Modeling COVID-19 Infection Rates by Regime-Switching Unobserved Components Models
The COVID-19 pandemic is characterized by a recurring sequence of peaks and troughs. This article proposes a regime-switching unobserved components (UC) approach to model the trend of COVID-19 infections as a function of this ebb and flow pattern ...

Unobserved-Components Models for Seasonal Adjustment Filters [PDF]
Abstract Abstract. Time series models are presented, for which the seasonal-component estimates delivered by linear least squares signal extraction closely approximate those of the standard option of the widely-used Census X-11 program.

A simple analytical approach to deal with unobserved feeding in lifetime measurements using a plunger method [PDF]
Determination of lifetime of low-lying states using a plunger method could be a subject of systematic uncertainty if, among else, correction of unobserved feeding is not properly taken into account. In this paper, a simple analytical approach is

On the Automatic Identification of Unobserved Components Models [PDF]
Automatic identi cation of time series models is a necessity once the big data era has come and is staying among us. This has become obvious for many companies and public entities that has passed from a crafted analysis of each individual problem to handle a tsunami of information that has to be processed e ciently, online and in record time. Automatic

On Finite and Non-Finite Bayesian Mixture Models
In this paper, a Bayesian paradigm of a mixture model with finite and non-finite components is expounded for a generic prior and likelihood that can be of any distributional random noise.
