Many hydroclimatic time series are marked by interannual and longer quasi-period features that are associated with narrow band oscillatory climate modes. A time series modeling approach that directly considers such structures is developed and presented. The essence of the approach is to first develop a wavelet decomposition of the time series that retains only the statistically significant wavelet components, and to then model each such component and the residual time series as univariate autoregressive processes. The efficacy of this approach is demonstrated through the simulation of observed and paleo reconstructions of climate indices related to ENSO and AMO, tree ring and rainfall time series. Long ensemble simulations that preserve the spectral attributes of the time series in each ensemble member can be generated. The usual low order statistics are preserved by the proposed model, and its long memory performance is superior to the direction application of an autoregressive model.

High dimensional time series is gaining considerable attention in recent years. The sparse vector heterogeneous autoregressive (VHAR) model proposed by Baek and Park (2020) uses adaptive lasso and debiasing procedure in estimation, and showed superb forecasting performance in realized volatilities. This paper extends the sparse VHAR model by considering non-convex penalties such as SCAD and MCP for possible bias reduction from their penalty design. Finite sample performances of three estimation methods are compared through Monte Carlo simulation. Our study shows first that taking into cross-sectional correlations reduces bias. Second, nonconvex penalties performs better when the sample size is small. On the other hand, the adaptive lasso with debiasing performs well as sample size increases. Also, empirical analysis based on 20 multinational realized volatilities is provided.

The study aimed to investigate the impact of sectoral bank credit facilities provided by commercial banks on the non-oil economic growth in Saudi Arabia. Bank credit facilities are given for nine economic sectors: agriculture, manufacturing, mining, electricity and water, health services, construction, wholesale and retail trade, transportation and communications, services, and finance sector. The study employs annual data from 1970 to 2019. The study employs the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) approach to identify the long-run and short-run dynamics relationships among the variables. The main results reveal that the overall impact of total bank credit has a significant and positive effect on non-oil economic growth in KSA. The results revealed that the effect of bank credit on the non-oil GDP growth in the short and long run was uneven. The study finds that all sectors have a positive and significant impact in the long run, except for the agricultural and mining sectors. Likewise, all sectors have a positive and significant impact in the short run, except for construction, finance, services, and transportation & communications. As a result, bank credit facilities in different sectors have played an important role in enhancing the non-oil economic growth in the KSA.

한국어 형태소 분석은 자연어 처리의 기초가 되는 태스크이므로 빠르게 결과를 출력해야 한다. 기존연구는 자동회귀 모델을 한국어 형태소 분석에 적용하여 좋은 성능을 기록하였다. 하지만 자동회귀 모델은 느리다는 단점이 있고, 이 문제를 극복하기 위해 비자동회귀 모델을 사용할 수 있다. 비자동회귀 모델을 한국어 형태소 분석에 적용하면 조화롭지 않은 시퀀스 문제와 토큰 반복 문제가 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 두 문제를 해결하기 위하여 다중 디코더 기반의 한국어 형태소 분석을 제안한다. 조화롭지 않은 시퀀스는 다중 디코더를 적용함으로써, 토큰 반복 문제는 두 개의 디코더에 서로 어텐션을 적용하여 문제를 완화할 수 있다. 본 논문에서 제안한 모델은 세종 형태소 분석 말뭉치를 대상으로 좋은 성능을 확보하면서 빠르게 결과를 생성할 수 있음을 실험적으로 보였다.

An improved method on texture coding, which is a part of the region growing based image coding, is presented in this paper. An image is segmented into stochastic regions which can be described as a stochastic random field, and non-stochastic ones in order to efficiently represent texture. In the texture coding and reconstruction, an autoregressive model is used for the stochastic regions, while a two-dimensional polynomial approximation is used for the non-stochastic ones. This proposed method leads to a better subjective quality, relatively higher compression ratio and shorter processing time for coding and reconstructing than the conventional method which uses only two-dimensional polynomial approximation.

This study examined the longitudinal relationship between academic achievement and school satisfaction using a data of the Seoul Panel Study of Children(SPSC). Fully autoregressive cross-lagged analysis and multi-group comparison were performed to measure the longitudinal relationship between two constructs as well as differences between poverty and non-poverty groups. The results showed that both academic achievement and school satisfaction were stable over time in non-poverty group. Academic achievement at the 4th grade significantly affected the school satisfaction at the 6th grade and it subsequently affected on the academic achievement at the 8th grade in non-poverty group. In contrast, academic achievement was not consistent over time in poverty group. Only the school satisfaction at the 6th grade affected the academic achievement at the 8th grade. The findings of this study have various practical implication for school interventions. It is more important to keep supporting the children to maintain the level of academic achievement in non-poverty group. While, in poverty group, it is essential to make school satisfaction and academic motivation increase with school attachment programs.

Random Coefficient Autoregressive models (RCA) have attracted increased interest due to the wide range of applications in biology, economics, meteorology and finance. We consider an RCA as an appropriate model for non-linear properties and better than an AR model for linear properties. We study the methods of RCA parameter estimation. Especially we proposed the special case that an random coefficient ${\phi}(t)$ has the initial value ${\phi}(0)$ in the RCA model. In practical study, we estimated the parameters and compared Prediction Error Sum of Squares (PRESS) criterion between AR and RCA using Korean Mumps data.

This paper considers variable selection in the sparse vector autoregressive (sVAR) model where sparsity comes from setting small coefficients to exact zeros. In the estimation perspective, Davis et al. (2015) showed that the lasso type of regularization method is successful because it provides a simultaneous variable selection and parameter estimation even for time series data. However, their simulations study reports that the regular lasso overestimates the number of non-zero coefficients, hence its finite sample performance needs improvements. In this article, we show that the adaptive lasso significantly improves the performance where the adaptive lasso finds the sparsity patterns superior to the regular lasso. Some tuning parameter selections in the adaptive lasso are also discussed from the simulations study.

In this article, several types of hybrid forecasting models are suggested. In particular, hybrid models using the generalized additive model (GAM) are newly suggested as an alternative to those using neural networks (NN). The prediction performances of various hybrid and non-hybrid models are evaluated using simulated time series data. Five different types of seasonal time series data related to an additive or multiplicative trend are generated over different levels of noise, and applied to the forecasting evaluation. For the simulated data with only seasonality, the autoregressive (AR) model and the hybrid AR-AR model performed equivalently very well. On the other hand, if the time series data employed a trend, the SARIMA model and some hybrid SARIMA models equivalently outperformed the others. In the comparison of GAMs and NNs, regarding the seasonal additive trend data, the SARIMA-GAM evenly performed well across the full range of noise variation, whereas the SARIMA-NN showed good performance only when the noise level was trivial.

An autoregressive model with normal errors is a natural model that attempts to fit time series data. More flexible models that include normal distribution as a special case are necessary because they can cover normality to non-normality models. The skewed exponential power distribution is a possible candidate for autoregressive models errors that may have tails lighter(platykurtic) or heavier(leptokurtic) than normal and skewness; in addition, the use of skewed exponential power distribution can reduce the influence of outliers and consequently increases the robustness of the analysis. We use SIR algorithm and grid method for an efficient Bayesian estimation.
