Discriminative latent-variable models are typically learned using EM or gradient-based optimization, which suffer from local optima. In this paper, we develop a new computationally efficient and provably consistent estimator for a mixture…

Estimating the parameters governing the dynamics of a system is a prerequisite for its optimal control. We present a simple but powerful method that we call STEADY, for STochastic Estimation algorithm for DYnamical variables, to estimate…
Statistical inference for discrete time observations of an affine stochastic delay differential equation is considered. The main focus is on maximum pseudo-likelihood estimators, which are easy to calculate in practice. A more general class…

The linear fractional stable motion generalizes two prominent classes of stochastic processes, namely stable L\'evy processes, and fractional Brownian motion. For this reason it may be regarded as a basic building block for continuous time…
This paper considers a large class of nonlinear integro-differential scalar equations which involve an anomalous diffusion (e.g. driven by a fractional Laplacian) and a non-local singular convolution kernel. Each of those singular equations…
Semilinear stochastic evolution equations with multiplicative L\'evy noise and monotone nonlinear drift are considered. Unlike other similar work we do not impose coercivity conditions on coefficients. Existence and uniqueness of the mild…
We consider the problem of the simulation of Levy-driven stochastic differential equations. It is generally impossible to simulate the increments of a Levy-process. Thus in addition to an Euler scheme, we have to simulate approximately…
