Estimation for heavy tailed moving average process

Hakim Ouadjed, Tawfiq Fawzi Mami (2018)

Kybernetika

In this paper, we propose two estimators for a heavy tailed MA(1) process. The first is a semi parametric estimator designed for MA(1) driven by positive-value stable variables innovations. We study its asymptotic normality and finite sample performance. We compare the behavior of this estimator in which we use the Hill estimator for the extreme index and the estimator in which we use the t-Hill in order to examine its robustness. The second estimator is for MA(1) driven by stable variables innovations...

Estimation in autoregressive model with measurement error

Jérôme Dedecker, Adeline Samson, Marie-Luce Taupin (2014)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Consider an autoregressive model with measurement error: we observe Zi = Xi + εi, where the unobserved Xi is a stationary solution of the autoregressive equation Xi = gθ0(Xi − 1) + ξi. The regression function gθ0 is known up to a finite dimensional parameter θ0 to be estimated. The distributions of ξ1 and X0 are unknown and gθ belongs to a large class of parametric regression functions. The distribution of ε0is completely known. We propose an estimation procedure with a new criterion computed as...

Estimation of a smoothness parameter by spline wavelets

Magdalena Meller, Natalia Jarzębkowska (2013)

Applicationes Mathematicae

We consider the smoothness parameter of a function f ∈ L²(ℝ) in terms of Besov spaces B 2 , s ( ) , s * ( f ) = s u p s > 0 : f B 2 , s ( ) . The existing results on estimation of smoothness [K. Dziedziul, M. Kucharska and B. Wolnik, J. Nonparametric Statist. 23 (2011)] employ the Haar basis and are limited to the case 0 < s*(f) < 1/2. Using p-regular (p ≥ 1) spline wavelets with exponential decay we extend them to density functions with 0 < s*(f) < p+1/2. Applying the Franklin-Strömberg wavelet p = 1, we prove that the presented estimator...

Estimation of reduced Palm distributions by random methods for Cox processes with unknown probability law

Emmanuelle Crétois (1995)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Let N i , i ≥ 1, be i.i.d. observable Cox processes on [a,b] directed by random measures Mi. Assume that the probability law of the Mi is completely unknown. Random techniques are developed (we use data from the processes N 1 ,..., N n to construct a partition of [a,b] whose extremities are random) to estimate L(μ,g) = E(exp(-(N(g) - μ(g))) | N - μ ≥ 0).

Estimation of second order parameters using probability weighted moments

Julien Worms, Rym Worms (2012)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

The P.O.T. method (Peaks Over Threshold) consists in using the generalized Pareto distribution (GPD) as an approximation for the distribution of excesses over a high threshold. In this work, we use a refinement of this approximation in order to estimate second order parameters of the model using the method of probability-weighted moments (PWM): in particular, this leads to the introduction of a new estimator for the second order parameter ρ, which will be compared to other recent estimators through...

Estimation of summary characteristics from replicated spatial point processes

Zbyněk Pawlas (2011)

Kybernetika

Summary characteristics play an important role in the analysis of spatial point processes. We discuss various approaches to estimating summary characteristics from replicated observations of a stationary point process. The estimators are compared with respect to their integrated squared error. Simulations for three basic types of point processes help to indicate the best way of pooling the subwindow estimators. The most appropriate way depends on the particular summary characteristic, edge-correction...
