Maximum Likelihood Estimation for a Markov-Modulated Jump-Diffusion Model
马尔可夫调制跳跃扩散模型的最大似然估计
We propose a method for obtaining maximum likelihood estimates (MLEs) of a Markov-Modulated Jump-Diffusion Model (MMJDM) when the data is a discrete time sample of the diffusion process, the jumps follow a Laplace distribution, and the parameters of the diffusion are controlled by a Markov Jump Process (MJP). The data can be viewed as incomplete observation of a model with a tractable likelihood function. Therefore we use the EM-algorithm to obtain MLEs of the parameters. We…
