In a recent paper Lee and Na (2001) introduced a test for a parametric form of the distribution of the innovations in autoregressive models, which is based on the integrated squared error of the nonparametric density estimate from the residuals and a smoothed version of the parametric fit of the...

In a recent paper Paparoditis (2000) proposed a new goodness-of-fit test for time series models based on spectral density estimation. The test statistic is based on the distance between a kernel estimator of the ratio of the true and the hypothesized spectral density and the expected value of...

We discuss optimal design problems for a popular method of series estimation in regression problems. Commonly used design criteria are based on the generalized variance of the estimates of the coefficients in a truncated series expansion and do not take possible bias into account. We present a...

We propose a new procedure for white noise testing of a functional time series. Our approach is based on an explicit representation of the 2‐distance between the spectral density operator and its best (2‐)approximation by a spectral density operator corresponding to a white noise process....
