We study multiple linear regression model under non-normally distributed random error by considering the family of generalized secant hyperbolic distributions. We derive the estimators of model parameters by using modified maximum likelihood methodology and explore the properties of the modified maximum likelihood estimators so obtained. We show that the proposed estimators are more efficient and robust than the commonly used least square estimators. We also develop the relevant test of hypothesis procedures and compared the performance of such tests vis-a-vis the classical tests that are based upon the least square approach.

We establish an Edgeworth expansion for the distribution of the Whittle maximum likelihood estimator of the parameter of a time series generated by a linear regression model with Gaussian, stationary, and long-memory residuals. This is done by imposing an extra condition on coefficients of the regression model in addition to the standard conditions imposed on the the spectral density function and the parameter values and making use of the results of Andrews et al. (2005), who provided an Edgeworth expansion for the residual component.
