## Abstract There has been growing interest in exploiting potential forecast gains from the nonlinear structure of selfβexciting threshold autoregressive (SETAR) models. Statistical tests have been proposed in the literature to help analysts check for the presence of SETARβtype nonlinearities in ob

β¦ Synopsis
The primary aim of this paper is to select an appropriate power transformation when we use ARMA models for a given time series. We propose a Bayesian procedure for estimating the power transformation as well as other parameters in time series models. The posterior distributions of interest are obtained utilizing the Gibbs sampler, a Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method. The proposed methodology is illustrated with two real data sets. The performance of the proposed procedure is compared with other competing procedures. # 1997

## Abstract Surface air temperature anomalies relative to seasonal variations are of great concern from a longβterm forecasting perspective. This article is concerned with marginally normalized time series in which the original data of the temperatures are standardized using the mean values and var
The "Ritz" program, originally written for the analysis of the Fourier transform spectra of the methanol isotopomers and presented in previous papers, has been extended in order to analyze the spectra of other molecules. This program evaluates the term values involved in the assigned transitions by
When studying the eects of atmospheric pollutants on health, multicollinearity often impedes the simultaneous study of various pollutants levels or entails a large imprecision in the estimation of their parameters. Hence there is a need for methods to reduce the dimensionability of the set explanato
