## Introduction

Many real-world time series exhibit **seasonal patterns**: monthly sales with annual cycles, quarterly GDP with repeating patterns, daily electricity demand with weekly cycles. Traditional seasonal models like **SAR** (Seasonal Autoregressive), **SMA** (Seasonal Moving Average), **SARMA**, and **SARIMA** are powerful tools, but their classical estimation methods assume Gaussian innovations.

This vignette demonstrates how **PMM2 estimation** for seasonal models provides:

1. **More efficient parameter estimates** when innovations are non-Gaussian
2. **Robust performance** with asymmetric and heavy-tailed errors
3. **Variance reductions of 20-50%** compared to classical methods
4. **Comprehensive tools** for model fitting, diagnostics, and comparison

## Part 1: Seasonal Autoregressive (SAR) Models

### Understanding SAR Models

A **SAR(p,P)_s** model with seasonal period *s* is:

$$
y_t = \phi_1 y_{t-1} + \cdots + \phi_p y_{t-p} + \Phi_1 y_{t-s} + \cdots + \Phi_P y_{t-Ps} + \varepsilon_t
$$

where:
- $\phi_i$ are non-seasonal AR coefficients
- $\Phi_j$ are seasonal AR coefficients
- $s$ is the seasonal period (e.g., 12 for monthly data, 4 for quarterly)

### Example: SAR(1,1)_12 with Monthly Data

```{r sar_1_1_12}
# Simulate SAR(1,1)_12 model
n <- 360  # 30 years of monthly data
phi <- 0.5      # Non-seasonal AR(1)
Phi <- 0.6      # Seasonal AR(1) at lag 12
s <- 12         # Monthly seasonal period

# Generate gamma-distributed innovations (right-skewed)
# This mimics asymmetric economic shocks
innovations <- rgamma(n + 100, shape = 2, scale = 1) - 2

# Generate SAR series
y <- numeric(n + 100)
for (t in (s + 2):(n + 100)) {
  y[t] <- phi * y[t-1] + Phi * y[t-s] + innovations[t]
}
y <- y[101:(n + 100)]  # Remove burn-in

# Convert to time series object for better plotting
y_ts <- ts(y, frequency = 12, start = c(2000, 1))

# Plot the series
plot(y_ts, main = "SAR(1,1)_12 Process with Skewed Innovations",
     ylab = "Value", xlab = "Year", col = "steelblue", lwd = 1.5)
abline(h = 0, col = "gray", lty = 2)
```

### Seasonal Patterns Visualization

```{r sar_seasonal_pattern}
# Extract seasonal patterns
months <- rep(1:12, length.out = length(y))
seasonal_df <- data.frame(
  Month = factor(months, labels = month.abb),
  Value = y
)

# Boxplot by month
boxplot(Value ~ Month, data = seasonal_df,
        main = "Seasonal Pattern in SAR(1,1)_12 Data",
        xlab = "Month", ylab = "Value",
        col = "lightblue", border = "steelblue")
```

### Fitting SAR Models: PMM2 vs Classical Methods

```{r fit_sar}
# Fit SAR(1,1)_12 with PMM2
fit_sar_pmm2 <- sar_pmm2(
  y,
  order = c(1, 1),           # (non-seasonal AR order, seasonal AR order)
  season = list(period = 12), # Monthly seasonality
  method = "pmm2",
  verbose = FALSE
)

# Fit with OLS for comparison
fit_sar_ols <- sar_pmm2(
  y,
  order = c(1, 1),
  season = list(period = 12),
  method = "ols",
  verbose = FALSE
)

# Fit with CSS for comparison
fit_sar_css <- sar_pmm2(
  y,
  order = c(1, 1),
  season = list(period = 12),
  method = "css",
  verbose = FALSE
)

# Compare estimates
cat("True parameters:\n")
cat("  phi (AR1):", phi, "\n")
cat("  Phi (SAR1):", Phi, "\n\n")

cat("OLS Estimates:\n")
print(coef(fit_sar_ols))

cat("\nCSS Estimates:\n")
print(coef(fit_sar_css))

cat("\nPMM2 Estimates:\n")
print(coef(fit_sar_pmm2))

# Display PMM2 summary with diagnostics
cat("\n")
summary(fit_sar_pmm2)
```

### Understanding PMM2 Efficiency

The PMM2 method computes the **variance correction factor** $g$:

```{r sar_g_factor}
# Extract moments from fit
m2 <- fit_sar_pmm2@m2
m3 <- fit_sar_pmm2@m3
m4 <- fit_sar_pmm2@m4

# Compute g-factor
g_result <- pmm2_variance_factor(m2, m3, m4)
cat("PMM2 variance correction factor:\n")
cat("  g =", round(g_result$g, 4), "\n")
cat("  Theoretical variance reduction:", 
    round((1 - g_result$g) * 100, 2), "%\n")

# For Gaussian innovations, g ≈ 1 (no improvement)
# For skewed/heavy-tailed innovations, g < 1 (PMM2 more efficient)
```

### Residual Diagnostics

```{r sar_diagnostics, fig.height=7}
# Create diagnostic plots
par(mfrow = c(2, 2))

# 1. Residuals over time
residuals_pmm2 <- fit_sar_pmm2@residuals
plot(residuals_pmm2, type = "l",
     main = "PMM2 Residuals",
     xlab = "Time", ylab = "Residual",
     col = "steelblue")
abline(h = 0, col = "red", lty = 2)

# 2. ACF of residuals
acf(residuals_pmm2, main = "ACF of PMM2 Residuals", 
    col = "steelblue", lwd = 2)

# 3. Q-Q plot
qqnorm(residuals_pmm2, main = "Q-Q Plot of PMM2 Residuals",
       pch = 20, col = "steelblue")
qqline(residuals_pmm2, col = "red", lwd = 2)

# 4. Histogram of residuals
hist(residuals_pmm2, breaks = 30, col = "lightblue",
     border = "steelblue", main = "Distribution of PMM2 Residuals",
     xlab = "Residual", freq = FALSE)
lines(density(residuals_pmm2), col = "darkblue", lwd = 2)

par(mfrow = c(1, 1))
```

## Part 2: Seasonal Moving Average (SMA) Models

### Understanding SMA Models

A **SMA(Q)_s** model is:

$$
y_t = \varepsilon_t + \Theta_1 \varepsilon_{t-s} + \cdots + \Theta_Q \varepsilon_{t-Qs}
$$

where $\Theta_j$ are seasonal MA coefficients.

### Example: SMA(1)_4 with Quarterly Data

```{r sma_1_4}
# Simulate SMA(1)_4 model (quarterly seasonality)
n <- 200
Theta <- 0.6    # Seasonal MA(1) coefficient
s <- 4          # Quarterly period

# Generate exponentially distributed innovations (right-skewed)
innovations <- rexp(n + 50, rate = 1) - 1

# Generate SMA series
y <- numeric(n + 50)
for (t in 1:s) {
  y[t] <- innovations[t]
}
for (t in (s + 1):(n + 50)) {
  y[t] <- innovations[t] + Theta * innovations[t - s]
}
y <- y[51:(n + 50)]  # Remove burn-in

# Convert to quarterly time series
y_ts <- ts(y, frequency = 4, start = c(2000, 1))

# Plot
plot(y_ts, main = "SMA(1)_4 Process with Exponential Innovations",
     ylab = "Value", xlab = "Year", col = "darkgreen", lwd = 1.5)
abline(h = 0, col = "gray", lty = 2)
```

### Quarterly Seasonal Pattern

```{r sma_quarterly_pattern}
quarters <- rep(1:4, length.out = length(y))
seasonal_df_q <- data.frame(
  Quarter = factor(quarters, labels = paste("Q", 1:4, sep = "")),
  Value = y
)

boxplot(Value ~ Quarter, data = seasonal_df_q,
        main = "Seasonal Pattern in SMA(1)_4 Data",
        xlab = "Quarter", ylab = "Value",
        col = "lightgreen", border = "darkgreen")
```

### Fitting SMA Models

```{r fit_sma}
# Fit SMA(1)_4 with PMM2
fit_sma_pmm2 <- sma_pmm2(
  y,
  order = 1,                 # Seasonal MA order
  season = list(period = 4), # Quarterly seasonality
  method = "pmm2",
  verbose = FALSE
)

# Fit with CSS for comparison
fit_sma_css <- sma_pmm2(
  y,
  order = 1,
  season = list(period = 4),
  method = "css",
  verbose = FALSE
)

# Compare estimates
cat("True parameter: Theta =", Theta, "\n\n")

cat("CSS Estimate:\n")
print(coef(fit_sma_css))

cat("\nPMM2 Estimate:\n")
print(coef(fit_sma_pmm2))

cat("\n")
summary(fit_sma_pmm2)
```

### SMA Convergence Behavior

```{r sma_convergence}
cat("PMM2 Convergence:\n")
cat("  Converged:", fit_sma_pmm2@convergence, "\n")
cat("  Iterations:", fit_sma_pmm2@iterations, "\n")
cat("  Residual variance (m2):", round(fit_sma_pmm2@m2, 4), "\n")

# Extract g-factor
g_sma <- pmm2_variance_factor(fit_sma_pmm2@m2, 
                              fit_sma_pmm2@m3, 
                              fit_sma_pmm2@m4)
cat("\nEfficiency:\n")
cat("  g-factor:", round(g_sma$g, 4), "\n")
cat("  Variance reduction:", round((1 - g_sma$g) * 100, 2), "%\n")
```

## Part 3: Monte Carlo Evidence for Seasonal Models

### SAR Monte Carlo Comparison

```{r sar_monte_carlo, eval=FALSE}
# This demonstrates the Monte Carlo approach
# (Set eval=TRUE to run, but it takes several minutes)

n_sims <- 500
n <- 200

sar_results <- data.frame(
  method = character(),

  Phi_estimate = numeric(),
  stringsAsFactors = FALSE
)

for (i in 1:n_sims) {
  # Generate data
  innov <- rgamma(n + 100, shape = 2, scale = 1) - 2
  y_sim <- numeric(n + 100)
  for (t in 13:(n + 100)) {
    y_sim[t] <- 0.5 * y_sim[t-1] + 0.6 * y_sim[t-12] + innov[t]
  }
  y_sim <- y_sim[101:(n + 100)]
  
  # Fit PMM2
  fit_pmm2 <- sar_pmm2(y_sim, order = c(1, 1), 
                       season = list(period = 12),

  # Store results
  sar_results <- rbind(sar_results,
    data.frame(method = "PMM2", 
               phi_estimate = coef(fit_pmm2)[1],

  )
}

# Compute variance reduction
var_pmm2_phi <- var(sar_results$phi_estimate[sar_results$method == "PMM2"])
var_css_phi <- var(sar_results$phi_estimate[sar_results$method == "CSS"])
var_reduction_phi <- (1 - var_pmm2_phi / var_css_phi) * 100

var_pmm2_Phi <- var(sar_results$Phi_estimate[sar_results$method == "PMM2"])
var_css_Phi <- var(sar_results$Phi_estimate[sar_results$method == "CSS"])

## Part 4: SARMA and SARIMA Models

### SARMA(p,P,q,Q)_s Models

SARMA models combine both SAR and SMA components:

```{r sarma_example}
# Simulate SARMA(1,0,0,1)_12 model
# This is SAR(1) × SMA(1) with period 12
n <- 300
phi <- 0.5
Theta <- 0.4
s <- 12

# Generate lognormal innovations (right-skewed)
innovations <- rlnorm(n + 100, meanlog = 0, sdlog = 0.5) - exp(0.125)

# For simplicity, use arima.sim
y <- arima.sim(
  n = n,
  model = list(
    ar = phi,
    seasonal = list(order = c(1, 0, 1), period = 12, 
                    sar = 0, sma = Theta)
  ),
  innov = innovations[1:n]
)

# Fit SARMA model with PMM2
fit_sarma_pmm2 <- sarma_pmm2(
  y,
  order = c(1, 1, 0, 1),     # (p, P, q, Q)
  season = list(period = 12),
  method = "pmm2",
  verbose = FALSE
)

# Fit with CSS
fit_sarma_css <- sarma_pmm2(
  y,
  order = c(1, 1, 0, 1),
  season = list(period = 12),
  method = "css",
  verbose = FALSE
)

# Compare
cat("True parameters: phi =", phi, ", Theta =", Theta, "\n\n")

cat("CSS Estimates:\n")
print(coef(fit_sarma_css))

cat("\nPMM2 Estimates:\n")
print(coef(fit_sarma_pmm2))
```

### SARIMA Models with Differencing

For non-stationary seasonal series:

> **Note:** SARIMA models with complex differencing structures may have convergence challenges. 
> The example below is provided for illustration but not executed during vignette build.
> See Monte Carlo results for empirically validated configurations.

```{r sarima_example, eval=FALSE}
# Simulate SARIMA(1,1,0)×(1,1,1)_12
# This includes regular differencing (d=1) and seasonal differencing (D=1)
n <- 400
phi <- 0.4
Phi <- 0.5
Theta <- 0.6

# Generate series (using standard arima.sim)
innovations <- rgamma(n + 100, shape = 2, scale = 1) - 2

y <- arima.sim(
  n = n,
  model = list(
    order = c(1, 1, 0),

  ),
  innov = innovations[1:n]
)

# Plot the non-stationary series

     ylab = "Value", xlab = "Time", col = "purple", lwd = 1.5)

# Fit SARIMA with PMM2
fit_sarima_pmm2 <- sarima_pmm2(
  y,
  order = c(1, 1, 0, 1),       # Model orders: (p, P, q, Q)
  seasonal = list(
    order = c(1, 1),           # Differencing orders: (d, D)
    period = 12
  ),
  method = "pmm2",
  verbose = FALSE
)

# Fit with CSS
fit_sarima_css <- sarima_pmm2(
  y,
  order = c(1, 1, 0, 1),       # Model orders: (p, P, q, Q)
  seasonal = list(order = c(1, 1), period = 12),
  method = "css",
  verbose = FALSE
)

# Compare
cat("True parameters:\n")
cat("  phi =", phi, ", Phi =", Phi, ", Theta =", Theta, "\n\n")

cat("CSS Estimates:\n")
print(coef(fit_sarima_css))

cat("\nPMM2 Estimates:\n")
print(coef(fit_sarima_pmm2))

summary(fit_sarima_pmm2)
```

## Part 7: Practical Guidelines

### When to Use Seasonal Models

**Use SAR/SMA/SARMA/SARIMA when:**

- Data exhibits **clear seasonal patterns** (visual inspection, ACF shows seasonal spikes)
- Regular period: monthly (s=12), quarterly (s=4), weekly (s=7)
- Seasonal dependencies are **systematic**, not random
- Enough data: at least **2-3 complete seasonal cycles**

### Choosing Between Seasonal Models

1. **SAR**: Autoregressive at seasonal lags → use when current value depends on past seasonal values
2. **SMA**: Moving average at seasonal lags → use when current value depends on past seasonal shocks
3. **SARMA**: Combination → more flexible, use when both components are present
4. **SARIMA**: Includes differencing → use for non-stationary seasonal series

### PMM2 vs Classical Methods

**Use PMM2 when:**

- Innovations are **non-Gaussian** (check residuals from classical fit)
- Data shows **asymmetry or heavy tails**
- **Sample size ≥ 200** for reliable moment estimation
- **Precision matters** more than speed

**Use classical methods (CSS/OLS) when:**

- Innovations are approximately **Gaussian**
- **Very small samples** (n < 100)
- **Speed is critical** (PMM2 is iterative)
- Exploratory analysis only

### Diagnostic Checklist

After fitting a seasonal model:

1. ✓ **Residuals**: Check for patterns over time
2. ✓ **ACF of residuals**: Should show no significant autocorrelation
3. ✓ **Seasonal ACF**: Check lags at multiples of s (e.g., 12, 24, 36)
4. ✓ **Q-Q plot**: Assess distributional assumptions
5. ✓ **Ljung-Box test**: Formal test for residual autocorrelation

```{r diagnostics_checklist}
# Example diagnostic workflow
residuals_check <- fit_sar_pmm2@residuals

# 1. Visual inspection
plot(residuals_check, type = "l", main = "Residuals Over Time",
     col = "steelblue", ylab = "Residual", xlab = "Time")
abline(h = 0, col = "red", lty = 2)

# 2. ACF check

## Part 8: Advanced Topics

### Multiple Seasonal Periods

Some series have **multiple seasonal patterns** (e.g., daily data with weekly and annual cycles). While EstemPMM currently supports single seasonality, you can:

1. **Deseasonalize** for the primary period first
2. **Model residuals** for secondary seasonality
3. **Combine forecasts** from multiple models

### Seasonal Adjustment

```{r seasonal_adjustment}
# Extract seasonal component from fitted model
resid_sar <- as.numeric(fit_sar_pmm2@residuals)
y_fit <- tail(as.numeric(y), length(resid_sar))
fitted_values <- y_fit - resid_sar
seasonal_component <- fitted_values - mean(fitted_values)

# Plot seasonally adjusted series
y_adjusted <- y_fit - seasonal_component

par(mfrow = c(2, 1))
plot(y_fit, type = "l", main = "Original Series (aligned to fitted residuals)",
     col = "steelblue", lwd = 1.5, ylab = "Value")
plot(y_adjusted, type = "l", main = "Seasonally Adjusted Series",
     col = "darkgreen", lwd = 1.5, ylab = "Value")
par(mfrow = c(1, 1))
```

### Bootstrap Inference for Seasonal Models

```{r bootstrap_seasonal, eval=FALSE}
# Bootstrap confidence intervals for SAR parameters
boot_sar <- ts_pmm2_inference(
  fit_sar_pmm2,
  B = 500,                    # Number of bootstrap samples
  method = "block",           # Block bootstrap for time series
  block_length = 12,          # Block length = seasonal period
  seed = 2025,
  parallel = FALSE
)

summary(boot_sar)
```

## Summary

**Key Takeaways:**

1. **Seasonal models** (SAR, SMA, SARMA, SARIMA) extend standard time series models to capture periodic patterns
2. **PMM2 estimation** provides **20-50% variance reduction** when innovations are non-Gaussian
3. **Comprehensive diagnostics** ensure model adequacy
4. **Real-world applications** benefit from PMM2's robustness to asymmetry and outliers
5. **Model selection** uses AIC/BIC and residual diagnostics

**Recommended Workflow:**

1. **Visualize** → identify seasonality and stationarity
2. **Fit baseline** → use classical methods (CSS/OLS)
3. **Check residuals** → assess distributional assumptions
4. **Refit with PMM2** → if residuals are non-Gaussian
5. **Validate** → diagnostics and out-of-sample forecasting
6. **Inference** → bootstrap for confidence intervals
