R help - Mar 2007 - Bootstrap for Time Series

Hi everyone, 
   
  Currently I work for Master degree
   
  in statistics at Garyounis University.
   
  My dissertation on bootstrapping linear time series models,
   
  I mainly use  R language, however, I must confess that I find it
   
  difficult to bootstrap moving average models and ARMA models ,
   
  therefore I would be very grateful if you advise me on this matter.
   
  Yours  
   
Tarik

Tarik,

a fast search for bootstrap and "time series" at
http://finzi.psych.upenn.edu/search.html
show some interesting packges that already exists: waveslim and boot.

The first uses wavelet techniques to decompose the series and then
bootstrap it using the function dwpt.boot. The second resample time
series in blocks or based on models. This seems more appropriate to
your needs.

Take a look at these packages and others using the site above.

HTH,

Rogerio.
