An Investigation of the Cycle Extraction Properties of Several Bandpass Filters Used to Identify Business Cycles
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the ability of bandpass filters commonly used in economics to extract a known periodicity and find that the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) filter has the best extraction properties.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Omnibus Test for Time Series Model I(d)
TL;DR: A Cramér–von Mises type frequency-domain test for fractional integration is developed that is shown to have high power against a wide variety of alternatives and to be in line with Hinich and Chong (2007).
Journal ArticleDOI
A statistical uncertainty principle for estimating the time of a discrete shift in the mean of a continuous time random process
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a statistical uncertainty principle that can be used when localizing a single change in the mean of a band-limited stationary random process, which is a continuous time process that experiences a shift in its mean.
Book ChapterDOI
A Hilbert Transform Method for Estimating Distributed Lag Models With Randomly Missed or Distorted Observations
Melvin J. Hinich,Warren E. Weber +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider least squares estimation of the lag coefficients of a distributed lag model when the sample has missed or distorted observations, and propose a special computer program to compute these normal equations when observations are missed.

Topics in analytical political economy
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a collection of key papers on the topic of analytical political economy, focusing on the interaction between the highly interdependant yet very different fields of politics and economics.
