Abstract

This paper is a survey of existing estimation techniques for an unknown drift parameter in stochastic differential equations driven by fractional Brownian motion. We study the cases of continuous and discrete observations of the solution. Special attention is given to the fractional Ornstein–Uhlenbeck model. Mixed models involving both standard and fractional Brownian motion are also considered.
