhlenbeck process $$(X_t)_{t\ge 0}$$ driven by a fractional Brownian motion $$B^{H }$$ described by $$dX_t = -\theta X_t dt + \sigma dB_t^{H }$$ be observed at discrete time instants $$t_k=kh$$ , $$k=0, 1, 2, \ldots , 2n+2$$ . We propose an ergodic type statistical estimator $${\hat{\theta }}_n$$ , $${\hat{H}}_n$$ and $${\hat{\sigma }}_n$$ to estimate all the parameters $$\theta$$ , H and $$\sigma$$ in the above Ornstein–Uhlenbeck model simultaneously. We prove the strong consistence and the rate of convergence of the estimator. The step size h can be arbitrarily fixed and will not be forced to go zero, which is usually a reality. The tools to use are the generalized moment approach (via ergodic theorem) and the Malliavin calculus.

• How to test that a given process is an Ornstein–Uhlenbeck process
• Abstract: Abstract We show asymptotic distributions of the residual process in Ornstein–Uhlenbeck model, when the model is true. These distributions are of Brownian motion and of Brownian bridge, depending on whether we estimate one parameter or two. This leads to seemingly simple asymptotic theory of goodness of fit tests based on this process. However, next we show that the residual process would lead to a deficient testing procedures, unless a transformed form of it is introduced. The transformed process is introduced and their role is explained through connection with what is known for the so called chimeric alternatives in testing problems for samples.

• Nonparametric model for a tensor field based on high angular resolution
diffusion imaging (HARDI)
• Abstract: Abstract We develop a nonparametric technique for the estimation of curve trajectories using HARDI data. For various regions of the brain, we consider the imaging signal process and apply multivariate kernel smoothing techniques to a general function f describing the signal process obtained from the MRI image. At each location in the brain we search for the direction of maximum diffusion on the unit sphere, and then trace the integral curve driven by the vector field to obtain the estimates of curve trajectories. We establish the convergence of the properly normalized curve estimators to a Gaussian process. This method is computationally efficient as with each step of the curve tracing we construct a pointwise confidence ellipsoid region as opposed to exhaustive iterative sampling methods. These curve trajectories are models of axonal fibers whose location and geometry are important in neuroscience.

• EM algorithm for stochastic hybrid systems
• Abstract: Abstract A stochastic hybrid system, also known as a switching diffusion, is a continuous-time Markov process with state space consisting of discrete and continuous parts. We consider parametric estimation of the Q matrix for the discrete state transitions and of the drift coefficient for the diffusion part. First, we derive the likelihood function under the complete observation of a sample path in continuous-time. Then, extending a finite-dimensional filter for hidden Markov models developed by Elliott et al. (Hidden Markov Models, Springer, 1995) to stochastic hybrid systems, we derive the likelihood function and the EM algorithm under a partial observation where the continuous state is monitored continuously in time, while the discrete state is unobserved.

• Semiparametric estimation for space-time max-stable processes: an F
• Abstract: Abstract Max-stable processes have been expanded to quantify extremal dependence in spatiotemporal data. Due to the interaction between space and time, spatiotemporal data are often complex to analyze. So, characterizing these dependencies is one of the crucial challenges in this field of statistics. This paper suggests a semiparametric inference methodology based on the spatiotemporal F-madogram for estimating the parameters of a space-time max-stable process using gridded data. The performance of the method is investigated through various simulation studies. Finally, we apply our inferential procedure to quantify the extremal behavior of radar rainfall data in a region in the State of Florida.

• On Neyman–Pearson minimax detection of Poisson process intensity
• Abstract: Abstract The problem of the minimax testing of the Poisson process intensity $${\mathbf{s}}$$ is considered. For a given intensity $${\mathbf{p}}$$ and a set $$\mathcal{Q}$$ , the minimax testing of the simple hypothesis $$H_{0}: {\mathbf{s}} = {\mathbf{p}}$$ against the composite alternative $$H_{1}: {\mathbf{s}} = {\mathbf{q}},\,{\mathbf{q}} \in \mathcal{Q}$$ is investigated. The case, when the 1-st kind error probability $$\alpha$$ is fixed and we are interested in the minimal possible 2-nd kind error probability $$\beta ({\mathbf{p}},\mathcal{Q})$$ , is considered. What is the maximal set $$\mathcal{Q}$$ , which can be replaced by an intensity $${\mathbf{q}} \in \mathcal{Q}$$ without any loss of testing performance' In the asymptotic case ( $$T\rightarrow \infty$$ ) that maximal set $$\mathcal{Q}$$ is described.

• The value of the high, low and close in the estimation of Brownian motion
• Abstract: Abstract The conditional density of Brownian motion is considered given the max, $$B(t \max )$$ , as well as those with additional information: $$B(t close, \max )$$ , $$B(t close, \max , \min )$$ where the close is the final value: $$B(t=1)=c$$ and $$t \in [0,1]$$ . The conditional expectation and conditional variance of Brownian motion are evaluated subject to one or more of the statistics: the close (final value), the high (maximum), the low (minimum). Computational results displaying both the expectation and variance in time are presented and compared with the theoretical values. We tabulate the time averaged variance of Brownian motion conditional on knowing various extremal properties of the motion. The final table shows that knowing the high is more useful than knowing the final value among other results. Knowing the open, high, low and close reduces the time averaged variance to $$42\%$$ of the value of knowing only the open and close (Brownian bridge).

• The robust focused information criterion for strong mixing stochastic
processes with $$\mathscr {L}^{2}$$ L 2 -differentiable parametric
densities
• Abstract: Abstract Claeskens and Hjort (J Am Stat Assoc 98(464):900–916, 2003) constructed the focused information criterion (FIC) using maximum likelihood estimators to facilitate the contextual selection of probability models for independently distributed observations. We generalize these results to the case of stationary, strong mixing stochastic processes exhibiting outliers when the “true” finite dimensional distribution of the process lies in the contamination neighbourhood of the assumed parametric model for the process. Given the natural filtration of a stochastic process, we obtain the FIC using robust M-estimators having bounded conditional influence functions. We utilize Le Cam’s contiguity lemmas to tract the parametric form of the asymptotic bias of M-estimators under model misspecification induced by additive outliers. The local asymptotic normality is established assuming the finite dimensional parametric density of the process to be $$\mathscr {L}^{2}$$ -differentiable (differentiable in quadratic mean). As a result, our theory is also applicable for constructing FIC for moderately irregular models outside the exponential family such as Laplace and related densities. We apply our results to derive the robust FIC for simultaneous selection of the order and the innovation density of asymmetric Laplace autoregressive processes observed with outliers. We demonstrate our theory with the focused modeling of United States Dollar to Indian Rupee currency exchange rates exhibiting outliers post Indian demonetization.

• Drift estimation for a Lévy-driven Ornstein–Uhlenbeck process
with heavy tails
• Abstract: Abstract We consider the problem of estimation of the drift parameter of an ergodic Ornstein–Uhlenbeck type process driven by a Lévy process with heavy tails. The process is observed continuously on a long time interval [0, T], $$T\rightarrow \infty$$ . We prove that the statistical model is locally asymptotic mixed normal and the maximum likelihood estimator is asymptotically efficient.

• Optimal iterative threshold-kernel estimation of jump diffusion processes
• Abstract: Abstract In this paper, we propose a new threshold-kernel jump-detection method for jump-diffusion processes, which iteratively applies thresholding and kernel methods in an approximately optimal way to achieve improved finite-sample performance. As in Figueroa-López and Nisen (Stoch Process Appl 123(7):2648–2677, 2013), we use the expected number of jump misclassifications as the objective function to optimally select the threshold parameter of the jump detection scheme. We prove that the objective function is quasi-convex and obtain a new second-order infill approximation of the optimal threshold in closed form. The approximate optimal threshold depends not only on the spot volatility $$\sigma _t$$ , but also the jump intensity and the value of the jump density at the origin. Estimation methods for these quantities are then developed, where the spot volatility is estimated by a kernel estimator with thresholding and the value of the jump density at the origin is estimated by a density kernel estimator applied to those increments deemed to contain jumps by the chosen thresholding criterion. Due to the interdependency between the model parameters and the approximate optimal estimators built to estimate them, a type of iterative fixed-point algorithm is developed to implement them. Simulation studies for a prototypical stochastic volatility model show that it is not only feasible to implement the higher-order local optimal threshold scheme but also that this is superior to those based only on the first order approximation and/or on average values of the parameters over the estimation time period.

• Simultaneous Testing of Change-Point Location and of a Regular Parameter
by Poisson Observations
• Abstract: Abstract The problem of hypothesis testing is considered in the case of observation of an inhomogeneous Poisson process with an intensity function depending on two parameters. It is supposed that the dependence on the first of them is sufficiently regular, while the second one is a change-point location. Under the null hypothesis the parameters take some known values, while under the alternative they are greater (with at least one of the inequalities being strict). Four test are studied: the general likelihood ratio test (GLRT), the Wald’s test and two Bayesian tests (BT1 and BT2). For each of the tests, expressions allowing to approximate its threshold and its limit power function by Monte Carlo numerical simulations are derived. Moreover, for the GLRT, an analytic equation for the threshold and an analytic expression of the limit power function are obtained. Finally, numerical simulations are carried out and the performance of the tests is discussed.

• Nonparametric estimation for i.i.d. Gaussian continuous time moving
average models
• Abstract: Abstract We consider a Gaussian continuous time moving average model $$X(t)=\int _0^t a(t-s)dW(s)$$ where W is a standard Brownian motion and a(.) a deterministic function locally square integrable on $${{\mathbb {R}}}^+$$ . Given N i.i.d. continuous time observations of $$(X_i(t))_{t\in [0,T]}$$ on [0, T], for $$i=1, \dots , N$$ distributed like $$(X(t))_{t\in [0,T]}$$ , we propose nonparametric projection estimators of $$a^2$$ under different sets of assumptions, which authorize or not fractional models. We study the asymptotics in T, N (depending on the setup) ensuring their consistency, provide their nonparametric rates of convergence on functional regularity spaces. Then, we propose a data-driven method corresponding to each setup, for selecting the dimension of the projection space. The findings are illustrated through a simulation study.

• Polynomials under Ornstein–Uhlenbeck noise and an application to
inference in stochastic Hodgkin–Huxley systems
• Abstract: Abstract We discuss estimation problems where a polynomial $$s\rightarrow \sum _{i=0}^\ell \vartheta _i s^i$$ with strictly positive leading coefficient is observed under Ornstein–Uhlenbeck noise over a long time interval. We prove local asymptotic normality (LAN) and specify asymptotically efficient estimators. We apply this to the following problem: feeding noise $$dY_t$$ into the classical (deterministic) Hodgkin–Huxley model in neuroscience, with $$Y_t=\vartheta t + X_t$$ and X some Ornstein–Uhlenbeck process with backdriving force $$\tau$$ , we have asymptotically efficient estimators for the pair $$(\vartheta ,\tau )$$ ; based on observation of the membrane potential up to time n, the estimate for $$\vartheta$$ converges at rate $$\sqrt{n^3\,}$$ .

• Joint estimation for volatility and drift parameters of ergodic jump
diffusion processes via contrast function
• Abstract: Abstract In this paper we consider an ergodic diffusion process with jumps whose drift coefficient depends on $$\mu$$ and volatility coefficient depends on $$\sigma$$ , two unknown parameters. We suppose that the process is discretely observed at the instants $$(t^n_i)_{i=0,\ldots ,n}$$ with $$\Delta _n=\sup _{i=0,\ldots ,n-1} (t^n_{i+1}-t^n_i) \rightarrow 0$$ . We introduce an estimator of $$\theta :=(\mu , \sigma )$$ , based on a contrast function, which is asymptotically gaussian without requiring any conditions on the rate at which $$\Delta _n \rightarrow 0$$ , assuming a finite jump activity. This extends earlier results where a condition on the step discretization was needed (see Gloter et al. in Ann Stat 46(4):1445–1480, 2018; Shimizu and Yoshida in Stat Inference Stoch Process 9(3):227–277, 2006) or where only the estimation of the drift parameter was considered (see Amorino and Gloter in Scand J Stat 47:279–346, 2019. https://doi.org/10.1111/sjos.12406). In general situations, our contrast function is not explicit and in practise one has to resort to some approximation. We propose explicit approximations of the contrast function, such that the estimation of $$\theta$$ is feasible under the condition that $$n\Delta _n^k \rightarrow 0$$ where $$k>0$$ can be arbitrarily large. This extends the results obtained by Kessler (Scand J Stat 24(2):211–229, 1997) in the case of continuous processes.

• Efficient parametric estimation for a signal-plus-noise Gaussian model
from discrete time observations
• Abstract: Abstract This paper deals with the parametric inference for integrated continuous time signals embedded in an additive Gaussian noise and observed at deterministic discrete instants which are not necessarily equidistant. The unknown parameter is multidimensional and compounded of a signal-of-interest parameter and a variance parameter of the noise. We state the consistency and the minimax efficiency of the maximum likelihood estimator and of the Bayesian estimator when the time of observation tends to infinity and the delays between two consecutive observations tend to 0 or are only bounded. The class of signals in consideration contains among others, almost periodic signals and also non-continuous periodic signals. However the problem of frequency estimation is not considered here. Furthermore, in this paper the signal-plus-noise discretely observed in time model is considered as a particular case of a more general model of independent Gaussian observations forming a triangular array.

• The semi-Markov beta-Stacy process: a Bayesian non-parametric prior for
semi-Markov processes.
• Abstract: Abstract The literature on Bayesian methods for the analysis of discrete-time semi-Markov processes is sparse. In this paper, we introduce the semi-Markov beta-Stacy process, a stochastic process useful for the Bayesian non-parametric analysis of semi-Markov processes. The semi-Markov beta-Stacy process is conjugate with respect to data generated by a semi-Markov process, a property which makes it easy to obtain probabilistic forecasts. Its predictive distributions are characterized by a reinforced random walk on a system of urns.

• Recursive nonparametric regression estimation for dependent strong mixing
functional data
• Abstract: Abstract In the present paper, we extend the work of Slaoui (Stat Sin 30:417–437, 2020) in the case of strong mixing data. Since, we are interested in nonparametric regression estimation, we focus on well adapted dependence structures based on mixing type conditions. We study the properties of these regression estimators and compare them with the nonparametric non-recursive regression estimator. The bias, variance and mean squared error are computed explicitly. We showed that using a selected wild bootstrap bandwidth procedure and a special stepsize, our proposed recursive regression estimators allowed us to obtain quite similar results compared to the non-recursive regression estimator under $$\alpha$$ -mixing condition in terms of estimation error and much better in terms of computational costs.

• Parametric inference for hypoelliptic ergodic diffusions with full
observations
• Abstract: Abstract Multidimensional hypoelliptic diffusions arise naturally in different fields, for example to model neuronal activity. Estimation in those models is complex because of the degenerate structure of the diffusion coefficient. In this paper we consider hypoelliptic diffusions, given as a solution of two-dimensional stochastic differential equations, with the discrete time observations of both coordinates being available on an interval $$T = n\varDelta _n$$ , with $$\varDelta _n$$ the time step between the observations. The estimation is studied in the asymptotic setting, with $$T\rightarrow \infty$$ as $$\varDelta _n\rightarrow 0$$ . We build a consistent estimator of the drift and variance parameters with the help of a discretized log-likelihood of the continuous process. We discuss the difficulties generated by the hypoellipticity and provide a proof of the consistency and the asymptotic normality of the estimator. We test our approach numerically on the hypoelliptic FitzHugh–Nagumo model, which describes the firing mechanism of a neuron.

• Nonparametric drift estimation for diffusions with jumps driven by a
Hawkes process
• Abstract: Abstract We consider a 1-dimensional diffusion process X with jumps. The particularity of this model relies in the jumps which are driven by a multidimensional Hawkes process denoted N. This article is dedicated to the study of a nonparametric estimator of the drift coefficient of this original process. We construct estimators based on discrete observations of the process X in a high frequency framework with a large horizon time and on the observations of the process N. The proposed nonparametric estimator is built from a least squares contrast procedure on subspace spanned by trigonometric basis vectors. We obtain adaptive results that are comparable with the one obtained in the nonparametric regression context. We finally conduct a simulation study in which we first focus on the implementation of the process and then on showing the good behavior of the estimator.

• Oscillating Gaussian processes
• Abstract: Abstract In this article we introduce and study oscillating Gaussian processes defined by $$X_t = \alpha _+ Y_t \mathbf{1}_{Y_t >0} + \alpha _- Y_t\mathbf{1}_{Y_t<0}$$, where $$\alpha _+,\alpha _->0$$ are free parameters and Y is either stationary or self-similar Gaussian process. We study the basic properties of X and we consider estimation of the model parameters. In particular, we show that the moment estimators converge in $$L^p$$ and are, when suitably normalised, asymptotically normal.
