Abstract: | The adaptive estimation procedure of the model reference adaptive system is modified and applied to counting process models. Maximum likelihood estimates constitute a subclass of the adaptive estimators considered. The adaptive estimator is shown to be strongly consistent and to converge in law to a normal variate. Applications are considered; for example properties of the adaptive estimate are obtained for a periodic intensity model. |
