英文摘要：
  The autoregressive (AR) model is a widely used model to understand time series data. Traditionally, the innovation noise of the AR is modeled as Gaussian. However, many time series applications, for example, financial time series data, are non-Gaussian, therefore, the AR model with more general heavy-tailed innovations is preferred. Another issue that frequently occurs in time series is missing values, due to system data record failure or unexpected data loss. Although there are numerous works about Gaussian AR time series with missing values, as far as we know, there does not exist any work addressing the issue of missing data for the heavy-tailed AR model. In this paper, we consider this issue for the first time, and propose an efficient framework for parameter estimation from incomplete heavy-tailed time series based on a stochastic approximation expectation maximization (SAEM) coupled with a Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) procedure. The proposed algorithm is computationally cheap and easy to implement. The convergence of the proposed algorithm to a stationary point of the observed data likelihood is rigorously proved. Extensive simulations and real datasets analyses demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed framework.

中文摘要：
自回归（AR）模型是一种广泛用于理解时间序列数据的模型。传统上，AR的新息噪声被建模为高斯噪声。然而，许多时间序列应用，例如金融时间序列数据，都是非高斯的，因此，具有更一般的重尾创新的AR模型是首选。时间序列中经常出现的另一个问题是由于系统数据记录失败或意外数据丢失而丢失值。虽然有许多关于缺失值高斯AR时间序列的工作，但据我们所知，没有任何工作解决重尾AR模型的缺失数据问题。本文首次考虑了这一问题，提出了一种基于随机近似期望最大化（SAEM）和马尔可夫链蒙特卡罗（MCMC）过程的不完全重尾时间序列参数估计的有效框架。该算法计算量小，易于实现。严格证明了该算法收敛于观测数据似然的平稳点。大量的仿真和实际数据集分析证明了该框架的有效性。
