The Averaged Periodogram Estimator for a Power Law in Coherency
نویسنده
چکیده
We prove the consistency of the averaged periodogram estimator (APE) in two new cases. First, we prove that the APE is consistent for negative memory parameters, after suitable tapering. Second, we prove that the APE is consistent for a power law in the cross-spectrum and therefore for a power law in the coherency, provided that sufficiently many frequencies are used in estimation. Simulation evidence suggests that the lower bound on the number of frequencies is a necessary condition for consistency. For a Taylor series approximation to the estimator of the power law in the cross-spectrum, we consider the rate of convergence, and obtain a central limit theorem under suitable regularity conditions.

Three Essays in Econometrics: Multivariate Long Memory Time Series and Applying Regression Trees to Longitudinal Data
The first two chapters of this dissertation discuss multivariate long memory models. First, we discuss two distinct parametric multivariate time-series models. We discuss the implications of the models and describe an extension to fractional cointegration. We describe algorithms for computing the covariances of each model, for computing the likelihood and for simulating from each model. These a...
متن کاملSpectrum-based estimators of the bivariate Hurst exponent.
We discuss two alternate spectrum-based estimators of the bivariate Hurst exponent in the power-law cross-correlations setting, the cross-periodogram and local X-Whittle estimators, as generalizations of their univariate counterparts. As the spectrum-based estimators are dependent on a part of the spectrum taken into consideration during estimation, a simulation study showing performance of the...
متن کاملThe spectra and periodograms of anti-correlated discrete fractional Gaussian noise.
Discrete fractional Gaussian noise (dFGN) has been proposed as a model for interpreting a wide variety of physiological data. The form of actual spectra of dFGN for frequencies near zero varies as f(1-2H), where 0 < H < 1 is the Hurst coefficient; however, this form for the spectra need not be a good approximation at other frequencies. When H approaches zero, dFGN spectra exhibit the 1 - 2H pow...
متن کاملCyclic Spectral Analysis from the Averaged Cyclic Periodogram
The theory of cyclostationarity has emerged as a new approach to characterizing a certain type of nonstationary signals. Many aspects of the spectral analysis of cyclostationary signals have been investigated but were essentially based on the use of the smoothed cyclic periodogram. This paper proposes a cyclic spectral estimator based on the averaged cyclic periodogram which benefits from bette...
متن کاملShrinkage estimation in the frequency domain of multivariate time series
Abstract. In this poster on analysis of high dimensional time series, we present a new non-parametric estimator of the spectral matrix with two appealing properties: compared to the traditional smoothed periodogram our shrinkage estimator has a smaller L2 risk and is numerically more stable due to a smaller condition number. We use the concept of ”Kolmogorov” asymptotics where simultaneously th...
