Maximum Likelihood Estimator for Hidden Markov Models in Continuous Time
The paper studies large sample asymptotic properties of the Maximum Likelihood Estimator (MLE) for the parameter of a continuous time Markov chain, observed in white noise. Using the method of weak convergence of likelihoods due to I.Ibragimov and R.Khasminskii [14], consistency, asymptotic normality and convergence of moments are established for MLE under certain strong ergodicity conditions o...
متن کاملMaximum-likelihood estimation for hidden Markov models
Hidden Markov models assume a sequence of random variables to be conditionally independent given a sequence of state variables which forms a Markov chain. Maximum-likelihood estimation for these models can be performed using the EM algorithm. In this paper the consistency of a sequence of maximum-likelihood estimators is proved. Also, the conclusion of the Shannon-McMillan-Breiman theorem on en...
متن کاملLikelihood-ratio tests for hidden Markov models.
We consider hidden Markov models as a versatile class of models for weakly dependent random phenomena. The topic of the present paper is likelihood-ratio testing for hidden Markov models, and we show that, under appropriate conditions, the standard asymptotic theory of likelihood-ratio tests is valid. Such tests are crucial in the specification of multivariate Gaussian hidden Markov models, whi...

متن کاملRecursive algorithms for estimation of hidden Markov models and autoregressive models with Markov regime
This paper is concerned with recursive algorithms for the estimation of hidden Markov models (HMMs) and autoregressive (AR) models under Markov regime. Convergence and rate of convergence results are derived. Acceleration of convergence by averaging of the iterates and the observations are treated. Finally, constant step-size tracking algorithms are presented and examined.
