Abstract

In this paper, we consider the asymptotic properties of the maximum likelihood estimator of the drift coefficient in the Rayleigh diffusion process. Via the parameter-dependent change of measure method and precise asymptotic analysis techniques, we obtain the optimal Cramér-type moderate deviations and uniform Berry–Esseen bound.
