In this paper we study the performance of the GARCH model and two of its non-linear modifications to forecast weekly stock market volatility. The models are the Quadratic GARCH (Engle and Ng, 1993) and the Glosten, Jagannathan and Runkle (1992) models which have been proposed to describe, for exampl

Abstract
Numerous theoretical models suggests that business cycles involve nonlinear processes. In this paper we examine whether two parametric, nonlinear timeβseries modelsβthe bilinear and threshold modelsβcan exploit apparent nonβlinearity in industrial production to provide forecasts superior to those derived from the standard autoregressive models.

## Abstract This paper estimates linear and nonβlinear error correction models for the spot prices of four different coffee types. In line with economic priors, we find some evidence that when prices are too high, they move back to equilibrium more slowly than when they are too low. This may reflec
Statistical models have been used to provide operational seasonal forecasts of rainfall over southern Africa since 1992. The Climatology Research Group has been using a quadratic discriminant analysis model since November 1994. The model relates rainfall over different areas of South Africa to princ
