Suppose that particles are randomly distributed in $bR^d$, and they are subject to identical stochastic motion independently of each other. The Smoluchowski process describes fluctuations of the number of particles in an observation region over time. This paper studies properties of the Smoluchowski processes and considers related statistical problems. In the first part of the paper we revisit probabilistic properties of the Smoluchowski process in a unified and principled way: explicit formulas for generating functionals and moments are derived, conditions for stationarity and Gaussian approximation are discussed, and relations to other stochastic models are highlighted. The second part deals with statistics of the Smoluchowki processes. We consider two different models of the particle displacement process: the undeviated uniform motion (when a particle moves with random constant velocity along a straight line) and the Brownian motion displacement. In the setting of the undeviated uniform motion we study the problems of estimating the mean speed and the speed distribution, while for the Brownian displacement model the problem of estimating the diffusion coefficient is considered. In all these settings we develop estimators with provable accuracy guarantees.

The coefficient function of the leading differential operator is estimated from observations of a linear stochastic partial differential equation (SPDE). The estimation is based on continuous time observations which are localised in space. For the as
ymptotic regime with fixed time horizon and with the spatial resolution of the observations tending to zero, we provide rate-optimal estimators and establish scaling limits of the deterministic PDE and of the SPDE on growing domains. The estimators are robust to lower order perturbations of the underlying differential operator and achieve the parametric rate even in the nonparametric setup with a spatially varying coefficient. A numerical example illustrates the main results.
This paper focuses on the time series generated by the event counts of stationary Hawkes processes. When the exact locations of points are not observed, but only counts over time intervals of fixed size, existing methods of estimation are not applica
ble. We first establish a strong mixing condition with polynomial decay rate for Hawkes processes, from their Poisson cluster structure. This allows us to propose a spectral approach to the estimation of Hawkes processes, based on Whittles method, which provides consistent and asymptotically normal estimates under common regularity conditions on their reproduction kernels. Simulated datasets and a case-study illustrate the performances of the estimation, notably of the Hawkes reproduction mean and kernel when time intervals are relatively large.
In this paper, we propose a method based on GMM (the generalized method of moments) to estimate the parameters of stable distributions with $0<alpha<2$. We dont assume symmetry for stable distributions.
Cluster indices describe extremal behaviour of stationary time series. We consider runs estimators of cluster indices. Using a modern theory of multivariate, regularly varying time series, we obtain central limit theorems under conditions that can be
easily verified for a large class of models. In particular, we show that blocks and runs estimators have the same limiting variance.
Bayesian nonparametric hierarchical priors are highly effective in providing flexible models for latent data structures exhibiting sharing of information between and across groups. Most prominent is the Hierarchical Dirichlet Process (HDP), and its s
ubsequent variants, which model latent clustering between and across groups. The HDP, may be viewed as a more flexible extension of Latent Dirichlet Allocation models (LDA), and has been applied to, for example, topic modelling, natural language processing, and datasets arising in health-care. We focus on analogous latent feature allocation models, where the data structures correspond to multisets or unbounded sparse matrices. The fundamental development in this regard is the Hierarchical Indian Buffet process (HIBP), which utilizes a hierarchy of Beta processes over J groups, where each group generates binary random matrices, reflecting within group sharing of features, according to beta-Bernoulli IBP priors.
