Abstract: A non-additive nonparametric approach is proposed for estimation and forecasting of structural time series models containing trend and seasonal components as well as additional covariates. A new kernel function is proposed that allows to take into account the specific ordered structure of seasonal effects. We provide a Monte Carlo analysis of the forecasting performance against competitors such as seasonal ARIMA and nonlinear innovation state-space models.
