Abstract

: In the case of U.S. national accounts, the data are revised for the first few years and every decade, which implies that we do not really have the final data. In this paper, we aim to predict the final data, using the preliminary data and/or the revised data. The following predictors are introduced and derived from a context of the nonlinear filtering or smoothing problem, which are: (i) prediction of the final data of time t given the preliminary data up to time t
