矩阵值函数平滑特征向量的√2估计AI 解读

Summary Modern statistical methods for multivariate time series rely on the eigendecomposition of matrix-valued functions such as time-varying covariance and spectral density matrices. The curse of indeterminacy or misidentification of smooth eigenvector functions has not received much attention. We resolve this important problem and recover smooth trajectories by examining the distance between the eigenvectors of the same matrix-valued function evaluated at two consecutive…

局部平稳因子模型：识别与非参数估计AI 解读

In this paper we propose a new approximate factor model for large cross-section and time dimensions. Factor loadings are assumed to be smooth functions of time, which allows considering the model as locally stationary while permitting empirically observed time-varying second moments. Factor loadings are estimated by the eigenvectors of a nonparametrically estimated covariance matrix. As is well known in the stationary case, this principal components estimator is consistent…

非平稳时间序列的动态因子模型拟合AI 解读

Factor modelling of a large time series panel has widely proven useful to reduce its cross-sectional dimensionality. This is done by explaining common co-movements in the panel through the existence of a small number of common components, up to some idiosyncratic behaviour of each individual series. To capture serial correlation in the common components, a dynamic structure is used as in traditional (uni- or multivariate) time series analysis of second order structure, i.e.…
