• know about conditioning in the multivariate normal
distribution as well as ordinary and generalized least squares
methods
• are able to understand a time series as a stochastic process and
understand the connection between stochastic processes and
dynamical systems, and in particular the Box-Jenkins models
(ARMA-type models)
• know about various stationarity and non-stationarity concepts for
Time Series: Weak and strong stationarity, causality,
autocovariance- and autocorrelation functions, integrated models,
long memory models, volatility models, and basic state-space models
• know about various modern time series and econometric models
within financial econometrics and financial engineering in discrete
time
• are able to interpret the statistical and possibly econometric
properties of time series
• are able to implement all phases in a classical time series
analysis: Identification, estimation, diagnostic checking,
prediction, and statistical/econometric interpretation
• are able to use correlograms and other graphical tools in the
identification phase
• are able to apply and make themselves acquainted with new
statistical methods to analyse time series
• are able to apply the concepts from time series in an
econometric or other broader context
• are able to perform qualified econometric analyses of financial
and other data including estimation and prediction using available
software
• are able to reflect on the discipline's approach to academic
problems at a high level and the discipline's relationship to
other subject areas
• are able to involve the knowledge area in solving complex
problems and thus achieve a new understanding of a given subject
area
As described in §17.
