Understanding the load pattern created by compact fluorescent lamps is key to evaluating the impact on the utility's system peak demand and calculating energy savings. A household survey was distributed to consumers involved in a Danish CFL programme. The primary goal was to map the daily...

We review recent asymptotic results on some robust methods for multiple regres- sion. The regressors include stationary and non-stationary time series as well as polynomial terms. The methods include the Huber-skip M-estimator, 1-step Huber-skip M-estimators, in particular the Impulse Indicator...

Age-period-cohort models for Lexis diagrams are considered. The identi- cation problem is addressed by reparametrizing the models in terms of freely varying parameters. The reparametrisation covers all three Lexis diagrams. A new plot of the unidentied time eects is suggested and interpreted....

The Forward Search is an iterative algorithm concerned with detection of outliers and other unsuspected structures in data. This approach has been suggested, analysed and applied for regression models in the monograph Atkinson and Riani (2000). An asymptotic analysis of the Forward Search is...

The apc package includes functions for age-period-cohort analysis based on the canonical parametrisation of Kuang et al. (2008). The package includes functions for organizing the data, descriptive plots, a deviance table, estimation of (sub-models of) the age-period-cohort model, a plot for...

We consider cointegration tests in the situation where the cointegration rank is decient. This situation is of interest in nite sample analysis and in relation to recent work on identication robust cointegration inference. We derive asymptotic theory for tests for cointegration rank and for...

In regression we can delete outliers based upon a preliminary estimator and re-estimate the parameters by least squares based upon the retained observations. We study the properties of an iteratively defined sequence of estimators based on this idea. We relate the sequence to the Huber-skip...

We undertake a generalization of the cumulative sum of squares (CUSQ) test to the case of non-stationary autoregressive distributed lag models with quite general deterministic time trends.  The test may be validly implemented with either ordinary least squares residuals or standardized...
