Statistics for Long-Memory Processes (Book Jan Beran), and Related Functionality

Datasets and Functionality from 'Jan Beran' (1994). Statistics for Long-Memory Processes; Chapman & Hall. Estimation of Hurst (and more) parameters for fractional Gaussian noise, 'fARIMA' and 'FEXP' models.


The main purpose of this R package longmemo (and its predecessing S-plus scripts) has always been to provide

  • primarily the data sets
  • less importantly the code from chapter 12

of the book

@Book{BerJ94,

  publisher = {Chapman \& Hall},
  year = 	 1994,

Jan Beran sent the necessary files to me (by e-mail on 1995-09-15) with explicit consent to make them available electronically.
