Abstract

Self-similar stochastic processes are used for stochastic modeling whenever it is expected that long range dependence may be present in the phenomenon under consideration. After discussing some basic concepts of self-similar processes and fractional Brownian motion, we review some recent work on parametric and nonparametric inference for estimation of parameters for linear systems of stochastic differential equations driven by a fractional Brownian motion.
