Question
A trend stationary process is not strictly stationary, but can easily be transformed into a stationary process by [...], which is solely a function of time.
Answer
removing the underlying trend

This operation sounds too frequentist.. The uncertainty related to the trend is imposed on the trend removed process. Refer to Jaynes later.

Stationary process - Wikipedia
rting. In the latter case of a deterministic trend, the process is called a trend stationary process, and stochastic shocks have only transitory effects after which the variable tends toward a deterministically evolving (non-constant) mean. <span>A trend stationary process is not strictly stationary, but can easily be transformed into a stationary process by removing the underlying trend, which is solely a function of time. Similarly, processes with one or more unit roots can be made stationary through differencing. An important type of non-stationary process that does not include a trend-like behavior is

In the theory of stochastic processes, the Karhunen–Loève theorem (named after Kari Karhunen and Michel Loève), also known as the Kosambi–Karhunen–Loève theorem[1][2] is a representation of a stochastic process as an infinite linear combination of orthogonal functions, analogous to a Fourier series representation of a function on a bounded interval.

When the function space has an interval as the domain, the bilinear form may be the integral of the product of functions over the interval:

The functions f and g are orthogonal when this integral is zero: As with a basis of vectors in a finite-dimensional space, orthogonal functions can form an infinite basis for a function space.

The polar decomposition of a square complex matrix A is a matrix decomposition of the form

A = U P {\displaystyle A=UP\,}

where U is a unitary matrix and P is a positive-semidefinite Hermitian matrix.[1] Intuitively, the polar decomposition separates A into a component that stretches the space along a set of orthogonal axes, represented by P, and a rotation (with possible reflection) represented by U. The decomposition of the complex conjugate of A {\displaystyle A} is given by A ¯ = U ¯ {\displaystyle {\overline {A}}={\overline {U}}} P ¯ {\displaystyle {\overline {P}}} .
