Conditional least squares estimators for multitype Galton-Watson processes

The goal of the paper is to estimate the first four moments of the offspring and innovation distributions of subcritical, time-homogeneous multitype Galton-Watson processes. We apply the CLS (Conditional Least Squares) and the WCLS (Weighted Conditional Least Squares) methods for this purpose. It is...

Tartalmi kivonat:The goal of the paper is to estimate the first four moments of the offspring and innovation distributions of subcritical, time-homogeneous multitype Galton-Watson processes. We apply the CLS (Conditional Least Squares) and the WCLS (Weighted Conditional Least Squares) methods for this purpose. It is also shown that under the proper moment conditions the estimators are strongly consistent and the ones of the first two moments are asymptotically normal.
