Prais–Winsten Estimation
In econometrics, Prais–Winsten estimation is a procedure meant to take care of the Autocorrelation, serial correlation of type Autoregressive model#Example: An AR.281.29 process, AR(1) in a linear model. Conceived by Sigbert Prais and Christopher Winsten in 1954, it is a modification of Cochrane–Orcutt estimation in the sense that it does not lose the first observation, which leads to more efficiency (statistics), efficiency as a result and makes it a special case of feasible generalized least squares. Theory Consider the model :y_t = \alpha + X_t \beta+\varepsilon_t,\, where y_ is the time series of interest at time ''t'', \beta is a Vector (geometry), vector of coefficients, X_ is a matrix of explanatory variables, and \varepsilon_t is the error term. The error term can be serial correlation, serially correlated over time: \varepsilon_t =\rho \varepsilon_+e_t,\ , \rho, <1 and is white noise. In addition to the Cochrane–Orcutt transformation, wh ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
