尾部风险度量的无模型推断AI 解读

Understanding uncertainty in estimating risk measures is important in modern financial risk management. In this paper we consider a nonparametric framework that incorporates auxiliary information available in covariates and propose a family of inferential methods for the value at risk, expected shortfall, and related risk measures. A two-step generalized empirical likelihood test statistic is constructed and is shown to be asymptotically pivotal without requiring variance…

时间序列条件分位数的非参数推断AI 解读

This paper considers model-free hypothesis testing and confidence interval construction for conditional quantiles of time series. A new method, which is based on inversion of the smoothed empirical likelihood of the conditional distribution function around the local polynomial estimator, is proposed. The associated inferential procedures do not require variance estimation, and the confidence intervals are automatically shaped by data. We also construct the bias-corrected…

波动率结构变化的高功效检验AI 解读

Detecting structural changes in volatility is important for understanding volatility dynamics and stylized facts observed for financial returns such as volatility persistence. We propose modified CUSUM and LM tests that are built on a robust estimator of the long-run variance of squared series. We establish conditions under which the new tests have standard null distributions and diverge faster than standard tests under the alternative. The theory allows smooth and abrupt…

波动率函数的倾斜非参数估计及实证应用AI 解读

This article proposes a novel positive nonparametric estimator of the conditional variance function without reliance on logarithmic or other transformations. The estimator is based on an empirical likelihood modification of conventional local-level nonparametric regression applied to squared residuals of the mean regression. The estimator is shown to be asymptotically equivalent to the local linear estimator in the case of unbounded support but, unlike that estimator, is…

扩散模型的重加权函数估计AI 解读

The local linear method is popular in estimating nonparametric continuous-time diffusion models, but it may produce negative results for the diffusion (or volatility) functions and thus lead to insensible inference. We demonstrate this using U.S. interest rate data. We propose a new functional estimation method of the diffusion coefficient based on reweighting the conventional Nadaraya–Watson estimator. It preserves the appealing bias properties of the local linear estimator…
