Sampling Designs for Estimating Integrals of Stochastic Processes
随机过程积分估计的抽样设计
The problem of estimating the integral of a stochastic process from observations at a finite number of sampling points is considered. Sacks and Ylvisaker found a sequence of asymptotically optimal sampling designs for general processes with exactly 0 and 1 quadratic mean (q.m.) derivatives using optimal-coefficient estimators, which depend on the process covariance. These results were extended to a restricted class of processes with exactly $K$ q.m. derivatives, for all $K = 0,1,2,\ldots$…
