Abstract: Following the nonstationary univariate time series model of Rosen et al. (2012), we propose an adaptive estimation of time-varying spectra and cross-spectra for analyzing possibly nonstationary multivariate time series. Under the Bayesian framework, the estimation is implemented by smoothing stochastic approximation Monte Carlo (SSAMC) methods. We show by simulation study that the proposed method achieves good performance for time series whether changing abruptly or smoothly. The superiority to the other existing methods is also investigated. An application to longitudinal vibration data of the containership provides a wave-approach angle range, which should be recommended when sailing under a harsh sea condition.
