近历元依赖重尾时间序列的极端局部线性分位数回归AI 解读

This paper develops a data-driven inference procedure for extreme analysis of data with near epoch dependence (NED), a condition less restrictive than traditional dependence structures like α-mixing, making it particularly useful for analyzing heavy-tailed time series data. To capture nonlinear data structures, we propose a new framework that combines local linear quantile regression with extreme value theory. We first study the asymptotic properties of the local-linear…

持久时间序列中随机周期的估计AI 解读

A number of economic, financial, and climatic time series exhibit persistent cycles which are characterized by time-dependence patterns and peaks in the spectrum. In this article, we introduce a class of semiparametric cyclical–memory processes which enable the modeling of random cyclical patterns in stationary and non-stationary time series. We develop a theoretical background and asymptotic estimation theory for the frequency of a cycle represented by the location of a…

非参数趋势曲线的多尺度比较AI 解读

We develop new econometric methods for the comparison of nonparametric time trends. In many applications, practitioners are interested in examining the trending behaviour of multiple time series. Among other things, they would like to know which time series have different trends and in which time intervals the differences occur. We design a multiscale test to formally approach these questions. Specifically, we develop a test which allows to make rigorous confidence…

面板双重差分估计的简单变换方法AI 解读

In the case of panel data with staggered interventions, we propose a simple time-series transformation that can be combined with various treatment effect estimators. The transformation is at the unit level, and simply requires computing the average outcome prior to an intervention, subtracting it from a post-treatment outcome, and then carefully selecting the control units in each time period. We show that under no anticipation and parallel trends assumptions, the cohort…

利用高阶多元累积量估计弱因子AI 解读

When factors are weak, covariance-based factor analysis methods tend to exhibit poor performance. To address this issue in the case of non-Gaussian data, we propose a new method called Higher-order multi-cumulant Factor Analysis (HFA). HFA estimates factors and factor loadings via the eigenvalue decomposition of the product of a higher-order multi-cumulant matrix and its transpose. We derive the asymptotic properties of HFA under a weak factor model where non-Gaussianity…

平滑结构变化下 FAVAR 模型的时变模型平均AI 解读

Factor-augmented vector autoregressive (FAVAR) models serve as a powerful tool for forecasting economic and financial variables, particularly in environments with a large number of predictors. In this study, we propose a time-varying model-averaging method for FAVAR (TVMA-FAVAR) that accommodates smooth structural changes. To estimate the optimal time-varying combination weights, we develop a local leave-one-out cross-validation (LLOCV) criterion that is asymptotically…

区间值时间序列的正则化建模AI 解读

By treating intervals as inseparable sets, this paper proposes sparse machine learning regressions for high-dimensional interval-valued time series. With LASSO or adaptive LASSO techniques, we develop a penalized minimum distance estimation method, which covers point-based estimators are special cases. We establish the consistency and oracle properties of the proposed penalized estimator, regardless of whether the number of predictors grows slower or faster than the sample…

基于因子模型的高维降秩时间序列估计AI 解读

High-dimensional time series are very common in reality. Analyzing each series separately may not be a good strategy, as it may miss some important information and result in a less optimal outcome. Even worse, in some cases, it may not even provide an answer to the question of interest. Reduced-rank model is an important tool for joint analysis of high-dimensional multiple-response time series. In this paper, we develop a new and powerful method for estimating the…

阈值空间由直线划分的广义多元阈值自回归模型AI 解读

We consider a k-dimensional multiple-regime vector threshold autoregressive model, in which the regime-switching mechanism is governed by a bivariate threshold variable. Specifically, the regimes are induced by a partition of the threshold space by an unknown number of threshold lines. Within each regime, the process follows a specific vector autoregressive (VAR) model. We formulate the model selection and parameter estimation into a minimization problem based on the Minimum…

债券与股票共同定价的因子动物园AI 解读

We analyze 18 quadrillion models for the joint pricing of corporate bond and stock returns. Strikingly, we find that equity and nontradable factors alone suffice to explain corporate bond risk premia once their Treasury term structure risk is accounted for, rendering the extensive bond factor literature largely redundant for this purpose. While only a handful of factors, behavioral and nontradable, are likely robust sources of priced risk, the true latent stochastic discount…

不预设平稳性的 GARCH(1,1) 过程变化检测AI 解读

This article develops a new test to detect changes in generalized autoregressive conditionally heteroscedastic (GARCH(1,1)) processes without imposing a stationary assumption. Specifically, the procedure tests the null hypothesis of a GARCH process with constant parameters, either in (strictly) stationary or explosive regimes, against the alternative hypothesis of parameter changes. We derive the limiting distribution of the test statistics and establish their asymptotic…

这个冲击不同：误设双向固定效应面板回归的估计与推断AI 解读

We investigate the properties of the linear two-way fixed effects (FE) estimator for panel data when the underlying data generating process (DGP) does not have a linear parametric structure. The FE estimator is consistent for some pseudo-true value and we characterize the corresponding asymptotic distribution. We show that the rate of convergence is determined by the degree of model misspecification, and that the asymptotic distribution can be non-normal. We propose a novel…

时间序列不确定性量化的高阶近似AI 解读

For time series with high temporal correlation, the empirical process converges rather slowly to its limiting distribution. Many statistics in change-point analysis, goodness-of-fit testing, and uncertainty quantification admit a representation as functionals of the empirical process and therefore inherit its slow convergence. As a result, inference based on the asymptotic distribution of those quantities is significantly affected by relatively small sample sizes. We assess…

基于保序回归的结构变化检验AI 解读

Detecting structural changes in economic relationships has been a longstanding challenge in econometrics. Most of the literature on structural breaks has considered abrupt structural breaks. Existing tests for detecting smooth structural change typically rely on kernel estimation. In this article, we introduce a novel tuning-parameter-free test that minimizes a criterion function over all possible nondecreasing or nonincreasing structural change functions. This test is…

以倾向得分校准改善双重／去偏机器学习的平均处理效应有限样本估计AI 解读

ABSTRACT Double/debiased machine learning (DML) uses for estimating an average treatment effect (ATE) a double‐robust score function that relies on the prediction of nuisance functions, such as the propensity score, which is the probability of treatment assignment given covariates. Estimators relying on double‐robust score functions are highly sensitive to errors in propensity score predictions. Machine learning algorithms have been found to produce models that often…

宏观经济新闻冲击与意外冲击的估计AI 解读

ABSTRACT A common VAR approach is to identify responses to TFP news shocks by maximizing the variance share of TFP over a long horizon. We find that these TFP max share estimators tend to be biased in large samples when applied to data generated from DSGE models with shock processes that match TFP moments in the data, especially in the presence of TFP measurement error. We propose an alternative max share news estimator that reduces this bias and the RMSE of the impulse…

因子增强回归预测准确性的稳健检验：新欧元区 EA-MD-QD 数据集应用AI 解读

ABSTRACT We present four novel tests of equal predictive accuracy and encompassing á Pitarakis (2023, 2025) for factor‐augmented regressions. Factors are estimated using cross‐section averages (CAs) of grouped series and our theoretical findings are empirically relevant: asymptotic normality, robustness to an overspecification of the number of factors, tractability of different degrees of predictor persistence, and invariance to the location of structural breaks in the…

可靠性随时间变化的高频工具变量：理解宏观经济识别AI 解读

ABSTRACT The effects of monetary policy shocks are regularly estimated using high‐frequency surprises in asset prices around central bank meetings as an instrument. These studies, insofar as they explicitly model the relationship between instrument and structural shock, assume a constant relationship between the instrument and the monetary policy shock. By allowing for time variation in this relationship, we show that only a few distinct periods are informative about…

高频信息组合优化中重审 EWMA：比较评估AI 解读

ABSTRACT This paper compares the statistical and economic performance of state‐of‐the‐art high‐frequency (HF) based multivariate volatility models with a simpler, widely used alternative, the Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (EWMA) filter. Using over two decades of 100 U.S. stock returns (2002–2023), we assess model performance through a Global Minimum Variance portfolio optimization exercise, with and without short‐selling restrictions across multiple forecast…

通过稀疏性识别因子扩展 VAR 模型AI 解读

This paper introduces a regularized factor-augmented vector autoregressive (RFAVAR) model which incorporates sparsity in the factor loadings. Within this framework, the factors can load on a subset of variables, thereby enabling factor identification and enhancing their economic interpretation. The proposed RFAVAR model allows to investigate the effects of structural shocks on economically interpretable factors and on all observed time series included in the model. We prove…

自回归逆Wishart多元随机波动模型及其因子扩展AI 解读

ABSTRACT Despite its conceptual appeal, the autoregressive inverse‐Wishart (AIW) multivariate stochastic volatility model has been hindered by inefficient sampling methods. The existing samplers for the latent covariance matrix severely suffer from the curse of dimensionality and only work when the dimension is very low. In this paper, we introduce a new proposal for the latent covariance matrix in the AIW model, which demonstrates far better scalability. We introduce…

欧元区及其成员国大型数据集与共同货币政策的动态效应AI 解读

ABSTRACT We introduce EA‐MD‐QD, a new publicly available dataset comprising 1136 macroeconomic time series for the euro area (EA) and its ten largest member countries observed at monthly or quarterly frequency. Since January 2024, EA‐MD‐QD has been updated monthly and continuously revised, providing a valuable resource for policy analysis in the EA. Using EA‐MD‐QD, we study country‐specific impulse responses to an EA‐wide monetary policy shock. Results reveal moderate yet…

函数型时间序列共同趋势的统计推断AI 解读

We study statistical inference on unit roots and cointegration for time series in a Hilbert space. We develop statistical inference on the number of common stochastic trends embedded in the time series, that is, the dimension of the nonstationary subspace. We also consider tests of hypotheses on the nonstationary and stationary subspaces themselves. The Hilbert space can be of an arbitrarily large dimension, and our methods remain asymptotically valid even when the time…

通过分而治之实现可扩展的时间序列贝叶斯推断AI 解读

Bayesian computation often scales poorly with increasing data size, motivating developments such as divide-and-conquer approaches for scalable inference. These methods partition the data into subsets, perform parallel inference on each subset, and aggregate the results into a single posterior. Appealing theoretical properties and practical performance have been demonstrated for independent data; however, methods for dependent data remain challenging. Existing methods rely on…
