Specification tests of calibrated option pricing models
校准期权定价模型的设定检验
In spite of the popularity of model calibration in finance, empirical researchers have put more emphasis on model estimation than on the equally important goodness-of-fit problem. This is due partly to the ignorance of modelers, and more to the ability of existing statistical tests to detect specification errors. In practice, models are often calibrated by minimizing a loss function of the differences between the modeled and actual observations. Under this approach, it is…
