Abstract

We consider the problem of predicting integrals of second order processes whose covariances satisfy some Hölder regularity condition of order α > 0. When α is an odd integer, linear estimators based on regular sampling designs were constructed and asymptotic results for the approximation error were derived. We extend this result to any α > 0. When 2K < α ≤ 2K + 2, K a non-negative integer, we use an appropriate predictor based on the Euler-MacLaurin formula of order K with regular sampling designs. We give the corresponding result for the mean square error.
