Abstract

A unified approach for the tentative specification of the order of mixed stationary and nonstationary ARMA models is proposed. For the ARMA models, an iterative regression procedure is given to produce consistent estimates of the autoregressive parameters. An extended sample autocorrelation function based on these consistent estimates is then defined and used for order determination. One of the advantages of this new approach is that it eliminates the need to determine, usually rather arbitrarily, the order of differencing to produce stationarity in modeling time series. Comparisons with other existing identification methods are discussed, and several samples are given.
