高维矩阵值时间序列的约束因子模型AI 解读

High-dimensional matrix-variate time series data are becoming widely available in many scientific fields, such as economics, biology, and meteorology. To achieve significant dimension reduction while preserving the intrinsic matrix structure and temporal dynamics in such data, Wang, Liu, and Chen proposed a matrix factor model, that is, shown to be able to provide effective analysis. In this article, we establish a general framework for incorporating domain and prior…

采用异方差反演 Copula 的实时宏观经济预测AI 解读

There is a growing interest in allowing for asymmetry in the density forecasts of macroeconomic variables. In multivariate time series, this can be achieved with a copula model, where both serial and cross-sectional dependence is captured by a copula function, and the margins are nonparametric. Yet most existing copulas cannot capture heteroscedasticity well, which is a feature of many economic and financial time series. To do so, we propose a new copula created by the…

用于分析金融泡沫与崩盘的双问题调查指标AI 解读

This article proposes a new double-question survey whereby an individual is presented with two sets of questions; one on beliefs about current asset values and another on price expectations. A theoretical asset pricing model with heterogeneous agents is advanced and the existence of a negative relationship between price expectations and asset valuations is established, and is then tested using survey results on equity, gold, and house prices. Leading indicators of bubbles…

金融时间序列尾部依赖结构差异的检测AI 解读

An accurate assessment of tail inequalities and tail asymmetries of financial returns is key for risk management and portfolio allocation. We propose a new test procedure for detecting the full extent of such structural differences in the dependence of bivariate extreme returns. We decompose the testing problem into piecewise multiple comparisons of Cramér–von Mises distances of tail copulas. In this way, tail regions that cause differences in extreme dependence can be…

文字成为新数字：基于新闻的商业周期同步指数AI 解读

I construct a daily business cycle index based on quarterly GDP growth and textual information contained in a daily business newspaper. The newspaper data are decomposed into time series representing news topics, while the business cycle index is estimated using the topics and a time-varying dynamic factor model where dynamic sparsity is enforced upon the factor loadings using a latent threshold mechanism. The resulting index classifies the phases of the business cycle with…

高斯 Copula 是否合适？AI 解读

We derive computationally simple and intuitive expressions for score tests of Gaussian copulas against generalized hyperbolic alternatives, including symmetric and asymmetric Student t, and many other examples. We decompose our tests into third and fourth moment components, and obtain one-sided Likelihood Ratio analogs, whose standard asymptotic distribution we provide. Our Monte Carlo exercises confirm the reliable size of parametric bootstrap versions of our tests, and…

多元波动模型条件相关结构的变点检测AI 解读

We propose semiparametric CUSUM tests to detect a change-point in the correlation structures of nonlinear multivariate models with dynamically evolving volatilities. The asymptotic distributions of the proposed statistics are derived under mild conditions. We discuss the applicability of our method to the most often used models, including constant conditional correlation (CCC), dynamic conditional correlation (DCC), BEKK, corrected DCC, and factor models. Our simulations…

马尔可夫切换三遍回归滤波器AI 解读

We introduce a new approach for the estimation of high-dimensional factor models with regime-switching factor loadings by extending the linear three-pass regression filter to settings where parameters can vary according to Markov processes. The new method, denoted as Markov-switching three-pass regression filter (MS-3PRF), is suitable for datasets with large cross-sectional dimensions, since estimation and inference are straightforward, as opposed to existing…

GARCH 模型中遗漏乘法型长期成分的检验AI 解读

We consider the problem of testing for an omitted multiplicative long-term component in GARCH-type models. Under the alternative, there is a two-component model with a short-term GARCH component that fluctuates around a smoothly time-varying long-term component which is driven by the dynamics of an explanatory variable. We suggest a Lagrange multiplier statistic for testing the null hypothesis that the variable has no explanatory power. We derive the asymptotic theory for…

连续函数 Banach 空间中的函数型数据分析AI 解读

Functional data analysis is typically conducted within the $L^{2}$-Hilbert space framework. There is by now a fully developed statistical toolbox allowing for the principled application of the functional data machinery to real-world problems, often based on dimension reduction techniques such as functional principal component analysis. At the same time, there have recently been a number of publications that sidestep dimension reduction steps and focus on a fully functional $L^{2}$…

抛物型随机偏微分方程的高频分析AI 解读

We consider the problem of estimating stochastic volatility for a class of second-order parabolic stochastic PDEs. Assuming that the solution is observed at high temporal frequency, we use limit theorems for multipower variations and related functionals to construct consistent nonparametric estimators and asymptotic confidence bounds for the integrated volatility process. As a byproduct of our analysis, we also obtain feasible estimators for the regularity of the spatial…

β 混合厚尾时间序列中 Lasso 的理论保证AI 解读

Many theoretical results for lasso require the samples to be i.i.d. Recent work has provided guarantees for lasso assuming that the time series is generated by a sparse Vector Autoregressive (VAR) model with Gaussian innovations. Proofs of these results rely critically on the fact that the true data generating mechanism (DGM) is a finite-order Gaussian VAR. This assumption is quite brittle: linear transformations, including selecting a subset of variables, can lead to the…

Hurst 函数估计AI 解读

This paper considers a wide range of issues concerning the estimation of the Hurst function of a multifractional Brownian motion when the process is observed on a regular grid. A theoretical lower bound for the minimax risk of this inference problem is established for a wide class of smooth Hurst functions. We also propose a new nonparametric estimator and show that it is rate optimal. Implementation issues of the estimator including how to overcome the presence of a…

时变系数协整回归的核方法推断AI 解读

This paper studies nonlinear cointegrating models with time-varying coefficients and multiple nonstationary regressors using classic kernel smoothing methods to estimate the coefficient functions. Extending earlier work on nonstationary kernel regression to take account of practical features of the data, we allow the regressors to be cointegrated and to embody a mixture of stochastic and deterministic trends, complications which result in asymptotic degeneracy of the…

大规模社会网络的多元空间自回归模型AI 解读

The rapid growth of social network platforms generates a large amount of social network data, where multivariate responses are frequently collected from users. To statistically model such type of data, the multivariate spatial autoregressive (MSAR) model is studied. To estimate the model, the quasi maximum likelihood estimator (QMLE) is obtained under certain technical conditions. However, it is found that the computational cost of QMLE is expensive. To fix this problem, a…

分数阶单整过程错设模型的估计问题AI 解读

This short paper provides a comprehensive set of new theoretical results on the impact of mis-specifying the short run dynamics in fractionally integrated processes. We show that four alternative parametric estimators – frequency domain maximum likelihood, Whittle, time domain maximum likelihood and conditional sum of squares – converge to the same pseudo-true value under common mis-specification, and that they possess a common asymptotic distribution. The results are…

高频采样下的平稳性检验AI 解读

The high frequency behavior of the KPSS test, which is most commonly used to test for stationarity, is analyzed in a continuous time framework. Our asymptotics show that the test has no discriminatory power at high frequency: It either always rejects stationarity or has no nontrivial power at high frequency. The test becomes valid at high frequency only when the bandwidth of its long-run variance estimate is chosen suitably in our framework. We also analyze the…

利用机器学习估计永久价格冲击AI 解读

In this paper, we show that vector auto-regression (VAR) models, which are commonly used to estimate permanent price impact, are misspecified and can produce conflicting and incorrect inferences when the price impact function is nonlinear. We propose an alternative method to estimate permanent price impact by modifying a reinforcement learning (RL) framework. Our approach assumes the data is stationary and Markov, but is otherwise unrestrictive. We obtain empirical estimates…

相依微观结构噪声与高频数据的积分波动率估计AI 解读

In this paper, we develop econometric tools to analyze the integrated volatility (IV) of the efficient price and the dynamic properties of microstructure noise in high-frequency data under general dependent noise. We first develop consistent estimators of the variance and autocovariances of noise using a variant of realized volatility. Next, we employ these estimators to adapt the pre-averaging method and derive consistent estimators of the IV, which converge stably to a…

波动率泛函的时不变限制：有效估计与设定检验AI 解读

This paper studies the estimation and inference problems of time-invariant restrictions on certain known functions of the stochastic volatility process. We first develop a more efficient GMM estimator and derive the efficiency bound under such restrictions. Then we construct an integrated Hausman-type test by summing up the squared differences between this more efficient estimator and the unrestricted estimator computed at different time points. Although less efficient under…

自回归模型中脉冲响应推断的一致有效性AI 解读

Existing proofs of the asymptotic validity of conventional methods of impulse response inference based on higher-order autoregressions are pointwise only. In this paper, we establish the uniform asymptotic validity of conventional asymptotic and bootstrap inference about individual impulse responses and vectors of impulse responses when the horizon is fixed with respect to the sample size. For inference about vectors of impulse responses based on Wald test statistics to be…

含全局幂律趋势与局部非参数趋势的半参数模型推断AI 解读

We consider a model with both a parametric global trend and a nonparametric local trend. This model may be of interest in a number of applications in economics, finance, ecology, and geology. We first propose two hypothesis tests to detect whether two nested special cases are appropriate. For the case where both null hypotheses are rejected, we propose an estimation method to capture certain aspects of the time trend. We establish consistency and some distribution theory in…

含外生回归变量的混合因果—非因果自回归模型AI 解读

Summary Mixed causal–noncausal autoregressive (MAR) models have been proposed to model time series exhibiting nonlinear dynamics. Possible exogenous regressors are typically substituted into the error term to maintain the MAR structure of the dependent variable. We introduce a representation including these covariates called MARX to study their direct impact. The asymptotic distribution of the MARX parameters is derived for a class of non‐Gaussian densities. For a Student…

异质动态面板分位数回归模型的共同相关效应估计AI 解读

Summary This paper proposes a quantile regression estimator for a heterogeneous panel model with lagged dependent variables and interactive effects. The paper adopts the Common Correlated Effects (CCE) approach proposed in the literature and demonstrates that the extension to the estimation of dynamic quantile regression models is feasible under similar conditions to the ones used in the literature. The new quantile regression estimator is shown to be consistent and its…
