Nonparametric velocity estimation in stochastic convection-diffusion equations from multiple local measurements
Abstract
We investigate pointwise estimation of the function-valued velocity field of a second-order linear SPDE. Based on multiple spatially localised measurements, we construct a weighted augmented MLE and study its convergence properties as the spatial resolution of the observations tends to zero and the number of measurements increases. By imposing Hölder smoothness conditions, we recover the pointwise convergence rate known to be minimax-optimal in the linear regression framework. The optimality of the rate in the current setting is verified by adapting the lower bound ansatz based on the RKHS of local measurements to the nonparametric situation.
