基于最大均值差异的 Copula 估计AI 解读

This article deals with robust inference for parametric copula models. Estimation using canonical maximum likelihood might be unstable, especially in the presence of outliers. We propose to use a procedure based on the maximum mean discrepancy (MMD) principle. We derive nonasymptotic oracle inequalities, consistency and asymptotic normality of this new estimator. In particular, the oracle inequality holds without any assumption on the copula family, and can be applied in the…

修正的 Clarke 检验及模型选择扩展AI 解读

We introduce a large family of model selection tests based on the expectation of an arbitrary, possibly non-smooth, parametric criterion function of the data. The considered methodology is illustrated for several econometric problems, including linear and quantile regression. It covers the case of strictly locally non-nested models and some overlapping models. The asymptotic theory of the proposed test statistic is stated. A general exchangeable bootstrap scheme allows the…

基于藤结构的动态资产相关性AI 解读

We develop a new method for generating dynamics of conditional correlation matrices of asset returns. These correlation matrices are parameterized by a subset of their partial correlations, whose structure is described by a set of connected trees called “vine”. Partial correlation processes can be specified separately and arbitrarily, providing a new family of very flexible multivariate GARCH processes, called “vine-GARCH” processes. We estimate such models by quasi-maximum…

动态条件相关模型的平稳性AI 解读

We provide conditions for the existence and the uniqueness of strictly stationary solutions of the usual Dynamic Conditional Correlation GARCH models (DCC-GARCH). The proof is based on Tweedie’s (1988) criteria, after having rewritten DCC-GARCH models as nonlinear Markov chains. We also study the existence of their moments and discuss the tightness of our sufficient conditions.

一种非参数模拟最大似然估计方法AI 解读

Existing simulation-based estimation methods are either general purpose but asymptotically inefficient or asymptotically efficient but only suitable for restricted classes of models. This paper studies a simulated maximum likelihood method that rests on estimating the likelihood nonparametrically on a simulated sample. We prove that this method, which can be used on very general models, is consistent and asymptotically efficient for static models. We then propose an…
