Regularity, partial regularity, partial information process, for a filtered statistical model
We define ``partial regularity'' for a filtered statistical (semi- parametric) model indexed by \(\theta \in {\mathbb{R}}^ d\), as differentiability in a suitable sense of the partial likelihoods associated with a basic process X. Partial regularity turns out to be equivalent to some sort of differentiability in \(\theta\) of the characteristics of X. We also prove that regularity of the model implies partial regularity, and we define a ``partial information process'', which is smaller than the ``complete information process''. We apply these results to obtain a generalization of Cramér-Rao inequality, and to prove that partial likelihood processes are optimal among all quasi-likelihood processes which are stochastic integrals with respect to the basic process X.
