Abstract

In this note I provide some discussion on the paper by “High-dimensional auto covariance matrices and optimal linear prediction” by T. McMurry and D. Politis.

Highlights

  • I congratulate Professor McMurry and Professor Politis for their important contribution to the time series prediction problem

  • If the covariance functions were known, the classical celebrated Wiener-Kolmogorov theory lays a beautiful foundation of the prediction problem

  • The covariance functions are not known, and they need to be estimated from data

Summary

Introduction

I congratulate Professor McMurry and Professor Politis for their important contribution to the time series prediction problem. If the covariance functions were known, the classical celebrated Wiener-Kolmogorov theory lays a beautiful foundation of the prediction problem. One can derive various close-form expressions for the best linear predictors. The covariance functions are not known, and they need to be estimated from data.
