A shrinkage estimator for spectral densities
谱密度的收缩估计量
We propose a shrinkage estimator for spectral densities based on a multilevel normal hierarchical model. The first level captures the sampling variability via a likelihood constructed using the asymptotic properties of the periodogram. At the second level, the spectral density is shrunk towards a parametric time series model. To avoid selecting a particular parametric model for the second level, a third level is added which induces an estimator that averages over a class of…
