Abstract. Conventional streamflow models operate under the assumption of constant variance or season-dependent variances (e.g. ARMA (AutoRegressive Moving Average) models for deseasonalized streamflow series and PARMA (Periodic AutoRegressive Moving Average) models for seasonal streamflow series). However, with McLeod-Li test and Engle’s Lagrange Multiplier test, clear evidences are found for t...

This article presents a hybrid method of structural modal parameter identification, based on improved empirical mode decomposition (EMD) and autoregressive moving average (ARMA). Special attention is given to some implementation issues, such as the mixing, false modes, judgment real intrinsic function (IMF) classical EMD, difficulty fixing order ARMA. To resolve existing defects an EMD (IEMD) t...

In this paper, we revisit the problem of demand propagation in a multi-stage supply chain in which the retailer observes ARMA demand. In contrast to previous work, we show how each player constructs the order based upon its best linear forecast of leadtime demand given its available information. In order to characterize how demand propagates through the supply chain we construct a new process w...

As the real estate market develops rapidly and is increasingly securitized, it has become an important investment asset in the portfolio design. Thus the measurement of its market risk exposure has attracted attentions from academics and industries due to its peculiar behavior and unique characteristics such as heteroscedasticity and multi scale heterogeneity in its risk and noise evolution etc...

In this paper a new least-squares (LS) approach is used to model the discrete-time fractional differintegrator. This approach is based on a mismatch error between the required response and the one obtained by the difference equation defining the auto-regressive, moving-average (ARMA) model. In minimizing the error power we obtain a set of suitable normal equations that allow us to obtain the AR...

In a recent publication Stadnitski (2012) presented an overview of methods to estimate fractal scaling in time series, outlined as an accessible tutorial1. The publication was set-up as a comparison between monofractal and ARFIMA methods, and promotes ARFIMA to distinguish between spurious and genuine 1/f noise, shedding light on “the problem that the log–log power spectrum of short-memory ARMA...

The classiication of High Range Resolution (HRR) radar signatures using multi-scale features is considered. We present a hierarchical autoregressive moving average (ARMA) model for modeling HRR radar signals at multiple scales, and use spectral features extracted from the model for classifying radar signatures. First, we show that the radar signal at a diierent scale follows an ARMA process if ...

In the recent years, the use of GARCH type (especially, ARMA-GARCH) models and computational-intelligence-based techniques—Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Relevance Vector Machine (RVM) have been successfully used for financial forecasting. This paper deals with the application of ARMA-GARCH, recurrent SVM (RSVM) and recurrent RVM (RRVM) in volatility forecasting. Based on RSVM and RRVM, two G...
