摘要
When a time series model is used for making predictions, then it is often meaningful to evaluate its performance on the basis of cumulated multi-step-ahead prediction errors. In this paper some theoretical properties of cumulated multi-step-ahead predictors and cumulated multi-step-ahead prediction errors for vector autoregressive moving average processes are considered. A general expression for the optimal cumulated multi-step-ahead predictor is derived. The predictors are based on the Kalman filter algorithm. To determine the maximum prediction horizon of cumulated multi-step-ahead predictions, two information measures are introduced. For univariate ARMA(p, q) processes with p < 3 and q < 3, these measures are evaluated analytically as well as numerically. It is shown that the information content of cumulated multi-step-ahead predictions depends on the prediction horizon and the location of the roots of the AR and MA polynomials.
