Abstract

We consider adaptive maximum-likelihood-type estimators and adaptive Bayes-type ones for discretely observed ergodic diffusion processes with observation noise whose variance is constant. The quasi-likelihood functions for the diffusion and drift parameters are introduced and the polynomial-type large deviation inequalities for those quasi-likelihoods are shown to see the asymptotic properties of the adaptive Bayes-type estimators and the convergence of moments for both adaptive maximum-likelihood-type estimators and adaptive Bayes-type ones.
