The model factors into the normal distribution densitiesand, conditionally on $X_{i-1}$,Ignoring constants independent of $\theta$, the log likelihood isIts score isIn terms of the independent innovations,Variance additivity for independent random variables therefore yields

Since $I_1(\theta )=1$, the equality $I_n=n{I}_1$ holds for all $n$ exactly whennamely whenThus the information tensorizes only in the independent case.

Finally, the Cramer-Rao bound gives every unbiased estimator $\hat{\theta }$ the lower boundThis is the Fisher information in a stationary Gaussian autoregressive location model.
