Threshold Autoregressive Models (TAR) along with other nonlinear time series models have attracted much attention in recent years in time series analysis. TAR models have been applied to a variety of time series. It has been reported that they have a good in sample fit but like many other...

This approach can cope … with heterogeneous error distributions and is proven to hold asymptotically. In simulation studies factor based bootstrap … inference outperforms the wild bootstrap and pairs bootstrap approach according to its size features. Regarding current account …
