Time Series Analysis
by Wilfredo PalmaTime Series is the result of more than 20 years of teaching courses at both the upper-undergraduate and beginning-graduate levels. The main motivation is to provide a broad coverage of the most fundamental aspects of time series analysis and its applications at an introductory level. As a consequence, the text focuses only on the treatment of univariate time series, covering a number of well-known models such as ARMA and ARIMA. The text also provides an updated coverage of several useful and newly-developed techniques such as weak and strong dependence, Bayesian methods, non-Gaussian data, and local stationarity, missing values and outliers, threshold models, among others. The topics are systematically organized in a progressive manner so as to provide suitable continuity from beginning to end. Examples, exercise sets, and their corresponding solutions are plentiful. Theory is discussed when relevant. Every effort is made to make the book self-contained. A companion Web site is available for readers to access the R data sets used within the text.

Time Series Econometrics: Learning Through Replication (Springer Texts in Business and Economics)
by John D. LevendisRevised and updated for the second edition, this textbook allows students to work through classic texts in economics and finance, using the original data and replicating their results. In this book, the author rejects the theorem-proof approach as much as possible, and emphasizes the practical application of econometrics. They show with examples how to calculate and interpret the numerical results.This book begins with students estimating simple univariate models, in a step by step fashion, using the popular Stata software system. Students then test for stationarity, while replicating the actual results from hugely influential papers such as those by Granger & Newbold, and Nelson & Plosser. Readers will learn about structural breaks by replicating papers by Perron, and Zivot & Andrews. They then turn to models of conditional volatility, replicating papers by Bollerslev. Students estimate multi-equation models such as vector autoregressions and vector error-correction mechanisms, replicating the results in influential papers by Sims and Granger. Finally, students estimate static and dynamic panel data models, replicating papers by Thompson, and Arellano & Bond.The book contains many worked-out examples, and many data-driven exercises. While intended primarily for graduate students and advanced undergraduates, practitioners will also find the book useful.“How to best start learning time series econometrics? Learning by doing. This is the ethos of this book. What makes this book useful is that it provides numerous worked out examples along with basic concepts. It is a fresh, no-nonsense, practical approach that students will love when they start learning time series econometrics. I recommend this book strongly as a study guide for students who look for hands-on learning experience."--Professor Sokbae "Simon" Lee, Columbia University, Co-Editor of Econometric Theory and Associate Editor of Econometrics Journal.

Time Series Modeling for Analysis and Control
by Genshiro Kitagawa Kohei Ohtsu Hui PengThis book presents multivariate time series methods for the analysis and optimal control of feedback systems. Although ships' autopilot systems are considered through the entire book, the methods set forth in this book can be applied to many other complicated, large, or noisy feedback control systems for which it is difficult to derive a model of the entire system based on theory in that subject area. The basic models used in this method are the multivariate autoregressive model with exogenous variables (ARX) model and the radial bases function net-type coefficients ARX model. The noise contribution analysis can then be performed through the estimated autoregressive (AR) model and various types of autopilot systems can be designed through the state-space representation of the models. The marine autopilot systems addressed in this book include optimal controllers for course-keeping motion, rolling reduction controllers with rudder motion, engine governor controllers, noise adaptive autopilots, route-tracking controllers by direct steering, and the reference course-setting approach. The methods presented here are exemplified with real data analysis and experiments on real ships. This book is highly recommended to readers who are interested in designing optimal or adaptive controllers not only of ships but also of any other complicated systems under noisy disturbance conditions.
