Varying-coefficient linear models arise from multivariate nonparametric regression, nonlinear time series modelling and forecasting, functional data analysis, longitudinal data analysis, and others. It has been a common practice to assume that the vary-coefficients are functions of a given...

We provide a direct proof for consistency and asymptotic normality of Gaussian maximum likelihood estimators for causal and invertible autoregressive moving-average (ARMA) time series models, which were initially established by Hannan [Journal of Applied Probability (1973) vol. 10, pp. 130-145]...

We develop a general methodology for tilting time series data. Attention is focused on a large class of regression problems, where errors are expressed through autoregressive processes. The class has a range of important applications and in the context of our work may be used to illustrate the...

We propose to model multivariate volatility processes on the basis of the newly defined conditionally uncorrelated components (CUCs). This model represents a parsimonious representation for matrix-valued processes. It is flexible in the sense that each CUC may be fitted separately with any...

For spatio-temporal regression models with observations taken regularly in time but irregularly over space, we investigate the effect of spatial smoothing on the reduction of variance in estimating both parametric and nonparametric regression functions. The processes concerned are stationary in...

Motivated by the problem of setting prediction intervals in time series analysis, we suggest two new methods for conditional distribution estimation. The first method is based on locally fitting a logistic model and is in the spirit of recent work on locally parametric techniques in density...
