✦ Synopsis
An asymptotic analysis is presented for estimation in the three-parameter Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process, where the parameters are the local mean, the drift, and the variance. We are interested in the case when the damping parameter (A, or AT = s) is nearly zero. The asymptotic sufficient statistics can be related to noncentral X~ distribution. The maximum likelihood estimate of the parameter vector is a solution of a rather complicated system of equations. We describe the methods for solving maximum-likelihood equations. Classical and robust estimators are determined for parameters. It is shown that the lower confidence limit of the drift (or damping) parameter is equal to zero with positive probability when it is near to zero. (~) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

Let x(t) be an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process and y(t) a diffusion process. Formulae are obtained for the characteristic and probability density functions of x(T(y)), where T(y) is the first passage time of y(t) to the boundary y(t) --d, starting from y.
## Abstract This paper deals with optimal designs for Gaussian random fields with constant trend and exponential correlation structure, widely known as the Ornstein–Uhlenbeck process. Assuming the maximum likelihood approach, we study the optimal design problem for the estimation of the trend µ and
