A Non-Gaussian Model for Time Series with Pulses
带脉冲时间序列的非高斯模型
A non-Gaussian autoregressive-like model is presented for time series that exhibit occasional large increases in value, termed pulses, and exponential decay between pulses. The model differs from a first-order autoregressive process in its incorporation of feedback between the distribution of the current innovation and the history of the process. Likelihood-based methods of inference for the model are developed, and an application to endocrinological data is given.
