Abstract:Inference and testing in general point process models such as the Hawkes model is predominantly based on asymptotic approximations for likelihoodbased estimators and tests, as originally developed in Ogata (1978). As an alternative, and to improve finite sample performance, this paper considers bootstrap-based inference for interval estimation and testing. Specifically, for a wide class of point process models we consider a novel bootstrap scheme labeled 'fixed intensity bootstrap' (FIB), where the conditional… Show more
