% This is part of the package EstimHidden devoted to the estimation of
%
% 1/ the density of X in a convolution model where Z=X+noise1 is observed
%
% 2/ the functions b (drift) and s^2 (volatility) in an "errors in variables"
% model where Z and Y are observed and assumed to follow:
% Z=X+noise1 and Y=b(X)+s(X)*noise2.
%
% 3/ the functions b (drift) and s^2 (volatility) in an stochastic
% volatility model where Z is observed and follows:
% Z=X+noise1 and X_{i+1} = b(X_i) + s(X_i)*noise2
%
% in any cases the density of noise1 is known. We consider three cases for
% this density : Gaussian ('normal'), Laplace ('symexp') and log(Chi2)
% ('logchi2)
