Abstract :
In this paper a new characterization for the quality of stochastic, linear-in-parameters, difference equations models is given. This requires a good model to have accurate parameter estimates and uncorrelated residues. A criterion based on this characterization is derived and compared with other criteria which depend on minimizing the mean square of model residues.
