内生抽样时点下离散观测价格过程的跳跃检验AI 解读

This paper introduces a novel nonparametric high-frequency jump test for discretely observed Itô semimartingales. Based on observations sampled recursively at first exit times from a symmetric double barrier, our method distinguishes between threshold exceedances caused by the Brownian component and jumps, which enables the construction of a feasible, noise-robust statistical test. Simulation results demonstrate superior finite-sample performance of our test compared to…

定制已实现波动率：面向波动率预测的风险度量AI 解读

Standard realized volatility (RV) measures estimate the latent volatility of an asset price using high frequency data with no reference to how or where the estimate will subsequently be used. This paper presents methods for “tailoring” the estimate of volatility to the application in which it will be used. For example, if the volatility measure will be used in a specific parametric forecasting model, it may be possible to exploit that knowledge to construct a better measure…

一致最小方差无偏分块估计量AI 解读

We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for an (Unbiased) Block estimator to have Uniformly Minimum Variance. Our theory parallels the theory of UMVU estimation, the main novel insight being the focus on the covariance among blocks. We use this theory to derive lower variance bounds for block estimators of functionals of high-frequency volatility when the block size is fixed. We further show the relevance of the new theory for the classical problem of estimation of…

高频数据下的高维回归系数检验AI 解读

This paper presents the first study on high-dimensional regression coefficient tests with high-frequency financial data. These tests allow the number of regressors to be larger than the number of observations within each estimation block and can grow to infinity in asymptotics. In this paper, the sum-type test and max-type test have been proposed, where the former is suitable for the dense alternative (many small betas) and the latter is suitable for the sparse alternative…

稳健的已实现积分贝塔估计及其动态分析AI 解读

In this paper, we develop a robust non-parametric realized integrated beta estimator using high-frequency financial data contaminated by microstructure noise, which is robust to the stylized features, such as the time-varying beta and the price-dependent and autocorrelated microstructure noise. With this robust realized integrated beta estimator, we investigate dynamic structures of integrated betas and find a persistent autoregressive structure. To model this dynamic…

已实现漂移AI 解读

Drift and volatility are two mainsprings of asset price dynamics. While volatilities have been studied extensively in the literature, drifts are commonly believed to be impossible to estimate and largely ignored in the literature. This paper shows how to detect drift using realized autocovariance implemented on high-frequency data. We use a theoretical treatment in which the classical model for the efficient price, an Itō semimartingale possibly contaminated by…

利用短期期权估计日内波动率模式AI 解读

We propose a nonparametric estimator for the deterministic periodic component of volatility from short-dated options within an in-fill asymptotic setting. The estimator uses options with zero and one day to expiration sampled at high-frequency during a trading day. At each point in time, we aggregate the options to form nonparametric estimates of conditional risk-neutral expectations of future integrated return variation for the two available option tenors. A suitable ratio…

积分波动率与瞬时波动率的稳健估计AI 解读

We introduce a new method to estimate the integrated volatility (IV) and the spot volatility (SV) based on noisy high-frequency data. Our method employs the ReMeDI approach introduced by Li and Linton (2022) to estimate the moments of microstructure noise and thereby eliminate their influence, and the pre-averaging method to target the volatility parameter. The method is robust: it can be applied when the efficient price exhibits stochastic volatility and jumps, the…

高频双因子模型中微观结构噪声与有效价格共同因子的估计AI 解读

We develop the Double Principal Component Analysis (DPCA) based on a dual factor structure for high-frequency intraday returns contaminated with microstructure noise. The dual factor structure allows a factor structure for microstructure noise in addition to the factor structure for efficient log-prices. We construct estimators of factors for both efficient log-prices and microstructure noise as well as their common components, and provide uniform consistency of these…

通过一阶条件揭示工厂—产品生产率：对 Orr（2022）的稳健复现AI 解读

ABSTRACT We assess the replicability of Orr's (2022) method for estimating within‐plant productivity across product lines, which combines demand estimation with cost minimization. The original study uses input price shocks in other output markets as instrumental variables, with exclusion restrictions based on downstream purchase shares. Reconstructing the original dataset of Indian machinery producers from 2000–2007, we reproduce the main productivity patterns and…

处理效应估计的 PCDID 方法：进一步考察AI 解读

ABSTRACT In the present paper, we study the so‐called “PCDID” approach to treatment effects estimation in panels with interactive effects where the factors represent trends whose effect need not be parallel across the cross‐sectional units. Our interest in this step‐wise approach originates with the observation that the interactive effects are ignored in the first step, which should not be possible without affecting subsequent steps. We confirm that the estimated second‐step…

基于广义特征值的高维稀疏回归方向识别与极小极大估计AI 解读

In high-dimensional (HD) sparse linear regression, parameter selection and estimation are addressed using a constraint $l_0$ on the direction of the parameter vector. We begin by establishing a general result that identifies this direction through the leading generalized eigenspace of specific measurable matrices. Using this result, we propose a novel approach to the selection of the best subsets by solving an empirical generalized eigenvalue problem to estimate the…

部分识别下处理选择问题的决策理论AI 解读

Abstract We apply classical statistical decision theory to a large class of treatment choice problems with partial identification. We show that, in a general class of problems with Gaussian likelihood, all decision rules are admissible; it is maximin-welfare optimal to ignore all data; and, for severe enough partial identification, there are infinitely many minimax-regret optimal decision rules, all of which sometimes randomize the policy recommendation. We uniquely…

随机化奇异值分解的扰动分析及统计应用AI 解读

Randomized singular value decomposition (RSVD) is a class of computationally efficient algorithms for computing the truncated SVD of large data matrices. Given an m×n matrix M̂, the prototypical RSVD algorithm outputs an approximation of the k leading left singular vectors of M̂ by computing the SVD of M̂(M̂⊤M̂)gG; here g≥1 is an integer and G∈Rn×k˜ is a random Gaussian sketching matrix with k˜≥k. In this paper we derive upper bounds for the l2 and l2,∞ distances between the…

随机考虑集多项响应模型的可扩展估计AI 解读

A common assumption in the fitting of unordered multinomial response models for $J$ mutually exclusive categories is that the responses arise from the same set of $J$ categories across subjects. However, when responses measure a choice made by the subject, it is more appropriate to condition the distribution of multinomial responses on a subject-specific consideration set, drawn from the power set of $\{1,2,\ldots,J\}$. This leads to a mixture of multinomial response models…

估计警员武力升级倾向的条件有序刻板模型AI 解读

This article introduces a conditional ordinal stereotype model for estimating a police officer’s latent propensity to escalate to higher-severity force options during an encounter. Propensity to escalate is the likelihood of selecting a more serious force category than peer officers confronting the same circumstances, not necessarily implying that such force is excessive or contrary to policy. The associated conditional likelihood depends solely on data from the times and…

最大稳定分布的主成分分析AI 解读

Principal component analysis (PCA) is one of the most popular dimension reduction techniques in statistics and is especially powerful when a multivariate distribution is concentrated near a lower-dimensional subspace. Multivariate extreme value distributions have turned out to provide challenges for the application of PCA since their constraint support impedes the detection of lower-dimensional structures and heavy-tails can imply that second moments do not exist, thereby…

贝叶斯非参数准似然AI 解读

A recent trend in Bayesian research has been revisiting generalizations of the likelihood that enable Bayesian inference without requiring the specification of a data generating mechanism. This article focuses on a Bayesian nonparametric extension of Wedderburn’s quasi-likelihood, using Bayesian additive regression trees to model the mean function. Here, the analyst posits only a structural relationship between the mean and variance of the outcome. We show that this approach…

未观测混杂的平均强度敏感性分析AI 解读

Summary Sensitivity analysis for the unconfoundedness assumption is crucial in observational studies. For this purpose, the marginal sensitivity model has gained popularity in recent years owing to its good interpretability and mathematical properties. However, most existing models only consider a worst-case parameter that bounds the logit difference between the observed-data and full-data propensity scores, which may not fully capture the extent of unmeasured confounding.…

稀疏删失数据的函数型主成分分析AI 解读

Summary Functional principal component analysis is a key tool in the study of functional data, driving both exploratory analyses and feature construction for use in formal modelling and testing procedures. However, existing methods do not apply when functional observations are censored; for example, when the measurement instrument only supports recordings within a prespecified interval, thereby truncating values outside this range to the nearest boundary. A naïve application…

连续时变处理下边际结构模型的非参数有效估计AI 解读

Summary Marginal structural models are a popular method for estimating causal effects in the presence of time-varying exposures. In spite of their popularity, no scalable nonparametric estimator exists for marginal structural models with multi-valued or continuous time-varying treatments. In this paper, we combine flexible, data-adaptive regression methods, including ensemble learning techniques, with recent developments in semiparametric efficiency theory for longitudinal…

叠加点过程的 Palm 分布及其统计推断AI 解读

Abstract Palm distributions play a central role in the study of point processes and their associated summary statistics. In this work, we characterize the Palm distributions of the superposition of independent point processes, establishing a simple mixture representation depending on the point processes’ Palm distributions and moment measures. We explore two statistical applications enabled by our main result. First, we consider minimum contrast estimation for corrupted…

节点归属随时间变化的异配随机块模型动态聚类AI 解读

Summary We consider a time-ordered sequence of networks stemming from stochastic block models in which nodes gradually change their membership over time, and no network at any single time-point contains sufficient signal strength to recover its community structure. To estimate the time-varying community structure, we develop the kernel-debiased sum of squares method that performs spectral clustering after a debiased sum-of-squared aggregation of adjacency matrices. Our…

多处理与正值性违背下的因果参数比较AI 解读

Summary Comparing outcomes across treatments is essential in medicine and public policy. To do so, researchers typically estimate a set of parameters, possibly counterfactual, each targeting adifferent treatment. Treatment-specific means are commonly used, but their identification requires a positivity assumption: every subject has a nonzero probability of receiving each treatment. This assumption is often implausible, especially when treatment can take many values. Causal…
