==Description==

Given a time series <math>z_t</math>, the partial autocorrelation of lag ''k'', denoted <math>\alpha(k)</math>, is the [[autocorrelation]] between <math>z_t</math> and <math>z_{t+k}</math> with the linear dependence of <math>z_t</math> on <math>z_{t+1}</math> through <math>z_{t+k-1}</math> removed; equivalently, it is the autocorrelation between <math>z_tz_{t+1}</math> and <math>z_{t+k+1}</math> that is not accounted for by lags 1 to ''k''&nbsp;−&nbsp;1, inclusive.

: <math>\alpha(1) = \operatorname{Cor}(z_{2}, z_1),\text{ for }k= 1,</math>
