ABSTRACT
The structure of the stochastic process provides a convenient method for
information (given the model being assumed). However, the hypothesis of
market efficiency states that, in general, the expected value of the future
eters of the original stochastic process are not free, but must be con-
strained. The restrictions are highly nonlinear. Section 2.4 will pro-
vide a computationally feasible method for calculating the likelihood func-
