Self-Similar Processes, Fractional Brownian Motion and Statistical Inference
نویسنده
چکیده
Self-similar stochastic processes are used for stochastic modeling whenever it is expected that long range dependence may be present in the phenomenon under consideration. After discusing some basic concepts of self-similar processes and fractional Brownian motion, we review some recent work on parametric and nonparametric inference for estimation of parameters for linear systems of stochastic differential equations driven by a fractional Brownian motion.

Blind Source Separation for Operator Self-similar Processes
Self-similarity and operator self-similarity. An R-valued signal {Y (t)} is said to be operator self-similar (o.s.s) when it satisfies the scaling relation {Y (at)}t∈R fdd = {aY (t)}t∈R, a > 0, where fdd denotes the finite dimensional distributions, H is called the Hurst matrix, and a is given by the matrix exponential ∑∞ k=0 log(a) H k! . O.s.s processes naturally generalize the univariate sel...
متن کاملFractional Lévy motion through path integrals
Abstract. Fractional Lévy motion (fLm) is the natural generalization of fractional Brownian motion in the context of self-similar stochastic processes and stable probability distributions. In this paper we give an explicit derivation of the propagator of fLm by using path integral methods. The propagators of Brownian motion and fractional Brownian motion are recovered as particular cases. The f...

متن کاملGeneralized Fractional Master Equation for Self-Similar Stochastic Processes Modelling Anomalous Diffusion
The Master Equation approach to model anomalous diffusion is considered. Anomalous diffusion in complex media can be described as the result of a superposition mechanism reflecting inhomogeneity and nonstationarity properties of the medium. For instance, when this superposition is applied to the time-fractional diffusion process, the resulting Master Equation emerges to be the governing equatio...
