Adaptive wavelet estimation of the diffusion coefficient under additive error measurements

چکیده
We study nonparametric estimation of the diffusion coefficient from discrete data, when the observations are blurred by additional noise. Such issues have been developed over the last 10 years in several application fields and in particular in high frequency financial data modelling, however mainly from a parametric and semiparametric point of view. This paper addresses the nonparametric estimation of the path of the (possibly stochastic) diffusion coefficient in a relatively general setting. By developing pre-averaging techniques combined with wavelet thresholding, we construct adaptive estimators that achieve a nearly optimal rate within a large scale of smoothness constraints of Besov type. Since the diffusion coefficient is usually genuinely random, we propose a new criterion to assess the quality of estimation; we retrieve the usual minimax theory when this approach is restricted to a deterministic diffusion coefficient. In particular, we take advantage of recent results of Reiß (Ann. Statist. 39 (2011) 772–802) of asymptotic equivalence between a Gaussian diffusion with additive noise and Gaussian white noise model, in order to prove a sharp lower bound. Résumé. On étudie l’estimation non-paramétrique du coefficient de diffusion à partir d’observations discrètes, lorsque les observations sont bruitées par un bruit additionnel. De tels problèmes se sont développés au cours des dix dernières années dans plusieurs champs d’application, en particuler pour la modélisation des données haute fréquence en finance, cependant plutôt d’un point de vue paramétrique ou semi-paramétrique. Ce travail concerne l’estimation de la trajectoire (éventuellement stochastique) du coefficient de diffusion dans un cadre relativement général. En développant des techniques de pré-moyennage combinées avec du seuillage des coefficients d’ondelettes, nous contruisons des estimateurs adaptatifs qui atteignent une vitesse quasi-optimale parmi une vaste échelle de contraintes de régularité de type Besov. Puisque le coefficient de diffusion est souvent intrinsèquement aléatoire, nous proposons un nouveau critère pour qualifier la qualité d’estimation ; nous retrouvons la théorie minimax usuelle lorsque cette approche est restreinte à un coefficient de diffusion déterministe. En particulier, on exploite les résultats récents de Reiß (Ann. Statist. 39 (2011) 772–802) de l’équivalence asymptotique entre une diffusion gaussienne avec un bruit additif et le bruit blanc gaussien. MSC: 62G99; 62M99; 60G99

متن کاملEstimating probability of presence of a signal of interest in multiresolution single- and multiband image denoising
We develop three novel wavelet domain denoising methods for subband-adaptive, spatiallyadaptive and multivalued image denoising. The core of our approach is estimation of the probability that a given coefficient contains a significant noise-free component, which we call “signal of interest”. In this respect we analyze cases where the probability of signal presence is (i) fixed per subband, (ii)...

Removing noise from images is a challenging problem in digital image processing.

The performance of the MAP estimator depends on the proposed model for noise-free wavelet coefficients. Thus in the wa...
