The Analysis of Second-Order Stationary Processes: Time Series Analysis, Spectral Analysis, Harmonic Analysis, and Geostatistics

  • Chapter

Abstract

Time series analysis, spectral analysis, and geostatistics are all tools designed for analyzing second-order stationary stochastic processes. This paper compares these three approaches at a broadly theoretical level.
