O. Ciftcioglu et al., A CONSISTENT ESTIMATOR FOR THE MODEL ORDER OF AN AUTOREGRESSIVE PROCESS, IEEE transactions on signal processing, 42(6), 1994, pp. 1471-1477
A consistent estimator for the model order of an autoregressive proces
s is derived based on a statistical F test. Its asymptotic properties
are considered. The procedure is compared with Akaike's information th
eoretical approach and found to result in lower model orders in genera
l.
