Three-factor mean reverting Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process with stochastic drift term innovations: nonlinear autoregressive approach with dependent error


Parisa Nabati, Arezoo Hajrajabi




This paper introduces a novel approach, withen the context of energy market, by employing a three-factor mean reverting Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process with a stochastic nonlinear autoregressive drift term having a dependent error. Initially the unique solvability for the given nonlinear system is investigated. Then, to estimate the nonlinear regression function, a semiparametric method, based on the conditional least square estimator for the parametric approach, and the nonparametric kernel method for autoregressive modification estimation have been presented. A maximum likelihood estimator has been used for parameter estimation of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process. Finally, some numerical simulations and real data studies have been provided to support the main conclusions of the study.
