- Abstract
This research introduces a novel approach to resampling periodically correlated time series using bandpass filters for frequency separation called the Variable Bandpass Periodic Block Bootstrap and then examines the significant advantages of this new method. While bootstrapping allows estimation of a statistic's sampling distribution by resampling the original data with replacement, and block bootstrapping is a model-free resampling strategy for correlated time series data, both fail to preserve correlations in periodically correlated time series. Existing extensions of the block bootstrap help preserve the correlation structures of periodically correlated processes but suffer from flaws and inefficiencies. Analyses of time series data containing cyclic, seasonal, or periodically correlated principal components often seen in annual, daily, or other cyclostationary processes benefit from separating these components. The Variable Bandpass Periodic Block Bootstrap uses bandpass filters to separate a periodically correlated component from interference such as noise at other uncorrelated frequencies. A simulation study is presented, demonstrating near universal improvements obtained from the Variable Bandpass Periodic Block Bootstrap when compared with prior block bootstrapping methods for periodically correlated time series., Competing Interests: The authors have declared that no competing interests exist., (Copyright: © 2024 Edward L.
