基于分位数的平滑转换风险价值估计AI 解读

Summary Value at risk models are concerned with the estimation of conditional quantiles of a time series. Formally, these quantities are a function of conditional volatility and the respective quantile of the innovation distribution. The former is often subject to asymmetric dynamic behaviour, e.g., with respect to past shocks. In this paper, we propose a model in which conditional quantiles follow a generalised autoregressive process governed by two parameter regimes with…

商业与住宅抵押贷款违约：带脆弱性因子的空间依赖AI 解读

We investigate the spatial dependence between commercial and residential mortgage defaults. A new class of observation-driven frailty factor models is introduced to do so. The idea of dynamic parameters embedded in the class of GAS models is utilized to estimate dynamic models of default risk with potentially multiple factors which are driven by stratified grouping of large panels of mortgage loan records. The score dynamics in the models is driven by so-called generalized…

通过核范数正则化估计高维广义迹回归AI 解读

We study the generalized trace regression with a near low-rank regression coefficient matrix, which extends notion of sparsity for regression coefficient vectors. Specifically, given a matrix covariate X, the probability density function of the response Y is f(Y|X)=c(Y)exp(ϕ−1−Yη∗+b(η∗)), where η∗=tr(Θ∗TX). This model accommodates various types of responses and embraces many important problem setups such as reduced-rank regression, matrix regression that accommodates a panel…

贝叶斯非参数稀疏向量自回归模型AI 解读

High dimensional vector autoregressive (VAR) models require a large number of parameters to be estimated and may suffer of inferential problems. We propose a new Bayesian nonparametric (BNP) Lasso prior (BNP-Lasso) for high-dimensional VAR models that can improve estimation efficiency and prediction accuracy. Our hierarchical prior overcomes overparametrization and overfitting issues by clustering the VAR coefficients into groups and by shrinking the coefficients of each…

极端典型相关与高维协整分析AI 解读

We prove that the extreme squared sample canonical correlations between a random walk and its own innovations almost surely converge to the upper and lower boundaries of the support of the Wachter distribution when the sample size and the dimensionality go to infinity proportionally. This result is used to derive previously unknown analytic expressions for the Bartlett-type correction coefficients for Johansen’s trace and maximum eigenvalue tests in a high-dimensional…

高维多变量已实现波动率估计AI 解读

We provide a new factor-based estimator of the realized covolatility matrix, applicable in situations when the number of assets is large and the high-frequency data are contaminated with microstructure noises. Our estimator relies on the assumption of a factor structure for the noise component, separate from the latent systematic risk factors that characterize the cross-sectional variation in the frictionless returns. The new estimator provides theoretically more efficient…

利用大数据监测银行体系关联性AI 解读

In this paper, we propose a procedure that generates measures of connectedness between individual firms and for the system as a whole based on information observed only at the firm level; i.e., no explicit linkages are observed. We apply our procedure to large U.S. bank holding companies. We show how bank outcome variables of interest can be decomposed, including with mixed-frequency models, for network analysis to measure connectedness across firms. Network analysis of…

含随机波动率与非共轭先验的大型贝叶斯向量自回归AI 解读

Recent research has shown that a reliable vector autoregression (VAR) for forecasting and structural analysis of macroeconomic data requires a large set of variables and modeling time variation in their volatilities. Yet, there are no papers that provide a general solution for combining these features, due to computational complexity. Moreover, homoskedastic Bayesian VARs for large data sets so far restrict substantially the allowed prior distributions on the parameters. In…

高维向量自回归的自适应层级先验AI 解读

This paper proposes a simulation-free estimation algorithm for vector autoregressions (VARs) that allows fast approximate calculation of marginal parameter posterior distributions. We apply the algorithm to derive analytical expressions for independent VAR priors that admit a hierarchical representation and which would typically require computationally intensive posterior simulation methods. The benefits of the new algorithm are explored using three quantitative exercises.…

时变参数向量自回归的准贝叶斯局部似然方法AI 解读

The paper establishes a quasi-Bayesian local likelihood (QBLL) estimation methodology for a multivariate model with time varying parameters. The asymptotic validity of the resulting quasi-posterior distributions of the drifting parameters is proven in general and, in the special case of a Gaussian VAR model, a closed form time varying Normal-Wishart expression for the quasi-posterior distribution of the parameters is provided. In addition, this paper develops several Gibbs…

多个条件变量下大型动态协方差矩阵的半参数估计新方法AI 解读

This paper studies the estimation of large dynamic covariance matrices with multiple conditioning variables. We introduce an easy-to-implement semiparametric method to estimate each entry of the covariance matrix via model averaging marginal regression, and then apply a shrinkage technique to obtain the dynamic covariance matrix estimation. Under some regularity conditions, we derive the asymptotic properties for the proposed estimators including the uniform consistency with…

动态预测计量建模中的大数据AI 解读

The modern economic environment is awash in Big Data. The business models of many of today’s largest and most innovative firms, for example, are intimately connected to data collection and processing. Closely related, all of science is now similarly awash in Big Data, due to massive advances in data capture and storage technology, typically in conjunction with the internet.1 Time-series econometrics is no exception, and the time-series community is beginning to confront Big…

存在结构突变的面板模型中的变量选择AI 解读

We develop a Bayesian approach that performs variable selection in panel regression models affected by breaks. Our approach enables deactivation of pervasive regressors and activation of weak regressors for short periods (regimes). We establish theoretical results on the concentration properties of the posterior as well as the rate of convergence for estimating the break dates. Our methodology is demonstrated in simulations and in an empirical application to firms’ choice of…

网络分位数自回归AI 解读

The complex tail dependency structure in a dynamic network with a large number of nodes is an important object to study. We propose a network quantile autoregression model (NQAR), which characterizes the dynamic quantile behavior. Our NQAR model consists of a system of equations, of which we relate a response to its connected nodes and node specific characteristics in a quantile autoregression process. We show the estimation of the NQAR model and the asymptotic properties…

交易成本与模型不确定性下的大规模投资组合配置AI 解读

We theoretically and empirically study portfolio optimization under transaction costs and establish a link between turnover penalization and covariance shrinkage with the penalization governed by transaction costs. We show how the ex ante incorporation of transaction costs shifts optimal portfolios towards regularized versions of efficient allocations. The regulatory effect of transaction costs is studied in an econometric setting incorporating parameter uncertainty and…

外生不确定性与使用外部工具变量的结构向量自回归识别AI 解读

Summary We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for the identification (point‐identification) of structural vector autoregressions (SVARs) with external instruments considering the case in which r instruments are used to identify g structural shocks of interest, r ≥ g ≥ 1. Novel frequentist estimation methods are discussed by considering both a “partial shocks” identification strategy, where only g structural shocks are of interest and are instrumented, and a “full…

含内生回归变量的异质面板中的结构变化AI 解读

Summary This paper extends Pesaran's ( Econometrica , 2006, 74 , 967–1012) common correlated effects (CCE) by allowing for endogenous regressors in large heterogeneous panels with unknown common structural changes in slopes and error factor structure. Since endogenous regressors and structural breaks are often encountered in empirical studies with large panels, this extension makes Pesaran's CCE approach empirically more appealing. In addition to allowing for slope…

局部平稳过程的交叉验证AI 解读

We propose an adaptive bandwidth selector via cross validation for local M-estimators in locally stationary processes. We prove asymptotic optimality of the procedure under mild conditions on the underlying parameter curves. The results are applicable to a wide range of locally stationary processes such linear and nonlinear processes. A simulation study shows that the method works fairly well also in misspecified situations.

局部平稳性与时变 Markov 链AI 解读

A primary motivation of this contribution is to define new locally stationary Markov models for categorical or integer-valued data. For this initial purpose, we propose a new general approach for dealing with time-inhomogeneity that extends the local stationarity notion developed in the time series literature. We also introduce a probabilistic framework which is very flexible and allows us to consider a much larger class of Markov chain models on arbitrary state spaces,…

非正态误差下变换线性回归的最大似然估计AI 解读

This paper discusses the transformed linear regression with non-normal error distributions, a problem that often occurs in many areas such as economics and social sciences as well as medical studies. The linear transformation model is an important tool in survival analysis partly due to its flexibility. In particular, it includes the Cox model and the proportional odds model as special cases when the error follows the extreme value distribution and the logistic distribution,…

稀疏备择下的高维变点检测AI 解读

We consider the problem of detecting a change in mean in a sequence of high-dimensional Gaussian vectors. The change in mean may be occurring simultaneously in an unknown subset components. We propose a hypothesis test to detect the presence of a change-point and establish the detection boundary in different regimes under the assumption that the dimension tends to infinity and the length of the sequence grows with the dimension. A remarkable feature of the proposed test is…

相关误差连续时间回归模型中的最佳线性无偏估计AI 解读

In this paper, the problem of best linear unbiased estimation is investigated for continuous-time regression models. We prove several general statements concerning the explicit form of the best linear unbiased estimator (BLUE), in particular when the error process is a smooth process with one or several derivatives of the response process available for construction of the estimators. We derive the explicit form of the BLUE for many specific models including the cases of…

使用高频数据检验因子数量的秩检验AI 解读

In the literature, consistency of the estimates of the number of factors for large-dimensional factor models had been extensively studied recently. But the second-order property of the estimator has long been unsolved due to lack of limiting distribution of the estimators. In this paper, we propose a rank test of the number of factors using large panel high-frequency data contaminated with microstructure noise. The rank test is realized by forming a fixed number of…

组合 p 值检验协整回归中的多重结构突变AI 解读

We propose a multiple hypothesis testing approach to assess structural stability in cointegrating regressions. Underlying tests are constructed via a Vector Error Correction Model and generalize the reduced rank regression procedures of Hansen (2003). We generalize the likelihood ratio test proposed in Hansen (2003) to accommodate unknown break dates through the specification of several scenarios regarding the number and the location of the breaks. We define a combined…
