Abstract

The generalized partial autocorrelation (GPAC) method of Woodward and Gray (1981) and the 3-pattern method of Choi (1991) have been used for identifying ARMA processes. The methods are based on the extended Yule-Walker equations. The purpose of this paper is to show the 3-pattern method is superior to the GPAC method through theoretical analysis and computer simulations.
