Abstract

We review some applications of continuous-time ARMA processes in the modelling of time series observed at discrete times t 1,…, t N . The problem of finding a continuous-time ARMA process in which a given discrete-time ARMA process can be “embedded” is discussed and some of the properties of a family of continuous-time analogues of Tong’s SETARMA models are considered. An approach to inference for such models is described and illustrated with reference to a variety of data sets.
