Description

2021-03634 - Post-Doctoral Research Visit F/M Inference and miss- specification for Hawkes and related processes

Level of qualifications required : PhD or equivalent

Fonction : Post-Doctoral Research Visit

Level of experience : Recently graduated

Assignments :

Hawkes processes (Hawkes, 1971) are models of point processes which present self-excitation. With their extensions (marked, multivariate, ...), they are nowadays used as models in many domains: seismology, finance (high-frequency, contagion), neurosciences, insurance, social networks analysis, and so on.

Thus, even in the simples cases, the inference of their parameters of such models is challenging: lack of convexity (Santos et al, 2021), miss- specifications when the so-called branching ratio is close to 1 (Filiminov and Sornette, 2015). In addition, when the stationary regime is reached, the Hawkes process shares some characteristics of a Poisson process. The impact on the quality of the inference seems not to have been quantified. Besides, real situations implies to deal also with noisy or missing data (Deutsch and Ross, 2020).

The goal of the post-doctoral research is to give a deep look at the miss- specification problem in the inference of Hawkes processes, as well as to develop suitable methods to estimate the parameters or other informations contained in the observed process (value of marks, identification of the branching structures, ...), with an interest given on quantifying the estimation errors and to deal with practical situations.
