Let $X$ be a $d$-dimensional L\'evy process with L\'evy triplet $(\Sigma,\nu,\alpha)$ and $d\geq 2$. Given the low frequency observations $(X_t)_{t=1,\ldots,n}$, the dependence structure of the jumps of $X$ is estimated. The L\'evy measure…
We consider a Poisson process $\Phi$ on a general phase space. The expectation of a function of $\Phi$ can be considered as a functional of the intensity measure $\lambda$ of $\Phi$. Extending earlier results of Molchanov and Zuyev [Math.…

The authors consider the problem of estimating the density $g$ of independent and identically distributed variables $X\_i$, from a sample $Z\_1, ..., Z\_n$ where $Z\_i=X\_i+\sigma\epsilon\_i$, $i=1, ..., n$, $\epsilon$ is a noise…
In many settings it is critical to accurately model the extreme tail behaviour of a random process. Non-parametric density estimation methods are commonly implemented as exploratory data analysis techniques for this purpose as they possess…
Cascades of Poisson processes are probabilistic models for spatio-temporal phenomena in which (i) previous events may trigger subsequent events, and (ii) both the background and triggering processes are conditionally Poisson. Such phenomena…
Normalized random measures with independent increments represent a large class of Bayesian nonaprametric priors and are widely used in the Bayesian nonparametric framework. In this paper, we provide the posterior consistency analysis for…
