Detailed Description

This class represents a CIR process as in CIRProcess, but the process is generated using the simple Euler scheme.

\[ X(t_j) - X(t_{j-1}) = \alpha(b - X(t_{j-1}))(t_j - t_{j-1}) + \sigma\sqrt{(t_j - t_{j-1})X(t_{j-1})}  Z_j \tag{cir-seq-euler} \]

where \(Z_j \sim N(0,1)\). This is a good approximation only for small time intervals \(t_j - t_{j-1}\).

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ CIRProcessEuler() [1/2]

umontreal.ssj.stochprocess.CIRProcessEuler.CIRProcessEuler ( double x0,
double alpha,
double b,
double sigma,
RandomStream stream )

Constructs a new CIRProcessEuler with parameters \(\alpha=\) alpha, \(b\), \(\sigma=\) sigma and initial value \(X(t_0) =\) x0.

The normal variates \(Z_j\) will be generated by inversion using the stream stream.

Definition at line 55 of file CIRProcessEuler.java.

◆ CIRProcessEuler() [2/2]

umontreal.ssj.stochprocess.CIRProcessEuler.CIRProcessEuler ( double x0,
double alpha,
double b,
double sigma,
NormalGen gen )

The normal variate generator gen is specified directly instead of specifying the stream.

gen can use another method than inversion.

Member Function Documentation

◆ generatePath() [1/2]

double[] umontreal.ssj.stochprocess.CIRProcessEuler.generatePath ( )

Generates, returns, and saves the sample path \(\{X(t_0), X(t_1), \dots, X(t_d)\}\).

It can then be accessed via getPath, getSubpath, or getObservation. The generation method depends on the process type.

Reimplemented from umontreal.ssj.stochprocess.StochasticProcess.

Definition at line 121 of file CIRProcessEuler.java.

◆ generatePath() [2/2]

double[] umontreal.ssj.stochprocess.CIRProcessEuler.generatePath ( RandomStream stream)

Generates a sample path of the process at all observation times, which are provided in array t.

Note that t[0] should be the observation time of x0, the initial value of the process, and t[] should have at least

\(d+1\) elements (see the setObservationTimes method).

Reimplemented from umontreal.ssj.stochprocess.StochasticProcess.

Definition at line 142 of file CIRProcessEuler.java.

◆ getAlpha()

double umontreal.ssj.stochprocess.CIRProcessEuler.getAlpha ( )

Returns the value of \(\alpha\).

Definition at line 180 of file CIRProcessEuler.java.

◆ getB()

double umontreal.ssj.stochprocess.CIRProcessEuler.getB ( )

Returns the value of \(b\).

Definition at line 187 of file CIRProcessEuler.java.

◆ getGen()

NormalGen umontreal.ssj.stochprocess.CIRProcessEuler.getGen ( )

Returns the normal random variate generator used.

The RandomStream used for that generator can be changed via getGen().setStream(stream), for example.

Definition at line 202 of file CIRProcessEuler.java.

◆ getSigma()

double umontreal.ssj.stochprocess.CIRProcessEuler.getSigma ( )

Returns the value of \(\sigma\).

Definition at line 194 of file CIRProcessEuler.java.

◆ getStream()

RandomStream umontreal.ssj.stochprocess.CIRProcessEuler.getStream ( )

Returns the random stream of the normal generator.

Reimplemented from umontreal.ssj.stochprocess.StochasticProcess.

Definition at line 173 of file CIRProcessEuler.java.

◆ nextObservation() [1/3]

double umontreal.ssj.stochprocess.CIRProcessEuler.nextObservation ( )

Generates and returns the next observation \(X(t_j)\) of the stochastic process.

The processes are usually sampled sequentially, i.e. if the last observation generated was for time

\(t_{j-1}\), the next observation returned will be for time \(t_j\). In some cases, subclasses extending this abstract class may use non-sequential sampling algorithms (such as bridge sampling). The order of generation of the \(t_j\)’s is then specified by the subclass. All the processes generated using principal components analysis (PCA) do not have this method.

Reimplemented from umontreal.ssj.stochprocess.StochasticProcess.

Definition at line 71 of file CIRProcessEuler.java.

◆ nextObservation() [2/3]

double umontreal.ssj.stochprocess.CIRProcessEuler.nextObservation ( double nextTime)

Generates and returns the next observation at time \(t_{j+1} =\) nextTime, using the previous observation time \(t_j\) defined earlier (either by this method or by setObservationTimes), as well as the value of the previous observation \(X(t_j)\).

Warning: This method will reset the observations time \(t_{j+1}\) for this process to nextTime. The user must make sure that the \(t_{j+1}\) supplied is

\(\geq t_j\).

Definition at line 94 of file CIRProcessEuler.java.

◆ nextObservation() [3/3]

double umontreal.ssj.stochprocess.CIRProcessEuler.nextObservation ( double x,
double dt )

Generates an observation of the process in dt time units, assuming that the process has value \(x\) at the current time.

Uses the process parameters specified in the constructor. Note that this method does not affect the sample path of the process stored internally (if any).

Definition at line 114 of file CIRProcessEuler.java.

◆ setParams()

void umontreal.ssj.stochprocess.CIRProcessEuler.setParams ( double x0,
double alpha,
double b,
double sigma )

Resets the parameters \(X(t_0) =\) x0, \(\alpha=\) alpha,.

\(b =\) b and \(\sigma=\) sigma of the process. Warning: This method will recompute some quantities stored internally, which may be slow if called too frequently.

Definition at line 154 of file CIRProcessEuler.java.

◆ setStream()

void umontreal.ssj.stochprocess.CIRProcessEuler.setStream ( RandomStream stream)

Resets the random stream of the normal generator to stream.

Reimplemented from umontreal.ssj.stochprocess.StochasticProcess.
