Non-Gaussian autoregressive moving average processes.

Chapter 3: Autoregressive and moving average processes

2 Moving average models Definition. The moving average model of order q, or MA(q), is defined to be Xt = t + θ1 t−1 + θ2 t−2 + · · ·+ θq t−q, where t i.i.d. ∼ N(0, σ). Remarks: 1. Without loss of generality, we assume the mean of the process to be zero. 2. Here θ1, . . . , θq (θq 6= 0) are the parameters of the model. 3. Sometimes it suffices to assume that t ∼WN(0, σ). Here we assume normality...

Maximum Likelihood Identification of Gaussian Autoregressive Moving Average Models

Complete convergence of moving-average processes under negative dependence sub-Gaussian assumptions

The complete convergence is investigated for moving-average processes of doubly infinite sequence of negative dependence sub-gaussian random variables with zero means, finite variances and absolutely summable coefficients. As a corollary, the rate of complete convergence is obtained under some suitable conditions on the coefficients.

Dissertation Time - Frequency - Autoregressive - Moving - Average Modeling of Nonstationary Processes

This thesis introduces time-frequency-autoregressive-moving-average (TFARMA) models for underspread nonstationary stochastic processes (i.e., nonstationary processes with rapidly decaying TF correlations). TFARMAmodels are parsimonious as well as physically intuitive and meaningful because they are formulated in terms of time shifts (delays) and Doppler frequency shifts. They are a subclass of ...

Parameter estimation for non-Gaussian autoregressive processes

It is proposed to jointly estimate the parameters of nonGaussian autoregressive (AR) processes in a Bayesian context using the Gibbs sampler. Using the Markov chains produced by the sampler an approximation to the vector MAP estimator is implemented. The results reported here used AR(4) models driven by noise sequences where each sample is iid as a two component Gaussian sum mixture. The result...
