Review Time Series Analysis 

by JAMES D. HAMILTON

Description

It can be noted that large shifts and reconstructions took place in the economic and financial systems. These changes led to the formulation of new approaches in order for researchers to fully analyze economic and financial time series. To present recent developments in the landscape and to intellectually curate into a comprehensive compendium, Time Series Analysis was written. With great simplicity, this became a primer published specially for first-year graduate students who take an interest in the field. 

Integrated within the book are the latest trends and developments, including autoregressions, generalized method of moments, the economic and statistical ramifications of unit roots, time-dependent variances, and nonlinear time series frameworks. Together with the aforementioned, the author infused discussions on basic tools ranging from linear representations up to Kalman filter. The book’s overall structure allows an efficient application of theories as it is complete with economic theory, econometrics, and updated results ready for practice.
