Slide 4: Simple explanation of how the scanner works
Simple explanation of how the scanner works: Which part of the equation that you don’t understand?! • Let {Xn} be a strictly stationary symmetrical and j be mixing sequence of random variables, E X1 = 0, Sn = ånj=1Xj, s2n = D Sn, limn®µsn = µ, Sn = max1£ k £ n Sk, x+ = max(0, x). Theorem. Suppose th
