高维矩阵值时间序列的时空自回归模型AI 解读

Motivated by predicting intraday trading volume curves, we consider two spatio-temporal autoregressive models for matrix time series, in which each column may represent daily trading volume curve of one asset, and each row captures synchronized 5-minute volume intervals acrossmultiple assets. While traditional matrix time series focus mainly on temporal evolution, our approach incorporates both spatial and temporal dynamics, enabling simultaneous analysis of interactions…

时变可预测性的稳健推断：Sieve-IVX 方法AI 解读

Predictive regression models are often used to evaluate the predictive capability of economic fundamentals on bond and equity returns. Inferential procedures in these regressions typically employ parameter constancy or piecewise constancy in slope coefficients. Such formulations are prone to misspecification, more especially during periods of disturbance or evolution in prevailing economic and financial conditions, which can lead to size distortion and spurious evidence of…

可观测因子与潜在因子AI 解读

We test for temporal stability in local linear projection coefficients of observable factors on latent ones embedded in a high-dimensional vector obeying a linear factor model. The proposed test explores the fact that, under the null hypothesis, residuals from global linear projections of observable factors on latent ones, computed over a fixed time interval via Principal Component Analysis (PCA), should also be locally uncorrelated with the PCA factors. The test is fully…

广义自回归得分树与森林AI 解读

We propose methods to improve the forecasts from generalized autoregressive score (GAS) models (Creal, et al., 2013; Harvey, 2013) by localizing their parameters using decision trees and random forests. These methods avoid the curse of dimensionality faced by kernel-based approaches, and allow one to draw on information from multiple state variables simultaneously. We apply the new models to four distinct empirical analyses, and in all applications the proposed new methods…

动态矩阵因子模型：协变量驱动的时变载荷AI 解读

This paper proposes a covariate-driven matrix factor model in which the row and column loading matrices evolve as nonparametric functions of an observable time-varying covariate sequence. This flexible specification accommodates dynamic factor loadings driven by the temporal characteristics of the covariate. We develop a nonparametric estimation procedure that combines kernel smoothing with principal component analysis (PCA). Under high-dimensional asymptotics, we establish…

非线性模型时变参数的局部多项式估计AI 解读

We develop a novel asymptotic theory for local polynomial extremum estimators of time-varying parameters in a broad class of nonlinear time-series models, including discrete-valued ones. We show that the proposed estimators are asymptotically normally distributed under weak conditions. We also provide a precise characterization of the leading bias term due to smoothing. We demonstrate the usefulness of our general results by establishing primitive conditions for local…

基于个体特征的分位数因子模型估计AI 解读

This paper studies the estimation of characteristics-based quantile factor models where the factor loadings are unknown functions of observed individual characteristics, and the idiosyncratic error terms are subject to conditional quantile restrictions. We propose a three-stage estimation procedure that is easy to implement and has nice properties. The convergence rates, the limiting distributions of the estimated factors and loading functions, plus a consistent selection…

协变量增强的累积和泡沫监测程序AI 解读

We explore how information from covariates can be incorporated into the CUSUM-based real-time monitoring procedure for explosive asset price bubbles developed in Homm and Breitung (2012, Journal of Financial Econometrics 10, 198–231). Where dynamic covariates are present in the data generating process (DGP), the false positive rate (FPR) of the basic CUSUM procedure, which is based on the assumption that prices follow a univariate DGP, under the null of no explosivity will…

利用混频数据改进密度预测：贝叶斯方法AI 解读

We construct a modeling framework that allows for the flexible contribution of intraday information to predict the conditional distribution of asset returns. A flexible spline specification is proposed to capture the contribution of intraday returns inside GARCH and stochastic volatility specifications for daily returns. The “focused Bayesian” prediction framework is adopted to allow the intraday contribution to the simpler GARCH specification to be trained according to the…

因子结构的自适应残差检验AI 解读

This article addresses the critical issue of testing static approximate factor models against unspecified alternatives by proposing an adaptive residual-based test. Our methodology is versatile, encompassing alternatives such as factor models with nonlinear factor structures, conditional factor models, and factor models with structural breaks. We first establish the asymptotic properties of a so-called fixed bandwidth-based test, showing its asymptotic normality and power…

未知持续性形式下非线性预测回归的按时间修剪最小二乘AI 解读

Relatively, recent work by Jeganathan (2008, Cowles Foundation Discussion Paper 1649) and Wang (2014, Econometric Theory , 30(3), 509–535) on generalized martingale central limit theorems (MCLTs) implicitly introduces a new class of instrument arrays that yield (mixed) Gaussian limit theory irrespective of the persistence level in the data. Motivated by these developments, we propose a new semiparametric method for estimation and inference in nonlinear predictive regressions…

资产收益与期权需求的条件密度比模型估计AI 解读

Option-implied risk-neutral densities are widely used for constructing forward-looking risk measures. Meanwhile, risk aversion introduces a multiplicative pricing kernel between the risk-neutral and true conditional densities of the underlying asset’s return. This paper proposes a simple local estimator of the pricing kernel based on inverse density weighting. We characterize the asymptotic bias and variance of the estimator and its multiplicatively corrected density…

高频金融数据的大型瞬时波动率矩阵非参数估计AI 解读

In this paper, we consider estimating spot/instantaneous volatility matrices of high-frequency data collected for a large number of assets. We first combine classic nonparametric kernel-based smoothing with a generalized shrinkage technique in the matrix estimation for noise-free data under a uniform sparsity assumption, a natural extension of the approximate sparsity commonly used in the literature. The uniform consistency property is derived for the proposed spot…

具有响应延迟的相互激发点过程AI 解读

A novel statistical approach to estimating latency, defined as the time it takes to learn about an event and generate response to this event, is proposed. Our approach only requires a multidimensional point process describing event times, which circumvents the use of more detailed datasets which may not even be available. We consider the class of parametric Hawkes models capturing clustering effects and define latency as a known function of kernel parameters, typically the…

动态分位数的函数系数 VAR 模型及非参数金融网络构建AI 解读

In this article, we investigate a functional coefficient vector autoregressive model for conditional quantiles, in which the interdependences among tail risks such as Value-at-Risk are allowed to vary smoothly with a variable of general economy. Methodologically, we develop an easy-to-implement two-stage procedure to estimate functionals in the dynamic network system based on the deep learning method of neural networks and the local linear smoothing technique. We establish…

隐含波动率预测中的神经切线核：非线性函数自回归方法AI 解读

Forecasting implied volatility across different levels of moneyness and maturity is crucial yet challenging due to the high dimensionality of the Implied Volatility Surface (IVS) and the nonlinearity that characterizes its temporal dependence. We adopt a Nonlinear Functional Autoregressive (NFAR) framework to a sequence of IVS and employ neural networks that admit a Neural Tangent Kernel (NTK) parameterization to capture nonlinear interactions between surfaces. We illustrate…

系统性风险驱动投资组合选择的统计推断AI 解读

Portfolio selection in modern finance involves constructing optimal asset allocation strategies that balance risk and return. However, traditional portfolio selection faces new challenges due to systemic events, as exemplified by the financial crisis and the COVID-19 pandemic. In response, we introduce a nonparametric systemic risk-driven portfolio selection approach that models market and portfolio losses using kernel density estimation. In the event of market…

基于核现货波动率估计量的积分波动率泛函估计AI 解读

For a multidimensional Itô semimartingale, we consider the problem of estimating integrated volatility functionals. Jacod and Rosenbaum (2013, The Annals of Statistics 41(3), 1462–1484) studied a plug-in type of estimator based on a Riemann sum approximation of the integrated functional and a spot volatility estimator with a forward uniform kernel. Motivated by recent results that show that spot volatility estimators with general two-sided kernels of unbounded support are…

平稳持久数据下的时变参数回归AI 解读

We consider local level and local linear estimators for estimation and inference in time-varying parameter (TVP) regressions with general stationary covariates. The latter estimator also yields estimates for parameter derivatives that are utilized for the development of time invariance tests for the regression coefficients. Our theoretical framework is general enough to allow for a wide range of stationary regressors, including stationary long memory. We demonstrate that…

高维面板数据模型的 GMM 估计AI 解读

In this paper, we study a class of high dimensional moment restriction panel data models with interactive effects, where the factors are unobserved and these factor loadings are nonparametrically unknown smooth functions of individual characteristic variables. We allow the dimension of the parameter vector and the number of moment conditions to diverge with the sample size. This is a very general framework and is closely related to many existing linear and nonlinear panel…

利用预平均进行含微观结构噪声的即时波动率核估计AI 解读

We revisit the problem of estimating the spot volatility of an Itô semimartingale using a kernel estimator. A central limit theorem (CLT) with an optimal convergence rate is established for a general two-sided kernel. A new pre-averaging/kernel estimator for spot volatility is also introduced to handle the microstructure noise of ultra high-frequency observations. A CLT for the estimation error of the new estimator is obtained, and the optimal selection of the bandwidth and…

套利特征的动态同类群组AI 解读

We propose an asset pricing factor model constructed with semiparametric characteristics-based mispricing and factor loading functions. We approximate the unknown functions by B-splines sieve where the number of B-splines coefficients is diverging. We estimate this model and test the existence of the mispricing function by a power enhanced hypothesis test. The enhanced test solves the low power problem caused by diverging B-splines coefficients, with the strengthened power…

神经网络资产定价中的显著性检验AI 解读

This study proposes a novel hypothesis test for evaluating the statistical significance of input variables in multi-layer perceptron (MLP) regression models. Theoretical foundations are established through consistency results and estimation rate analysis using the sieves method. To validate the test’s performance in complex and realistic settings, an extensive Monte Carlo simulation is conducted. Results of the simulation reveal that the test has a high power and low rate of…

企业违约概率：单指标风险率模型方法AI 解读

Corporate probability of default (PD) prediction is vitally important for risk management and asset pricing. In search of accurate PD prediction, we propose a flexible yet easy-to-interpret default-prediction single-index hazard model (DSI). By applying it to a comprehensive U.S. corporate bankruptcy database we constructed, we discover an interesting V-shaped relationship, indicating a violation of the common linear hazard specification. Most importantly, the single-index…
