Estimation of the Generalized Prediction Error Variance of a Multiple Time Series
多元时间序列广义预测误差方差的估计
For a multivariate stationary time series, we propose a nonparametric estimator for its generalized prediction error variance using a multivariate analog of the Szegö-Kolmogorov formula, replacing the integral by a sum and replacing the unknown spectral density matrix by a consistent estimator. Asymptotic normality of this estimator is established, and its small-sample behavior is assessed through simulation and application to two real data sets. These examples show that the…
