Nonparametric estimation of the jump rate for non-homogeneous marked renewal processes
This paper is devoted to the nonparametric estimation of the jump rate and the cumulative rate for a general class of non-homogeneous marked renewal processes, defined on a separable metric space. In our framework, the estimation needs only one observation of the process within a long time. Our approach is based on a generalization of the multiplicative intensity model, introduced by Aalen in the seventies. We provide consistent estimators of these two functions, under some assumptions related to...
Nonparametric inference for discretely sampled Lévy processes
Given a sample from a discretely observed Lévy process X = (Xt)t≥0 of the finite jump activity, the problem of nonparametric estimation of the Lévy density ρ corresponding to the process X is studied. An estimator of ρ is proposed that is based on a suitable inversion of the Lévy–Khintchine formula and a plug-in device. The main results of the paper deal with upper risk bounds for estimation of ρ over suitable classes of Lévy triplets. The corresponding lower bounds are also discussed.
