A review is given of parametric estimation methods for discretely sampled multivariate diffusion processes. The main focus is on estimating functions and asymptotic results. Maximum likelihood estimation is briefly considered, but the emphasis is on computationally less demanding martingale...

We propose identifying the drift and the diffusion functions of an ergodic scalar stochastic differential equation using repeated eigenfunction estimation. The transition density will be estimated in a new way involving Kolmogorov’s backward equation, neural networks and functions of our...

We introduce a variant of the Barndorff-Nielsen and Shephard stochastic volatility model where the non-Gaussian Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process describes some measure of trading intensity like trading volume or number of trades instead of unobservable instantaneous variance. We develop an explicit...

Model selection is important for longitudinal data analysis. But up to date little work has been done on variable selection for generalized linear mixed models (GLMM). In this paper we propose and study a class of variable selection methods. Full likelihood (FL) approach is proposed for...

This paper presents a novel copula-based autoregressive framework for multilayer arrays of integer-valued time series with tensor structure. It complements recent advances in tensor time series that predominantly focus on real-valued data and overlook the unique properties of integer-valued time...

This paper extends the ordinary quasi-likelihood estimator for stochastic volatility models based on non-Gaussian Ornstein-Uhlenbeck (OU) processes to vector processes. Despite the fact that multivariate modeling of asset returns is essential for portfolio optimization and risk management --...

In the present paper we consider a model for stock prices which is a generalization of the model behind the Black-Scholes formula for pricing European call options. We model the log-price as a deterministic linear trend plus a diffusion process with drift zero and with a diffusion coefficient...
