函数型时间序列的周期性检验AI 解读

We derive several tests for the presence of a periodic component in a time series of functions. We consider both the traditional setting in which the periodic functional signal is contaminated by functional white noise, and a more general setting of a weakly dependent contaminating process. Several forms of the periodic component are considered. Our tests are motivated by the likelihood principle and fall into two broad categories, which we term multivariate and fully…

自相关稳健检验的尺寸控制AI 解读

Autocorrelation robust tests are notorious for suffering from size distortions and power problems. We investigate under which conditions the size of autocorrelation robust tests can be controlled by an appropriate choice of critical value.

ArCo：高维面板时间序列的人工反事实方法AI 解读

We consider a new, flexible and easy-to-implement method to estimate thecausal effects of an intervention on a single treated unit when a control group is not available and which nests previous proposals in the literature. It is a two-step methodology where in the first stage, a counterfactual is estimated based on a large-dimensional set of variables from a pool of untreated units by means of shrinkage methods, such as the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator…

单位根与协整的综合型检验AI 解读

This paper proposes a new portmanteau-type statistic by combining several lags of the sample autocorrelations to test for the presence of a unit-root of an autoregressive model. The proposed method is nonparametric in nature, which is model free and easy to implement. It avoids modeling the fitted residuals and does not require estimation of nuisance parameters, as commonly done in the augmented Dickey–Fuller or Phillips–Perron procedure. Asymptotic properties of the test…

用自回归条件Fréchet模型刻画极大值AI 解读

This paper introduces a novel dynamic generalized extreme value (GEV) framework for modeling the time-varying behavior of maxima in financial time series. Specifically, an autoregressive conditional Fréchet (AcF) model is proposed in which the maxima are modeled by a Fréchet distribution with time-varying scale parameter (volatility) and shape parameter (tail index) conditioned on past information. The AcF provides a direct and accurate modeling of the time-varying behavior…

非线性协整回归的模型检验AI 解读

Using the marked empirical processes, this paper develops a test of parametric specification in a nonlinear cointegrating regression model. Unlike the kernel-smoothed U-statistic considered in Gao et al. (2009) and Wang and Phillips (2012), our new test statistic avoids the use of bandwidth, which has some advantages for practitioners. Simulations and a real data example show that our new test has a good finite sample performance. Other contributions of this paper are to…

异乡的家？外国需求与伦敦房价AI 解读

Identifying the effects of “flights to safety” on asset prices using pure time-series methods is difficult because crises are infrequent. We develop a new cross-sectional identification approach, motivated by the insight that investors may differ in their “preferred habitats” within a broad asset class. We apply the method to the question of whether foreign capital is responsible for residential real estate price movements in global cities such as London and New York,…

非参数随机波动率建模AI 解读

We provide nonparametric methods for stochastic volatility modeling. Our methods allow for the joint evaluation of return and volatility dynamics with nonlinear drift and diffusion functions, nonlinear leverage effects, and jumps in returns and volatility with possibly state-dependent jump intensities, among other features. In the first stage, we identify spot volatility by virtue of jump-robust nonparametric estimates. Using observed prices and estimated spot volatilities,…

一类 GARCH 模型中波动率的重新归一化AI 解读

This paper studies the weak convergence of renorming volatilities in a family of GARCH(1,1) models from a functional point of view. After suitable renormalization, it is shown that the limiting distribution is a geometric Brownian motion when the associated top Lyapunov exponent γ > 0 and is an exponential functional of the maximum process of a Brownian motion when γ = 0. This indicates that the volatility of the GARCH(1,1)-type model has a completely different random…

面板动态联立方程模型的刀切工具变量估计AI 解读

We consider the method of moments estimation of a structural equation in a panel dynamic simultaneous equations model under different sample size combinations of cross-sectional dimension, N , and time series dimension, T . Two types of linear transformation to remove the individual-specific effects from the model, first difference and forward orthogonal demeaning, are considered. We show that the Alvarez and Arellano (2003) type GMM estimator under both transformations is…

具有有限方差的平稳整合 ARCH(∞) 与 AR(∞) 过程AI 解读

We prove the long standing conjecture of Ding and Granger (1996) about the existence of a stationary Long Memory ARCH model with finite fourth moment. This result follows from the necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of covariance stationary integrated AR(∞), ARCH(∞), and FIGARCH models obtained in the present article. We also prove that such processes always have long memory.

条件异方差时间序列模型的混合分位数回归估计AI 解读

Summary Estimating conditional quantiles of financial time series is essential for risk management and many other financial applications. For time series models with conditional heteroscedasticity, although it is the generalized auto-regressive conditional heteroscedastic (GARCH) model that has the greatest popularity, quantile regression for this model usually gives rise to non-smooth non-convex optimization which may hinder its practical feasibility. The paper proposes an…

基于MCMC输出的模型设定检验AI 解读

Two test statistics are proposed to determine model specification after a model is estimated by an MCMC method. The first test is the MCMC version of IOSA test and its asymptotic null distribution is normal. The second test is motivated from the power enhancement technique of Fan et al. (2015). It combines a component (J1) that tests a null point hypothesis in an expanded model and a power enhancement component (J0) obtained from the first test. It is shown that J0 converges…

含时间变量及平稳与非平稳回归量的加性非参数模型AI 解读

This paper considers nonparametric additive models that have a deterministic time trend and both stationary and integrated variables as components. The diverse nature of the regressors caters for applications in a variety of settings. In addition, we extend the analysis to allow the stationary regressor to be instead locally stationary, and we allow the models to include a linear form of the integrated variable. Heteroscedasticity is allowed for in all models. We propose an…

考虑可靠性的已实现协方差建模与预测AI 解读

We propose a new framework for modeling and forecasting common financial risks based on (un)reliable realized covariance measures constructed from high-frequency intraday data. Our new approach explicitly incorporates the effect of measurement errors and time-varying attenuation biases into the covariance forecasts, by allowing the ex-ante predictions to respond more (less) aggressively to changes in the ex-post realized covariance measures when they are more (less)…

动态面板推断中的附带参数、初始条件与样本规模AI 解读

We use a quasi-likelihood function approach to clarify the role of initial values and the relative sample size of the cross-section dimension N and the time series dimension T on the asymptotic properties of estimators for dynamic panel data models with the presence of individual-specific effects. We show that a properly specified quasi-likelihood estimator (QMLE) that uses the Mundlak–Chamberlain approach to condition the unobserved effects and initial values on the…

线性双重自回归AI 解读

This paper proposes the linear double autoregression, a conditional heteroscedastic model with a conditional mean structure but compatible with the quantile regression. The existence of a strictly stationary solution is discussed, for which a necessary and sufficient condition is established. A doubly weighted quantile regression estimation procedure is introduced, where the first set of weights ensures the asymptotic normality of the estimator and the second set improves…

断点数量未知的大维因子模型估计AI 解读

In this paper we study the estimation of a large dimensional factor model when the factor loadings exhibit an unknown number of changes over time. We propose a novel three-step procedure to detect the breaks if any and then identify their locations. In the first step, we divide the whole time span into subintervals and fit a conventional factor model on each interval. In the second step, we apply the adaptive fused group Lasso to identify intervals containing a break. In the…

高频股票价格变动的动态离散 Copula 模型AI 解读

Summary We develop a dynamic model for the intraday dependence between discrete stock price changes. The conditional copula mass function for the integer tick‐size price changes has time‐varying parameters that are driven by the score of the predictive likelihood function. The marginal distributions are Skellam and also have score‐driven time‐varying parameters. We show that the integration steps in the copula mass function for large dimensions can be accurately approximated…

已实现网络AI 解读

Summary We introduce LASSO‐type regularization for large‐dimensional realized covariance estimators of log‐prices. The procedure consists of shrinking the off‐diagonal entries of the inverse realized covariance matrix towards zero. This technique produces covariance estimators that are positive definite and with a sparse inverse. We name the estimator realized network, since estimating a sparse inverse realized covariance matrix is equivalent to detecting the partial…

基于风险中性矩的仿射期权定价模型估计AI 解读

Summary This paper provides a novel methodology for estimating option pricing models based on risk‐neutral moments. We synthesize the distribution extracted from a panel of option prices and exploit linear relationships between risk‐neutral cumulants and latent factors within the continuous time affine stochastic volatility framework. We find that fitting the Andersen et al. ( Journal of Financial Economics , 2015, 117 (3), 558–584) option valuation model to risk‐neutral…

依赖误差下多元 ARMA 模型的诊断：标准化残差自相关方法AI 解读

In this paper, we derive the asymptotic distribution of normalized residual empirical autocovariances and autocorrelations under weak assumptions on the noise. We propose new portmanteau statistics for vector autoregressive moving average models with uncorrelated but nonindependent innovations by using a self-normalization approach. We establish the asymptotic distribution of the proposed statistics. This asymptotic distribution is quite different from the usual chi-squared…

利用状态区段的可逆跳跃 MCMC 发现恶意软件家族AI 解读

Malware is computer software that has either been designed or modified with malicious intent. Hundreds of thousands of new malware threats appear on the internet each day. This is made possible through reuse of known exploits in computer systems that have not been fully eradicated; existing pieces of malware can be trivially modified and combined to create new malware, which is unknown to anti-virus programs. Finding new software with similarities to known malware is…

过度离散的年龄—时期—队列模型AI 解读

We consider inference and forecasting for aggregate data organized in a two-way table with age and cohort as indices, but without measures of exposure. This is modeled using a Poisson likelihood with an age-period-cohort structure for the mean while allowing for over-dispersion. We propose a repetitive structure that keeps the dimension of the table fixed while increasing the latent exposure. For this, we use a class of infinitely divisible distributions which include a…
