Semiparametric estimation in the normal variance-mean mixture model
Denis Vital'evich Belomestny, Vladimir Panov · Statistics · 2018
In this paper we study the problem of statistical inference on the parameters of the semiparametric variance-mean mixtures. This class of mixtures has recently become rather popular in statistical and financial modelling. We design a semiparametric estimation procedure that first estimates the mean of the underlying normal distribution and then recovers non-parametrically the density of the corresponding mixing distribution. We illustrate the performance of our procedure on simulated and real data.
