Hello!
I am looking for a function which computes the maximum likelihood
estimator of the autocorrelation function for a gaussian time series.
Does a such function already exist in R?
The estimator by default in R, acf(), uses the method of moments.
Thanks a lot,
Alain

You will need to give us a reference, as the acf is not a parameter in a
model in your description and MLEs apply to model parameters.
Just possibly ar.mle is what you are looking for, perhaps plus ARMAacf?

You are right, my question was not clear.
In fact, I want to estimate the k first components of the acf, i.e. I
want to estimate the k parameters (c(0),c(1),...c(k-1)), where c is the
autocorrelation function, by a maximum likelihood estimator.

In fact, I need it in the general case, not only for an ARMA process.
Unfortunately, I have no reference to give so I will code it. Sorry for
the trouble.
