We develop a procedure for monitoring changes in the error distribution of autoregressive time series while controlling the overall size of the sequential test. The proposed procedure, unlike standard procedures which are also referred to, utilizes the empirical characteristic function of...

For a spatiotemporal process {Xj(s,t)∣s∈S,t∈T}j=1,…,n, where S denotes the set of spatial locations and T the time domain, we consider the problem of testing for a change in the sequence of mean functions {μj(s,t)∣s∈S,t∈T}j=1,…,n. In contrast to most of the literature, we are...

We propose a new sequential monitoring scheme for changes in the parameters of a multivariate time series. In contrast to procedures proposed in the literature which compare an estimator from the training sample with an estimator calculated from the remaining data, we suggest to divide the...

A common goal in modeling and data mining is to determine, based on sample data, whether or not a change of some sort has occurred in a quantity of interest. The study of statistical problems of this nature is typically referred to as change point analysis. Though change point analysis...

This paper investigates the impact of the 2008–2009 global financial crisis on the co-movement of 16 currencies in the sample. It employs a two-step atheoretic empirical methodology; it i) applies change point estimation based on geometric Brownian motion to detect change points in...
