Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The earliest time series analysis can be traced back to ancient Egypt 7000 years ago. The ancient Egyptians recorded the rise and fall of the Nile from day to day to form a time series. Since the autoregressive model was proposed by British statistician G. U. Yule in the early part of the last century, time series analysis has become a popular research direction for its wide application in the fields of economy, finance, engineering, and many others.

The aim of this Special Issue is to bring together papers on the following topics:

  • Innovation in time series models (any type of time series models, such as covariate-driven time series models, measurement error models, etc.).
  • Research on inference problems of time series models (including but not limited to model selection, parameter estimation, testing problems, etc.).
  • The application of time series models and methods in prediction, change point detection and other practical problems.
  • This Special Issue also aims to include interdisciplinary research or excellent comprehensive review papers, preferably with time series models or methods as the core contribution. In particular, articles containing practical applications will be very welcome.

In addition, mathematical research that can be applied to solving statistical problems is welcome.

Non-negative integer-valued time series are usually encountered in practice, and a variety of integer-valued autoregressive processes based on various thinning operators are commonly used to model these count data with temporal dependence. In this paper, we consider a first-order integer-valued autoregressive process constructed by the negative binomial thinning operator with random coefficients, to address the problem of constant thinning parameters which might not always accurately represent real-world settings because of numerous external and internal causes. We estimate the model parameters of interest by the two-step conditional least squares method, obtain the asymptotic behaviors of the estimators, and furthermore devise a technique to test the constancy of the thinning parameters, which is essential for determining whether or not the proposed model should consider the parameters’ randomness. The effectiveness and dependability of the suggested approach are illustrated by a series of thorough simulation studies. Finally, two real-world data analysis examples reveal that the suggested approach is very useful and flexible for applications. Full article

The portmanteau test is an effective tool for testing the goodness of fit of models. Motivated by the fact that high-frequency data can improve the estimation accuracy of models, a modified portmanteau test using high-frequency data is proposed for ARCH-type models in this paper. Simulation results show that the empirical size and power of the modified test statistics of the model using high-frequency data are better than those of the daily model. Three stock indices (CSI 300, SSE 50, CSI 500) are taken as an example to illustrate the practical application of the test. Full article

This paper proposes a new time-varying integer-valued autoregressive (TV-INAR) model with a state vector following a logistic regression structure. Since the autoregressive coefficient in the model is time-dependent, the Kalman-smoothed method is applicable. Some statistical properties of the model are established. To estimate the parameters of the model, a two-step estimation method is proposed. In the first step, the Kalman-smoothed estimation method, which is suitable for handling time-dependent systems and nonstationary stochastic processes, is utilized to estimate the time-varying parameters. In the second step, conditional least squares is used to estimate the parameter in the error term. This proposed method allows estimating the parameters in the nonlinear model and deriving the analytical solutions. The performance of the estimation method is evaluated through simulation studies. The model is then validated using actual time series data. Full article
