There are few techniques available for testing whether or not a family of parametric times series models fits a set of data reasonably well without serious restrictions on the forms of alternative models. In this paper, we consider generalised likelihood ratio tests of whether or not the...

We extend the idea of crossvalidation to choose the smoothing parameters of the 'double-kernel' local linear regression for estimating a conditional density. Our selection rule optimises the estimated conditional density function by minimising the integrated squared error. We also discuss three...

In this paper, we propose a penalised pseudo-partial likelihood method for variable selection with multivariate failure time data with a growing number of regression coefficients. Under certain regularity conditions, we show the consistency and asymptotic normality of the penalised likelihood...

We propose a simple forward adaptive banding method for estimating large covariance matrices using the modified Cholesky decomposition. This approach requires the fitting of a prespecified set of models due to the adaptive banding structure and can be efficiently implemented. Aside from its...

There is an increasing wealth of multivariate spatial and multivariate spatio-temporal data appearing. For such data, an important part of model building is an assessment of the properties of the underlying covariance function describing variable, spatial and temporal correlations. In this...
