This paper deals with the dimension reduction of high-dimensional time series based on a lower-dimensional factor process. In particular, we allow the dimension of time series N to be as large as, or even larger than, the length of observed time series T. The estimation of the factor loading...

We propose a new method for estimating common factors of multiple time series. One distinctive feature of the new approach is that it is applicable to some nonstationary time series. The unobservable, nonstationary factors are identified by expanding the white noise space step by step, thereby...

We extend the idea of crossvalidation to choose the smoothing parameters of the 'double-kernel' local linear regression for estimating a conditional density. Our selection rule optimises the estimated conditional density function by minimising the integrated squared error. We also discuss three...

In this paper, we propose a penalised pseudo-partial likelihood method for variable selection with multivariate failure time data with a growing number of regression coefficients. Under certain regularity conditions, we show the consistency and asymptotic normality of the penalised likelihood...

There are few techniques available for testing whether or not a family of parametric times series models fits a set of data reasonably well without serious restrictions on the forms of alternative models. In this paper, we consider generalised likelihood ratio tests of whether or not the...
