Abstract

To improve the estimation of drift and diffusion coefficients of stochastic processes in case of a limited amount of usable data due to e.g. non-stationarity of natural systems we suggest to use kernel-based instead of histogram-based regression. We propose a method for bandwidth selection and compare it to a widely used cross-validation method. Kernel-based regression reveals an enhanced ability to estimate drift and diffusion especially for a small amount of data. This allows one to improve resolvability of changes in complex dynamical systems as evidenced by an exemplary analysis of electroencephalographic data recorded from a human epileptic brain.
