Forecasting stock market returns is one of the most effective tools for risk management and portfolio diversification. There are several forecasting techniques in the literature for obtaining accurate forecasts for investment decision making. Numerous empirical studies have employed such methods...

This paper proposes a class of partial cointegrated models allowing for structural breaks in the deterministic terms. Moving-average representations of the models are given. It is then shown that, under the assumption of martingale difference innovations, the limit distributions of partial...

In this paper, the main idea is to compute the robust regression model, derived by experimentation, in order to achieve a model with minimum effects of outliers and fixed variation among different experimental runs. Both outliers and nonequality of residual variation can affect the response...

This paper addresses parameter estimation of spatial regression models incorporating spatial lag. These models are very important in spatial econometrics, where spatial interaction and structure are introduced into regression analysis. Because of spatial interactions, observations are not truly...
