Abstract
Let \(\{B_{z}^{\alpha, \beta},z\in[0,T]^{2} \}\) be a d-dimensional fractional Brownian sheet with Hurst parameters \((\alpha, \beta)\in(0,\frac{1}{2})^{2}\). We consider the problem of parameter estimation for the drift of fractional Brownian sheet B α,β and construct superefficient James–Stein estimators which dominate, under the usual quadratic risk, the natural maximum likelihood estimator.
