Abstract

A simple operation is described which inverts Bernoulli multiplication. It is used to define two classes of stationary reversible Markov processes with general marginal distribution. These are compared to the DAR(1) process of Jacobs and Lewis (1978). LJAR(1) is used to model ovulation rate time series.
