Prediction of missing observations by a control method

Statistics Theory 2011-11-09 v3 Statistics Theory

Abstract

Consider a time series with missing observations but a known final point. Using control theory ideas we estimate/predict these missing observations. We obtain recurrence equations which minimize sum of squares of a control sequence. An advantage of this method is in easily computable formulae and flexibility of its application to different structures of missing data.
