The testing problem on the first-order autoregressive parameter in finite sample case is considered. The innovations are distributed according to the exponential distribution. The aim of this paper is to study how much the size of this test changes when, at some time k, an innovation outlier contaminant occurs. We show that the test is rather sensitive to these changes.
The one sided unit root test of a first-order autoregressive model in the presence of an additive outlier is considered. In this paper, we present a formula to compute the size and the power of the test when an AO (additive outlier) occurs at a time k. A small sample case is considered only.
Using the Bahadur representation of a sample quantile for m-dependent and strong mixing random variables, we establish the asymptotic distribution of the Hurwicz estimator for the coefficient of autoregression in a linear process with innovations belonging to the domain of attraction of an α-stable law (1 < α < 2). The present paper extends Hurwicz's result to the autoregressive model.

The first-order autoregressive model with uniform innovations is considered. In this paper, we propose a family of BAYES estimators based on a class of prior distributions. We obtain estimators of the parameter which perform better than the maximum likelihood estimator.
The first-order autoregressive model with uniform innovations is considered. The approximate bias of the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) of the parameter is obtained. Also, a formula for the approximate bias is given when a single outlier occurs at a specified time with a known amplitude. Simulation procedures confirm that our formulas are suitable. A small sample case is considered only.
The two sided unit root test of a first-order autoregressive model in the presence of an innovation outlier is considered. In this paper, we present three tests; two are usual and one is new. We give formulas computing the size and the power of the three tests when an innovation outlier (IO) occurs at a specified time, say k. Using a comparative study, we show that the new statistic performs better under contamination. A Small sample case is considered only.
