type="main" xml:id="jtsa12096-abs-0001"This article is concerned with confidence interval construction for functionals of the survival distribution for censored dependent data. We adopt the recently developed self-normalization approach (Shao, 2010), which does not involve consistent estimation...

In this note, several aspects of a recently proposed specification test in nonparametric models driven by an absolutely regular process are discussed. In particular, we give a more detailed asymptotic analysis of tests based on kernel methods under fixed alternatives using a central limit...

We propose a new sequential monitoring scheme for changes in the parameters of a multivariate time series. In contrast to procedures proposed in the literature which compare an estimator from the training sample with an estimator calculated from the remaining data, we suggest to divide the...

For a spatiotemporal process {Xj(s,t)∣s∈S,t∈T}j=1,…,n, where S denotes the set of spatial locations and T the time domain, we consider the problem of testing for a change in the sequence of mean functions {μj(s,t)∣s∈S,t∈T}j=1,…,n. In contrast to most of the literature, we are...

Analyzing the covariance structure of data is a fundamental task of statistics. While this task is simple for low‐dimensional observations, it becomes challenging for more intricate objects, such as multi‐variate functions. Here, the covariance can be so complex that just saving a...
