Probabilistic forecasting, linearity and nonlinearity hypothesis tests with bootstrapped linear and nonlinear artificial neural network

Time series can contain both linear and nonlinear components, and linear and nonlinear artificial neural networks (L&NL-ANNs) have been proposed to forecast them. Although L&NL-ANNs can produce well forecasting results, these neural networks have a handicap in point of view statistical science like other neural networks. The forecasts obtained from L&NL-ANNs may change depending on the time series…
