The test we develop expresses the null hypothesis in terms of proximity of the distribution of a Markov chain (yt) to the subspace ~ of homogeneous Markov chains. The distance we use is the Kullback distance which turns out to be conceptually appropriate. Departure from the point null hypothesis all
In this paper we study the question of the conditions under which a hidden Markov chain itself exhibits Markovian behaviour. An insightful method to answer this question is based on a recursive ΓΏltering formula for the underlying chain.
