As noted by Iwueze and Nwogu (2014), there exists a research gap for the choice of appropriate model for decomposition and detection of presence of seasonal effect in a series model. Estimates of trend parameters and seasonal indices are all that are needed to fill the research gap. However, these estimates are obtainable through the Least Squares Estimation (LSE) and Buys-Ballot Estimation (BBE) methods. Hence, there is need to compare estimates of the two methods and recommend. The comparison of the two methods is done using the Accuracy Measures (Mean Error (ME)), Mean Square Error (MSE), the Mean Absolute Error (MAE), and the Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE). The results from simulated series show that for the additive model;the summary statistics (ME, MSE and MAE) for the two estimation methods and for all the selected trending curves are equal in all the simulations both in magnitude and direction. For the multiplicative model, results show that when a series is dominated by trend, the estimates of the parameters by both methods become less precise and differ more widely from each other. However, if conditions for successful transformation (using the logarithmic transform in linearizing the multiplicative model to additive model) are met, both of them give similar results.展开更多

However, the model parameters of both the fault content rate function and fault detection rate function of the SRGMs are often considered to be independent from each other. In practice, this assumption may not be the case and it is worth to investigate what if it is not. In this paper, we aim for such study and propose a software reliability model connecting the imperfect debugging and learning phenomenon by a common parameter among the two functions, called the imperfect-debugging fault-detection dependent-parameter model. Software testing data collected from real applications are utilized to illustrate the proposed model for both the descriptive and predictive power by determining the non-zero initial debugging process.展开更多

However,in parametric inference,it is more realistic and interesting to consider asymptotic estimation for diffusion processes based on discrete observations. The least squares method is used to obtain the estimator of the drift parameter for stochastic differential equations( SDEs) driven by general Lévy noises when the process is observed discretely. Its strong consistency and the rate of convergence of the squares estimator are studied under some regularity conditions.展开更多

The theory covers the cases of stationary process, local to unity process, unit root process, mildly integrated, mildly explosive and explosive processes. It is assumed that the cross-sectional dimension and time-series dimension are respectively N and T. The results in this paper illustrate that whichever the process is, with an appropriate regularization, the least squares estimator of the autoregressive coefficient converges in distribution to a normal distribution with rate at least O(N-1/3). Since the variance is the key to characterize the normal distribution, it is important to discuss the variance of the least squares estimator. We will show that when the autoregressive coefficient ρ satisfies |ρ| < 1, the variance declines at the rate O((NT)-1), while the rate changes to O(N^(-1) T^(-2)) when ρ = 1 and O(N^(-1)ρ^(-2 T+4)) when |ρ| > 1. ρ = 1 is the critical point where the convergence rate changes radically. The transition process is studied by assuming ρ depending on T and going to 1. An interesting phenomenon discovered in this paper is that, in the explosive case, the least squares estimator of the autoregressive coefficient has a standard normal limiting distribution in the panel data case while it may not has a limiting distribution in the univariate time series case.展开更多

Chen, You<SUP>[23]</SUP> proposed a semiparametric generalized least squares estimator (SGLSE) for , which takes the heteroscedasticity into account to increase efficiency. For inference based on this SGLSE, it is necessary to construct a consistent estimator for its asymptotic covariance matrix. However, when there exists within-group correlation, the traditional delta method and the delete-1 jackknife estimation fail to offer such a consistent estimator. In this paper, by deleting grouped partial residuals a delete-group jackknife method is examined. It is shown that the delete-group jackknife method indeed can provide a consistent estimator for the asymptotic covariance matrix in the presence of within-group correlations. This result is an extension of that in [21].展开更多

文摘With the increasing application of UAVs,UAV positioning technology for indoor complex environment has become a hot research issue in the industry.The traditional UWB positioning technology is affected by problems such as multipath effect and non-line-of-sight propagation,and its application in complex indoor environments has problemssuch as poor positioning accuracy and strong noise interference.We propose an improved LSE-EKF optimisation algorithm for UWB positioning in indoor complex environments,which optimises the initial measurement data through a BP neural network correction model,then optimises the coordinate error using least squares estimation to find the best pre-located coordinates,finally eliminates the interference noise in the pre-located coordinate signal through an EKF algorithm.It has been verified by experiments that the evaluation index can be improved by more than 9%compared with EKF algorithm data,especially under non-line-of-sight(NLOS)conditions,which enhances the possibility of industrial application of indoor UAV.
