On the estimation of the autocorrelation function

Manuel Duarte Ortigueira (2010)

Discussiones Mathematicae Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

The autocorrelation function has a very important role in several application areas involving stochastic processes. In fact, it assumes the theoretical base for Spectral analysis, ARMA (and generalizations) modeling, detection, etc. However and as it is well known, the results obtained with the more current estimates of the autocorrelation function (biased or not) are frequently bad, even when we have access to a large number of points. On the other hand, in some applications, we need...

Statistical estimation of higher-order spectral densities by means of general tapering

M'hammed Baba Harra (1997)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

Given a realization on a finite interval of a continuous-time stationary process, we construct estimators for higher order spectral densities. Tapering and shift-in-time methods are used to build estimators which are asymptotically unbiased and consistent for all admissible values of the argument. Asymptotic results for the fourth-order densities are given. Detailed attention is paid to the nth order case.

Plug-in estimators for higher-order transition densities in autoregression

Anton Schick, Wolfgang Wefelmeyer (2009)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

In this paper we obtain root- consistency and functional central limit theorems in weighted -spaces for plug-in estimators of the two-step transition density in the classical stationary linear autoregressive model of order one, assuming essentially only that the innovation density has bounded variation. We also show that plugging in a properly weighted residual-based kernel estimator for the unknown innovation density improves on plugging in an unweighted residual-based...

Time series model identification by estimating information, memory and quantiles.

Emanuel Parzen (1983)

Qüestiió

Similarity:

This paper applies techniques of Quantile Data Analysis to non-parametrically analyze time series functions such as the sample spectral density, sample correlations and sample partial correlations. The aim is to identify the memory type of an observed time series, and thus to identify parametric time domain models that fit an observed time series. Time series models are usually tested for adequacy by testing if their residuals are white noise. It is proposed that an additional criterion...

On-line nonparametric estimation.

Rafail Khasminskii (2004)

SORT

Similarity:

A survey of some recent results on nonparametric on-line estimation is presented. The first result deals with an on-line estimation for a smooth signal S(t) in the classic 'signal plus Gaussian white noise' model. Then an analogous on-line estimator for the regression estimation problem with equidistant design is described and justified. Finally some preliminary results related to the on-line estimation for the diffusion observed process are described.

Estimation of summary characteristics from replicated spatial point processes

Zbyněk Pawlas (2011)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

Summary characteristics play an important role in the analysis of spatial point processes. We discuss various approaches to estimating summary characteristics from replicated observations of a stationary point process. The estimators are compared with respect to their integrated squared error. Simulations for three basic types of point processes help to indicate the best way of pooling the subwindow estimators. The most appropriate way depends on the particular summary characteristic,...
