Estimation procedures for Structural Time Series Models

Andrew Harvey, Simon Peters

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

A univariate structural time series model based on the traditional
decomposition into trend, seasonal and irregular components is defined. A
number of methods of computing maximum likelihood estimators are then
considered. These include direct maximization of various time domain
likelihood function. The asymptotic properties of the estimators are given
and a comparison between the various methods in terms of computational
efficiency and accuracy is made. The methods are then extended to models
with explanatory variables.
