Abstract

Using the maximum likelihood principle, nonparametric estimators are derived for discrete time nonhomogeneous Markov chains. As the number of observed chains becomes large, asymptotic unbiasedness and strong consistency of the estimators are proved, as well as asymptotic distribution results. Finally the estimators are compared with ones which have been proposed in continuous time.
