Summary We propose a novel class of dynamic shrinkage processes for Bayesian time series and regression analysis. Building on a global–local framework of prior construction, in which continuous scale mixtures of Gaussian distributions are employed for both desirable shrinkage properties and computational tractability, we model dependence between the local scale parameters. The resulting processes inherit the desirable shrinkage behaviour of popular global–local priors, such…

This article provides a new methodology for estimating the term structure of corporate debt using a semiparametric penalized spline model. The method is applied to a case study of AT&T bonds. Typically, very few data are available on individual corporate bond prices, too little to find a nonparametric estimate of term structure from these bonds alone. This problem is solved by “borrowing strength” from Treasury bond data. More specifically, we combine a nonparametric model…
