How is the ACF calculated?
Autocorrelation Function (ACF) Let y h = E ( x t x t + h ) = E ( x t x t − h ) , the covariance observations time periods apart (when the mean = 0). Let = correlation between observations that are time periods apart. To find the covariance , multiply each side of the model for by x t − h , then take expectations.
What’s the difference in output between the commands 2 * 1 5 and 2 * 1 ): 5 Why is there a difference?
(a) What’s the difference in output between the commands 2*1:5 and (2*1):5? Why is there a difference? [Sol] The first will result in a vector 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and the later will yield 2, 3, 4, 5. The difference is simply due to thee order of operations.

How to calculate ACF for AR ( 1 ) model?
Formulas for the mean, variance, and ACF for a time series process with an AR (1) model follow. The (theoretical) mean of x t is. E ( x t) = μ = δ 1 − ϕ 1. The variance of x t is. Var ( x t) = σ w 2 1 − ϕ 1 2. The correlation between observations h time periods apart is. ρ h = ϕ 1 h.
How is sample autocorrelation function ( ACF ) defined?
This lesson defines the sample autocorrelation function (ACF) in general and derives the pattern of the ACF for an AR (1) model. Recall from Lesson 1.1 for this week that an AR (1) model is a linear model that predicts the present value of a time series using the immediately prior value in time.
Why does the ACF of a stationary series equal the denominator?
The ACF of the series gives correlations between x t and x t − h for h = 1, 2, 3, etc. Theoretically, the autocorrelation between x t and x t − h equals The denominator in the second formula occurs because the standard deviation of a stationary series is the same at all times.
How to create a stationary series in ACF?
To create a (possibly) stationary series, we’ll examine the first differences y t = x t − x t − 1. This is a common time series method for creating a de-trended series and thus potentially a stationary series. Think about a straight line – there are constant differences in average y for each change of 1-unit in x.
