摘要
The likelihood function of a continuous-discrete state space model is computed recursively by Monte Carlo integration, using importance sampling techniques. A functional integral representation of the transition density is utilized and importance densities are obtained by smoothing. Examples are the likelihood surfaces of an AR(2) process, a Ginzburg-Landau model and stock price models with stochastic volatilities.
