Sequential estimation for the autocorrelations of linear processes
线性过程自相关的序贯估计
This paper considers sequential point estimation of the autocorrelations of stationary linear processes within the framework of the sequential procedure initiated by Robbins. The sequential estimator proposed here is based on the usual sample autocorrelations and is shown to be risk efficient in the sense of Starr as the cost per observation approaches zero. To achieve the asymptotic risk efficiency, we are led to study the uniform integrability and random central limit…
