This paper presents a proposal based on an evolutionary algorithm for imputing missing observations in time series. A genetic algorithm based on the minimization of an error function derived from their autocorrelation function, mean, and variance is presented. All methodological aspects of the genetic structure are presented. An extended description of the design of the fitness function is provided. Four application examples are provided and solved by using the proposed method.

This paper develops a Bayesian formulation of Kalman filter under the errors having elliptically contoured distributions in both observation equation and system (or state) equation, using some recent results in multivariate analysis. Estimation of parameters in case of missing observations and prediction of missing observations as well are dealt with under the above set up of autoregressive-moving average process in time series. Two illustrative examples are presented with the help of AR(1) model and ARMA (1, 1) model.

A simple technique for directly testing the parameters of a time-series regression model for instability across frequencies is presented. The method can be implemented easily in the time domain, so that parameter instability across frequency bands can be conveniently detected and modeled in conjunction with other econometric features of the problem at hand, such as simultaneity, cointegration, missing observations, and cross-equation restrictions. The usefulness of the new technique is illustrated with an application to a cointegrated consumption-income regression model, yielding a straightforward test of the permanent income hypothesis.
