The backshift operator in time series analysis

Pages 235-241 | Received 26 Nov 1975, Published online: 09 Jul 2006
 

Abstract

A time series is a set of data which develops through time in some structured manner, whose precise form is, in part, obscured by a random component. The usefulness of the backshift operator comes from the insights it gives the analyst as to the possible interpretation of a fitted model, or even in suggesting some preferable model.
