Statistical inference for stochastic processes has advanced significantly due to applications in diverse fields, but challenges remain in high-dimensional settings where parameters are allowed to grow with the sample size. This paper…

In recent work [1] we uncovered intriguing connections between Otto's characterisation of diffusion as entropic gradient flow [16] on one hand and large-deviation principles describing the microscopic picture (Brownian motion) on the other.…
