Parameter estimation for the skew Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes based on discrete observations.

In this paper, the drift parameter estimation for the one-dimensional skew Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process is considered. We derived the moment estimator in terms of the sample moments and invariant density. Then, we proved the strong consistency and asymptotic normality. Finally, some numerical experiments are presented to show the effect of the moment estimator. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
