Consistent estimation of the intensity function of a cyclic Poisson process
We construct and investigate a consistent kernel-type nonparametric estimator of the intensity function of a cyclic Poisson process when the period is unknown. We do not assume any particular parametric form for the intensity function, nor do we even assume that it is continuous. Moreover, we consider the situation when only a single realization of the Poisson process is available, and only in a bounded window. We prove, in particular, that the proposed estimator is consistent when the size of the window indefinitely expands. We also obtain complete convergence of the estimator.
