We show that the new criterion can select the true mean model and a correct variance model with probability tending to 1 under mild conditions. Simulation studies and a real example are presented to evaluate the new criterion, and it turns out that the proposed approach performs well.展开更多

It is shown that the wavelet coefficients of the data have significantly large absolute values across fine scale levels near the jump points. Then a procedure is developed to estimate the jumps and jump heights. All estimators are proved to be consistent.展开更多

Our result shows that the tail of the stationary marginal distribution of an NARFCH series is heavily dependent on its conditional variance. When the innovations are heavy-tailed, the tail of the stationary marginal distribution of the series will become heavier or thinner than that of its innovations. We give some specific formulas to show how the increment or decrement of tail heaviness depends on the assumption on the conditional variance function. Some examples are given.展开更多
