 Weighted realized variance

For observations of an Itô integral on a partition of an interval, the statistic ${\sum }_{i}g(t_{i-1})(X_{t_i}-X_{t_{i-1}}{)}^2$ estimates $\int g(t)\sigma (t{)}^{2}dt$. With a deterministic noise coefficient the squared increments are independent, and the fluctuation has variance $2{\sum }_{i}g(t_{i-1}{)}^2({\int }_{t_{i-1}}^{t_i}{\sigma }^2{)}^2$.
