Estimation of ordinal pattern probabilities in fractional Brownian motion

چکیده
For equidistant discretizations of fractional Brownian motion (fBm), the probabilities of ordinal patterns of order d = 2 are monotonically related to the Hurst parameter H. By plugging the sample relative frequency of those patterns indicating changes between up and down into the monotonic relation to H, one obtains the Zero Crossing (ZC) estimator of the Hurst parameter which has found considerable attention in mathematical and applied research. In this paper, we generally discuss the estimation of ordinal pattern probabilities in fBm. As it turns out, according to the sufficiency principle, for ordinal patterns of order d = 2 any reasonable estimator is an affine functional of the sample relative frequency of changes. We establish strong consistency of the estimators and show them to be asymptotically normal for H < 3 4 . Further, we derive confidence intervals for the Hurst parameter. Simulation studies show that the ZC estimator has larger variance but less bias than the HEAF estimator of the Hurst parameter.

Estimation of ordinal pattern probabilities in Gaussian processes with stationary increments
The investigation of ordinal pattern distributions is a novel approach to quantifying the complexity of time series and detecting changes in the underlying dynamics. Being fast and robust against monotone distortions, this method is particularly well-suited for the analysis of long biophysical time series where the exact calibration of the measurement device is unknown. In this paper we investi...

On time-dependent neutral stochastic evolution equations with a fractional Brownian motion and infinite delays
In this paper, we consider a class of time-dependent neutral stochastic evolution equations with the infinite delay and a fractional Brownian motion in a Hilbert space. We establish the existence and uniqueness of mild solutions for these equations under non-Lipschitz conditions with Lipschitz conditions being considered as a special case. An example is provided to illustrate the theory
متن کاملOn the Maximum Workload of a Queue Fed by Fractional Brownian Motion
Consider a queue with a stochastic fluid input process modeled as fractional Brownian motion (fBM). When the queue is stable, we prove that the maximum of the workload process observed over an interval of length t grows like γ!log t"1/!2−2H", where H > 1/2 is the self-similarity index (also known as the Hurst parameter) that characterizes the fBM and can be explicitly computed. Consequently, we...
متن کاملParameter estimation for stochastic equations with additive fractional Brownian sheet
We study the maximum likelihood estimator for stochastic equations with additive fractional Brownian sheet. We use the Girsanov transform for the twoparameter fractional Brownian motion, as well as the Malliavin calculus and Gaussian regularity theory.
