Abstract

In this project we study problems of inference and forecasting in autoregressive models with periodic correlation from a Bayesian perspective. Normality and unimodality assumptions are rarely verified in practice and the usual approach is to try Box-Cox transformations to obtain approximate normality and stabilize the periodic variance. More recently, mixture models were developed to take into account asymmetry and multimodality.
