Abstract

A statistical method for estimating the factorisation of the spectral density of a stationary point process is presented and asymptotic properties of the resulting estimates are derived. The estimated functions are of interest in the analysis of a self-exciting process and more generally in the problem of linear prediction, and can be viewed as an alternative second-order analysis of the process. Some examples are discussed.
