Test for parameter change in discretely observed diffusion processes

摘要

In this paper, we consider the problem of testing for the parameter change in discretely observed diffusion processes. For a test, we perform the cusum test based on the estimator proposed by Kessler (J Stat 24:211–229, 1997). It is shown that the test statistic weakly converges to the sup of the square of a Browian bridge. Simulation results are illustrated for the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck and Cox-Ingersoll-Ross processes.
