چکیده
Limits to consistent on-line forecasting for ergodic time series. Abstract This study concerns problems of time-series forecasting under the weakest of assumptions. Related results are surveyed and are points of departure for the developments here, some of which are new and others are new derivations of previous findings. The contributions in this study are all negative, showing that various plausible prediction problems are unsolvable, or in other cases, are not solvable by predictors which are known to be consistent when mixing conditions hold.

Nonparametric inference for ergodic, stationary time series
Nonparametric inference for ergodic, stationary time series. Abstract The setting is a stationary, ergodic time series. The challenge is to construct a sequence of functions, each based on only finite segments of the past, which together provide a strongly consistent estimator for the conditional probability of the next observation, given the infinite past. Ornstein gave such a construction for...
متن کاملA new adaptive exponential smoothing method for non-stationary time series with level shifts
Simple exponential smoothing (SES) methods are the most commonly used methods in forecasting and time series analysis. However, they are generally insensitive to non-stationary structural events such as level shifts, ramp shifts, and spikes or impulses. Similar to that of outliers in stationary time series, these non-stationary events will lead to increased level of errors in the forecasting pr...
متن کاملStrongly consistent nonparametric forecasting and regression for stationary ergodic sequences
Let {(Xi, Yi)} be a stationary ergodic time series with (X, Y ) values in the product space R ⊗ R. This study offers what is believed to be the first strongly consistent (with respect to pointwise, least-squares, and uniform distance) algorithm for inferring m(x) = E[Y0|X0 = x] under the presumption that m(x) is uniformly Lipschitz continuous. Autoregression, or forecasting, is an important spe...
متن کاملA NEW APPROACH BASED ON OPTIMIZATION OF RATIO FOR SEASONAL FUZZY TIME SERIES
In recent years, many studies have been done on forecasting fuzzy time series. First-order fuzzy time series forecasting methods with first-order lagged variables and high-order fuzzy time series forecasting methods with consecutive lagged variables constitute the considerable part of these studies. However, these methods are not effective in forecasting fuzzy time series which contain seasonal...
متن کاملOverview and Comparison of Short-term Interval Models for Financial Time Series Forecasting
In recent years, various time series models have been proposed for financial markets forecasting. In each case, the accuracy of time series forecasting models are fundamental to make decision and hence the research for improving the effectiveness of forecasting models have been curried on. Many researchers have compared different time series models together in order to determine more efficien...
