Abstract

We propose a new estimation scheme for estimation of the volatility parameters of a semimartingale with jumps based on a jump detection filter. Our filter uses all of the data to analyze the relative size of increments and to discriminate jumps more precisely. We construct quasi-maximum likelihood estimators and quasi-Bayesian estimators and show limit theorems for them including \(L^p\)-estimates of the error and asymptotic mixed normality based on the framework of the quasi-likelihood analysis. The global jump filters do not need a restrictive condition for the distribution of the small jumps. By numerical simulation, we show that our “global” method obtains better estimates of the volatility parameter than the previous “local” methods.
