Flexible Time Series Analysis

  • Chapter

Abstract

In this chapter we present nonparametric methods and available quantlets for nonlinear modelling of univariate time series. A general nonlinear time series model for an univariate stochastic process Y t T t=1 is given by the heteroskedastic nonlinear autoregressive (NAR) process

$${Y_t} = f\left( {{Y_{t - i1}},{Y_{t - i2}}, \ldots ,{Y_{t - im}}} \right) + \sigma \left( {{Y_{t - i1}},{Y_{t - i2}}, \ldots ,{Y_{t - im}}} \right){\xi _t},$$
(16.1)

where ξ t denotes an i.i.d. noise with zero mean and unit variance and ƒ(·) and σ(·) denote the conditional mean function and conditional standard deviation with lags i 1,... ,i m , respectively. In practice, the conditional functions ƒ(·) and σ(·) as well as the number of lags m and the lags itself i 1,... ,i m are unknown and have to be estimated.
