Abstract
This article studies estimation of a stationary autocovariance structure in the presence of an unknown number of mean shifts. Here, a Yule-Walker moment estimator for the autoregressive parameters in a dependent time series contaminated by mean shift changepoints is proposed and studied. The estimator is based on first order differences of the series and is proven consistent and asymptotically normal when the number of changepoints and the series length satisfies as
