Abstract
This paper deals with the problem of parameter estimation in a class of stochastic differential equations driven by a fractional Brownian motion with \(H \ge 1/2\) and a discontinuous coefficient in the diffusion. Two Bayesian type estimators are proposed for the diffusion parameters based on Markov Chain Monte Carlo and Approximate Bayesian Computation methods.
