In this paper we obtain bounds under weaker nonparametric assumptions and explore how the bounds with assumptions imposed.

In this paper we analyse the problem of the modelling of individual transitions in presence of an incomplete sampling scheme.

The paper deals with estimation of missing observations in possibly nonstationary ARIMA models. First, the model is assumed known, and the structure of the interpolation filter is analysed. Using the inverse or dual autocorrelation function it is seen how estimation of a missing observation is...
