In this paper, we calibrate the time-dependent volatility function for European options under the fractional Vasicek interest rate model. A fully implicit finite difference method is applied to solve the partial differential equation of option pricing numerically. To find the volatility function, we minimize a cost function that is the sum of the squared errors between the theoretical prices and market prices with Tikhonov L 2 regularization and L 1 / 2 regularization respectively. Finally numerical experiments with simulated and real market data verify the efficiency of the proposed methods.
