Estimation of Hidden Frequencies for 2d Stationary Processes

چکیده
We study a stationary random ®eld model that is composed of a signal of an unknown number of sine and cosine functions, and a coloured noise. This model has been used in image analysis and modelling spatial data, and is useful for signal extraction in the presence of coloured noise. The problem is to estimate the number of unknown frequencies and the unknown frequencies. The analogous time series model and related problems have been extensively studied. Our approach is based on some analytic properties of periodograms of stationary random ®elds that we establish in the paper. In particular, we show that the periodogram of a stationary random ®eld of a moving average has a uniform upper bound of O (ln(N)) where N 2 is the sample size, and that the periodogram of the observed process has a magnitude of the order N 2 uniformly in a neighbourhood of any hidden frequency, and much smaller outside.

Confidence Interval Estimation of the Mean of Stationary Stochastic Processes: a Comparison of Batch Means and Weighted Batch Means Approach (TECHNICAL NOTE)
Suppose that we have one run of n observations of a stochastic process by means of computer simulation and would like to construct a condifence interval for the steady-state mean of the process. Seeking for independent observations, so that the classical statistical methods could be applied, we can divide the n observations into k batches of length m (n= k.m) or alternatively, transform the cor...

Suppose a certain variable Xt is measured at discrete equally spaced time points t = 1, ... , T and we want to make assertions on the energy distribution of the frequencies in a harmonic analysis. This energy distribution may for example be used to code the data if Xt is a speech signal or to make a prediction if the Xt are economic data. Instead of using a deterministic approach applied scient...
متن کاملTREND-CYCLE ESTIMATION USING FUZZY TRANSFORM OF HIGHER DEGREE
In this paper, we provide theoretical justification for the application of higher degree fuzzy transform in time series analysis. Under the assumption that a time series can be additively decomposed into a trend-cycle, a seasonal component and a random noise, we demonstrate that the higher degree fuzzy transform technique can be used for the estimation of the trend-cycle, which is one of the ba...
متن کاملSome New Methods for Prediction of Time Series by Wavelets
Extended Abstract. Forecasting is one of the most important purposes of time series analysis. For many years, classical methods were used for this aim. But these methods do not give good performance results for real time series due to non-linearity and non-stationarity of these data sets. On one hand, most of real world time series data display a time-varying second order structure. On th...
متن کاملEstimation of Hidden Markov Models with Nonparametric Simulated Maximum Likelihood
We propose a nonparametric simulated maximum likelihood estimation (NPSMLE) with built-in nonlinear ltering. By recursively approximating the unknown conditional densities, our method enables a maximum likelihood estimation of general dynamic models with latent variables including time-inhomogeneous and non-stationary processes. We establish the asymptotic properties of the NPSMLEs for hidden...
