Abstract

Change point analysis is crucial in many different fields of science because real world data are full of instability. In this paper, we introduce a new parametric technique that allows to perform multiple structural change point analysis in a single-dependent variable relationship. The main idea in the splitting method is a heuristic smart search for structural breaks with identification of corresponding significant variables at each stable period.
