Abstract #303393

This is the preliminary program for the 2005 Joint Statistical Meetings in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Currently included in this program is the "technical" program, schedule of invited, topic contributed, regular contributed and poster sessions; Continuing Education courses (August 7-10, 2005); and Committee and Business Meetings. This on-line program will be updated frequently to reflect the most current revisions.

Abstract:

NonGaussian univariate linear processes have been shown to admit essentially unique moving-average representation under various regularity conditions despite generally having nonunique moving-average representations. In this paper, we extend the one-dimensional result to multivariate processes. We prove that if the components of the error process are independent, the nonGaussian multivariate moving-average representation is unique up to shifts in the indices and invertible multiplicative factors under the condition the transfer function is of full-rank, plus other mild conditions. When mild intercomponent-dependent conditions are assumed, we prove the representation is unique, allowing only a single shift and an invertible matrix multiplier.
