On an $L^2$ norm for stationary ARMA processes

Abstract

We propose an L2L^2 norm for stationary Autoregressive Moving Average (ARMA) models. We look at ARMA models within the Hilbert space of the past with present of a true purely linearly non-deterministic stationary process XtX_t, and compute the L2L^2 norm based on its Wold decomposition. As an application of this L2L^2 norm, we derive bounds on the mean square prediction error for AR(1) models of MA(1) processes, and verify these bounds empirically for sample data.
