Divergence Processes and Weak Convergence of Likelihood Ratio Processes
We analyze a stochastic neuronal network model which corresponds to an all-to-all network of discretized integrate-and-fire neurons where the synapses are failure-prone. This network exhibits different phases of behavior corresponding to synchrony and asynchrony, and we show that this is due to the limiting mean-field system possessing multiple attractors. We also show that this mean-field limit exhibits a first-order phase transition as a function...
Weak laws of large numbers (WLLN), strong laws of large numbers (SLLN), and central limit theorems (CLT) in statistical models differ from those in probability theory in that they should hold uniformly in the family of distributions specified by the model. If a limit law states that for every ε > 0 there exists N such that for all n > N the inequalities |ξₙ| < ε are satisfied and N = N(ε) is explicitly given then we call the law effective. It is trivial to obtain an effective statistical...
Let {bH(t), t∈ℝ} be the fractional brownian motion with parameter 0<H<1. When 1/2<H, we consider diffusion equations of the type X(t)=c+∫0tσ(X(u)) dbH(u)+∫0tμ(X(u)) du. In different particular models where σ(x)=σ or σ(x)=σ x and μ(x)=μ or μ(x)=μ x, we propose a central limit theorem for estimators of H and of σ based on regression methods. Then we give tests of the hypothesis on σ for these models. We also consider functional estimation on σ(⋅)...
Nous étudions un exemple de transformation non uniformément hyperbolique de l’intervalle . Des exemples analogues ont été étudiés par de nombreux auteurs. Notre méthode utilise une théorie spectrale, pour une classe d’opérateurs vérifiant des conditions faibles de Doeblin-Fortet, introduite dans [1]. Elle nous permet, en particulier, de donner une estimation de la vitesse de décroissance des corrélations pour des fonctions non höldériennes.
