During the past thirty years, there has been considerable concern about combination of forecasts. Many of the articles and books dedicated to this specific area explain and demonstrate that combining multiple individual forecasts can improve forecast accuracy. The improvement in accuracy mainly...

Methods of dimension reduction are very helpful and almost a necessity if we want to analyze high-dimensional time series since otherwise modelling affords many parameters because of interactions at various time-lags. We use a dynamic version of Sliced Inverse Regression (SIR; Li (1991)), which...

We investigate the possibility of exploiting partial correlation graphs for identifying interpretable latent variables underlying a multivariate time series. It is shown how the collapsibility and separation properties of partial correlation graphs can be used to understand the relation between...
