保持核算关系的层级时间序列过程失真修正AI 解读

Process distortion, that is, the corruption of time series dynamics, can be present in hierarchical time series subject to aggregation. The presence of seasonal patterns in seasonally adjusted data, known as residual seasonality (RS), is an example of process distortion. In the case of U.S. Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and its sub-aggregates, it is important that there be no RS at monthly or quarterly frequencies, while preserving aggregation relations between the various…

检验预测效率的工具变量方法AI 解读

ABSTRACT We study a specific form of forecast efficiency that requires forecast errors to be unpredictable from forecast revisions. One approach aggregates forecasts and estimates an aggregated efficiency regression, while another estimates the relationship by running separate regressions for each individual and then aggregating. We demonstrate that both estimators can be asymptotically biased in the presence of public noise. To address these biases, we propose instrumenting…

通过多元谱的总Frobenius范数进行模型识别AI 解读

Abstract We study the integral of the Frobenius norm as a measure of the discrepancy between two multivariate spectra. Such a measure can be used to fit time series models, and ensures proximity between model and process at all frequencies of the spectral density—this is more demanding than Kullback–Leibler discrepancy, which is instead related to one-step ahead forecasting performance. We develop new asymptotic results for linear and quadratic functionals of the…

长记忆时间序列谱密度与谱分布的固定b渐近推断AI 解读

This paper studies taper-based estimates of the spectral density utilizing a fixed bandwidth ratio asymptotic framework, and makes several theoretical contributions: (i) we treat multiple frequencies jointly, (ii) we allow for long-range dependence or anti-persistence at differing frequencies, (iii) we allow for tapers that are only piecewise smooth or discontinuous, including flat-top and truncation tapers, (iv) we study higher-order accuracy through the limit…

Random fields play a central role in the analysis of spatially correlated data and, as a result, have a significant impact on a broad array of scientific applications. This paper studies the cepstral random field model, providing recursive formulas that connect the spatial cepstral coefficients to an equivalent moving-average random field, which facilitates easy computation of the autocovariance matrix. We also provide a comprehensive treatment of the asymptotic theory for…
