This note provides a proof of Granger's (1986) error correction model for fractionally cointegrated variables and points out a necessary assumption that has not been noted before. Moreover, a simpler, alternative error correction model is proposed which can be employed to estimate fractionally...

This paper investigates the use of Design of Experiments in observational studies in order to select informative observations and features for classification. D-optimal plans are searched for in existing data and based on these plans the variables most relevant for classification are determined....

In this paper we present how statistical experimental design, time series analysis and non-linear dynamic models have been applied to gain a deeper insight into BTA-deep-hole drilling process. BTA-deep-hole drilling process is used to produce long holes of a length to diameter ratio larger than...

In this article, the problem of constructing efficient discriminating designs in a Fourier regression model is considered. We propose designs which maximize the efficiency for the estimation of the coefficient corresponding to the highest frequency subject to the constraints that the...

The aim of this paper is to show that existing estimators for the error distribution in nonparametric regression models can be improved when additional information about the distribution is included by the empirical likelihood method. The weak convergence of the resulting new estimator to a...

We investigate optimal designs for discriminating between exponential regression models of different complexity, which are widely used in the biological sciences; see, e.g., Landaw (1995) or Gibaldi and Perrier (1982). We discuss different approaches for the construction of appropriate...
