We investigate the behavior of nonparametric kernel M-estimators in the presence of long-memory errors. The optimal bandwidth and a central limit theorem are obtained. It turns out that in the Gaussian case all kernel M-estimators have the same limiting normal distribution. The motivation behind...

Prediction in time series models with a trend requires reliable estimation of the trend function at the right end of the observed series. Local polynomial smoothing is a suitable tool because boundary corrections are included implicitly. However, outliers may lead to unreliable estimates, if...

A workbench for knowledge acquisition and data analysis is presented and its use for the classification of business cycles is investigated. Inductive Logic Programming (ILP) allows to model relations between intervals, e.g. time or value intervals. Moreover, the user of the workbench is...
