This paper considers a partially linear model of the form y = x beta + g(t) + e, where beta is an unknown parameter vector, g(.) is an unknown function, and e is an error term. Based on a nonparametric estimate of g(.), the parameter beta is estimated by a semiparametric weighted least squares...

We analyze the applicability of standard normal asymptotic theory for linear process models near the boundary of stationarity. The concept of stationarity is refined, allowing for sample size dependence in the array and paying special attention to the rate at which the boundary unit root case is...

We analyze the applicability of standard normal asymptotic theory for linear process models near the boundary of stationarity. Limit results are given for estimation of the mean, autocovariance and autocorrelation functions within the broad region of stationarity that includes near boundary...

The paper considers the block sampling method for long-range dependent processes. Our theory generalizes earlier ones by Hall et al. (1998) [11] on functionals of Gaussian processes and Nordman and Lahiri (2005) [16] on linear processes. In particular, we allow nonlinear transforms of linear...

Motivated by the problem of setting prediction intervals in time seriesanalysis, this investigation is concerned with recovering a regression functionm(X_t) on the basis of noisy observations taking at random design pointsX_t.It is presumed that the corresponding observations are corrupted by...
