Book Hidden Markov and Other Models for Discrete  valued Time Series

Download or read book Hidden Markov and Other Models for Discrete valued Time Series written by Iain L. MacDonald and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1997-01-01 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discrete-valued time series are common in practice, but methods for their analysis are not well-known. In recent years, methods have been developed which are specifically designed for the analysis of discrete-valued time series. Hidden Markov and Other Models for Discrete-Valued Time Series introduces a new, versatile, and computationally tractable class of models, the "hidden Markov" models. It presents a detailed account of these models, then applies them to data from a wide range of diverse subject areas, including medicine, climatology, and geophysics. This book will be invaluable to researchers and postgraduate and senior undergraduate students in statistics. Researchers and applied statisticians who analyze time series data in medicine, animal behavior, hydrology, and sociology will also find this information useful.

Book Analysis of Discrete valued Time Series

Download or read book Analysis of Discrete valued Time Series written by Isabel Silva and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2012 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discrete-valued time series are common in practice, yet methods for their analysis have been developed only recently. The fact that the variables take values on a finite or countably infinite set renders the traditional representations of dependence either impossible or impractical. Several models for stationary processes with discrete marginal distributions have been proposed. The first part of this book is concerned with the statistical inference (parameter estimation and order selection) of the INteger-valued AutoRegressive, INAR(p), process, both in the context of a single and of replicated time series. The second part of the book is focused on Walsh-Fourier spectral analysis (WFA), which is a procedure used to analyze time series when sharp discontinuities and changes of level occur in data. Considering that during the surgical intervention a patient attains different levels of neuromuscular blockade, the contribution of WFA to the design of an on-line adaptive control system for neuromuscular blockade is investigated. Thus, the book should be useful either to researchers or to users interested in count time series or spectral analysis using square waveforms.

Book An Introduction to Discrete Valued Time Series

Download or read book An Introduction to Discrete Valued Time Series written by Christian H. Weiss and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2018-02-05 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A much-needed introduction to the field of discrete-valued time series, with a focus on count-data time series Time series analysis is an essential tool in a wide array of fields, including business, economics, computer science, epidemiology, finance, manufacturing and meteorology, to name just a few. Despite growing interest in discrete-valued time series—especially those arising from counting specific objects or events at specified times—most books on time series give short shrift to that increasingly important subject area. This book seeks to rectify that state of affairs by providing a much needed introduction to discrete-valued time series, with particular focus on count-data time series. The main focus of this book is on modeling. Throughout numerous examples are provided illustrating models currently used in discrete-valued time series applications. Statistical process control, including various control charts (such as cumulative sum control charts), and performance evaluation are treated at length. Classic approaches like ARMA models and the Box-Jenkins program are also featured with the basics of these approaches summarized in an Appendix. In addition, data examples, with all relevant R code, are available on a companion website. Provides a balanced presentation of theory and practice, exploring both categorical and integer-valued series Covers common models for time series of counts as well as for categorical time series, and works out their most important stochastic properties Addresses statistical approaches for analyzing discrete-valued time series and illustrates their implementation with numerous data examples Covers classical approaches such as ARMA models, Box-Jenkins program and how to generate functions Includes dataset examples with all necessary R code provided on a companion website An Introduction to Discrete-Valued Time Series is a valuable working resource for researchers and practitioners in a broad range of fields, including statistics, data science, machine learning, and engineering. It will also be of interest to postgraduate students in statistics, mathematics and economics.

Book Statistical Inference for Discrete Time Stochastic Processes

Download or read book Statistical Inference for Discrete Time Stochastic Processes written by M. B. Rajarshi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2014-07-08 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work is an overview of statistical inference in stationary, discrete time stochastic processes. Results in the last fifteen years, particularly on non-Gaussian sequences and semi-parametric and non-parametric analysis have been reviewed. The first chapter gives a background of results on martingales and strong mixing sequences, which enable us to generate various classes of CAN estimators in the case of dependent observations. Topics discussed include inference in Markov chains and extension of Markov chains such as Raftery's Mixture Transition Density model and Hidden Markov chains and extensions of ARMA models with a Binomial, Poisson, Geometric, Exponential, Gamma, Weibull, Lognormal, Inverse Gaussian and Cauchy as stationary distributions. It further discusses applications of semi-parametric methods of estimation such as conditional least squares and estimating functions in stochastic models. Construction of confidence intervals based on estimating functions is discussed in some detail. Kernel based estimation of joint density and conditional expectation are also discussed. Bootstrap and other resampling procedures for dependent sequences such as Markov chains, Markov sequences, linear auto-regressive moving average sequences, block based bootstrap for stationary sequences and other block based procedures are also discussed in some detail. This work can be useful for researchers interested in knowing developments in inference in discrete time stochastic processes. It can be used as a material for advanced level research students.

Book Discrete Valued Time Series

Download or read book Discrete Valued Time Series written by Christian H Weiss and published by . This book was released on 2024-03-12 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The analysis and modeling of time series has been an active research area for more than 100 years, with the main focus on time series having a continuous range consisting of real numbers or real vectors. It took until the 1980s for the first papers on discrete-valued time series to appear. In the 2000s, a rapid increase in research activity was noted, but only in the last few years was a certain maturity and consolidation of the area of discrete-valued time series observed. This reprint is a collection of articles on a wide range of topics on discrete-valued time series (especially count time series), covering stochastic models and methods for their analysis, univariate and multivariate time series, applications of time series methods to risk analysis, statistical process control, and many more. The proposed approaches and concepts are thoroughly discussed and illustrated with several real-world data examples.

Book Statistical Inference as Severe Testing

Download or read book Statistical Inference as Severe Testing written by Deborah G. Mayo and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-09-20 with total page 503 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mounting failures of replication in social and biological sciences give a new urgency to critically appraising proposed reforms. This book pulls back the cover on disagreements between experts charged with restoring integrity to science. It denies two pervasive views of the role of probability in inference: to assign degrees of belief, and to control error rates in a long run. If statistical consumers are unaware of assumptions behind rival evidence reforms, they can't scrutinize the consequences that affect them (in personalized medicine, psychology, etc.). The book sets sail with a simple tool: if little has been done to rule out flaws in inferring a claim, then it has not passed a severe test. Many methods advocated by data experts do not stand up to severe scrutiny and are in tension with successful strategies for blocking or accounting for cherry picking and selective reporting. Through a series of excursions and exhibits, the philosophy and history of inductive inference come alive. Philosophical tools are put to work to solve problems about science and pseudoscience, induction and falsification.

There are two mainstream econometric models which are very popular in recent decades. One is quantile autoregressive (QAR) model which allows varying-coefficients in linear time series and greatly promotes the ranges of regression research. The first topic of this thesis is to focus on the modeling of QAR model. We propose two important measures, quantile correlation (QCOR) and quantile partial correlation (QPCOR). We then apply them to QAR models, and introduce two valuable quantities, the quantile autocorrelation function (QACF) and the quantile partial autocorrelation function (QPACF). This allows us to extend the Box-Jenkins three-stage procedure (model identification, model parameter estimation, and model diagnostic checking) from classical autoregressive models to quantile autoregressive models. Specifically, the QPACF of an observed time series can be employed to identify the autoregressive order, while the QACF of residuals obtained from the model can be used to assess the model adequacy. We not only demonstrate the asymptotic properties of QCOR, QPCOR, QACF and PQACF, but also show the large sample results of the QAR estimates and the quantile version of the Ljung- Box test. Moreover, we obtain the bootstrap approximations to the distributions of parameter estimators and proposed measures. Simulation studies indicate that the proposed methods perform well in finite samples, and an empirical example is presented to illustrate the usefulness of QAR model. The other important econometric model is autoregressive conditional duration (ACD) model which is developed with the purpose of depicting ultra high frequency (UHF) financial time series data. The second topic of this thesis is designed to incorporate ACD model with one of the extreme value distributions, i.e. Frechet distribution. We apply the maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) to Frechet ACD models and derive its generalized residuals for model adequacy checking. It is noteworthy that simulations show a relative greater sensitiveness in the linear parameters to sampling errors. This phenomenon successfully reflects the skewness of the Frechet distribution and suggests a method to practitioners in proceeding model accuracy. Furthermore, we present the empirical sizes and powers for Box-Pierce, Ljung-Box and modified Box-Pierce statistics as comparisons of the proposed portmanteau statistic. In addition to the Frechet ACD, we also systematically analyze theWeibull ACD, where the Weibull distribution is the other nonnegative extreme value distribution. The last topic of the thesis explains the estimation and diagnostic checking the Weibull ACD model. By investigating the MLE in this model, there exhibits a slight sensitiveness in linear parameters. However, there is an obvious phenomenon on the trade-off between the skewness of Weibull distribution and the sampling error when the simulations are conducted. Moreover, the asymptotic properties are also studied for the generalized residuals and a goodness-of-fit test is employed to obtain a portmanteau statistic. Through the simulation results in size and power, it shows that Weibull ACD is superior to Frechet ACD in specifying the wrong model. This is meaningful in practice.

Book The Spectral Analysis of Time Series

Download or read book The Spectral Analysis of Time Series written by L. H. Koopmans and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2014-05-12 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Spectral Analysis of Time Series describes the techniques and theory of the frequency domain analysis of time series. The book discusses the physical processes and the basic features of models of time series. The central feature of all models is the existence of a spectrum by which the time series is decomposed into a linear combination of sines and cosines. The investigator can used Fourier decompositions or other kinds of spectrals in time series analysis. The text explains the Wiener theory of spectral analysis, the spectral representation for weakly stationary stochastic processes, and the real spectral representation. The book also discusses sampling, aliasing, discrete-time models, linear filters that have general properties with applications to continuous-time processes, and the applications of multivariate spectral models. The text describes finite parameter models, the distribution theory of spectral estimates with applications to statistical inference, as well as sampling properties of spectral estimates, experimental design, and spectral computations. The book is intended either as a textbook or for individual reading for one-semester or two-quarter course for students of time series analysis users. It is also suitable for mathematicians or professors of calculus, statistics, and advanced mathematics.
