Having determined the optimal model order for the given segment of signal, the model can be estimated using one of the following MATLAB functions arburg, arcov (uses a covariance approach), armcov (uses a modified covariance approach), or aryule (uses the Yule-Walker equations... 

Estimating the model parameter values is in general performed using one of two methods the method of moments leading to the Yule-Walker equations or the maximum-likelihood method. Although the Yule-Walker equations are simpler, they only provide an efficient estimator for autoregressive models. Also, the Yule-Walker equations are useful for estimating the partial autocorrelation function. Least-squares estimates are also possible, but they are difficult to solve analytically due to the complex nature of the models.

The Yule-Walker equations are a method of moment estimator for autoregressive processes. 

It can be noted that, irrespective of the approach taken, these equations will generally have to be solved numerically using some form of an optimisation algorithm. The required initial guess can be obtained based on either the Yule-Walker parameter estimates or some other approaches. For autoregressive models, a closed-form solution to the above equations is available. The final result is identical to the Yule-Walker parameter estimates for an autoregressive model.
