Along withthe addition of a new co-author, Greta Ljung, a student of GeorgeBox, the Fifth Edition provides a clearly written exploration ofthe key methods for building, classifying, testing, and analyzingstochastic models for time series as well as their use in fiveimportant areas of application: forecasting; determining thetransfer function of a system; modeling the effects of interventionevents; developing multivariate dynamic models; and designingsimple control schemes. New to this edition are more exercises;streamlined chapter introductions; updated examples and references;increased coverage of multivariate time series and their use infinancial applications; SV models, MCMC based inference, andBayesian Network modeling; and the incorporation of the'R' freeware language.
