Central limit theorem for the log-regression wavelet estimation of the memory parameter in the Gaussian semi-parametric context. (English)
[J] Fractals 15, No. 4, 301-313 (2007). ISSN 0218-348X

Summary: We consider a Gaussian time series, stationary or not, with long memory exponent $d\in\Bbb R$. The generalized spectral density function of the time series is characterized by $d$ and by a function $f^*(\lambda)$ which specifies the short-range dependence structure. Our setting is semi-parametric in that both $d$ and $f^*$ are unknown, and only the smoothness of $f^*$ around $\lambda = 0$ matters. The parameter $d$ is the one of interest. It is estimated by regression using the wavelet coefficients of the time series, which are dependent when $d\ne 0$. We establish a central limit theorem for the resulting estimator $\widehat d$. We show that the deviation $\widehat d-d$, adequately normalized, is asymptotically normal and specify the asymptotic variance.
