Abstract. A modification of the minimum Akaike information criterion (AIC) procedure (and of related procedures like the Bayesian information criterion (BIC)) for order estimation in autoregressive moving‐average (ARMA) models is introduced. This procedure has the advantage that consistency for the order estimators obtained via this procedure can be established without restricting attention to only a finite number of models. The behaviour of these newly introduced order estimators is also analysed for the case when the data‐generating process is not an ARMA process (transfer function/spectral density approximation). Furthermore, the behaviour of the order estimators obtained via minimization of BIC (or of related criteria) is investigated for a non‐ARMA data‐generating process.
