Abstract

We propose identifying the drift and the diffusion functions of an ergodic scalar stochastic differential equation using repeated eigenfunction estimation. The transition density will be estimated in a new way involving Kolmogorov’s backward equation, neural networks and functions of our choice. Martingale estimating functions will be used to obtain asymptotic properties.
