Asymptotic Normality of Convoluted Smoothed Kernel Estimation for Scalar Diffusion Model

In this paper, we consider a convoluted smoothed nonparametric approach for the unknown coefficients of diffusion model based on high frequency data. Under regular conditions, we obtain the asymptotic normality for the proposed estimators as the time span T → ∞ and sample interval Δ n → 0. The proce...

Summary:In this paper, we consider a convoluted smoothed nonparametric approach for the unknown coefficients of diffusion model based on high frequency data. Under regular conditions, we obtain the asymptotic normality for the proposed estimators as the time span T → ∞ and sample interval Δ n → 0. The procedure and asymptotic behavior can be applied for both Harris recurrent and positive Harris recurrent processes. The finite-sample benefits of the underlying estimators are verified through Monte Carlo simulation and 15-min high-frequency stock index in Shanghai Stock Exchange for an empirical application.
