Abstract

In this paper we investigate consistency and asymptotic normality of the posterior distribution of the parameters in the stochastic differential equations (SDE’s) with diffusion coefficients depending nonlinearly on a random variables  and  (the random effects).The distributions of the random effects  and  depends on unknown parameters which are to be estimated from the continuous observations of the independent processes . We propose the Gaussian distribution for the random effect  and the exponential distribution for the random effect    , we obtained an explicit formula for the likelihood function and find the estimators of the unknown parameters in the random effects.
