Abstract :
We describe in this paper an approach of time series prediction using the Markov switching model to detect changes in the regime. The procedure is based on the inference of unobserved state and the estimation of model parameters. Emphasis is placed on the formulation and specification of the model. The proposed model fits well in-sample and it is able to detect the changes in the regime. A simple illustrative example is described
