无限阶自回归过程动态面板估计的渐近推断AI 解读

In this paper we consider the estimation of a dynamic panel autoregressive (AR) process of possibly infinite order in the presence of individual effects. We employ double asymptotics under which both the cross-sectional sample size and the length of time series tend to infinity and utilize the sieve AR approximation with its lag order increasing with the sample size. We establish the consistency and asymptotic normality of the fixed effects estimator and propose a…

信念依赖型风险厌恶与学习下的资产定价AI 解读

This paper studies equilibrium in a pure exchange economy with unobservable Markov switching growth regimes and beliefs-dependent risk aversion (BDRA). Risk aversion is stochastic and depends nonlinearly on consumption and beliefs. Equilibrium is obtained in closed form. The market price of risk, the interest rate, and the stock return volatility acquire new components tied to fluctuations in beliefs. A three-regime specification is estimated using the generalized method of…

高维协变量下点过程预测的估计AI 解读

Estimation of the intensity of a point process is considered within a nonparametric framework. The intensity measure is unknown and depends on covariates, possibly many more than the observed number of jumps. Only a single trajectory of the counting process is observed. Interest lies in estimating the intensity conditional on the covariates. The impact of the covariates is modelled by an additive model where each component can be written as a linear combination of possibly…

异方差截断回归模型的非参数识别与估计AI 解读

We consider nonparametric identification and estimation of truncated regression models with unknown conditional heteroskedasticity. The existing methods (e.g., Chen (2010, Review of Economic Studies 77, 127–153)) that ignore heteroskedasticity often result in inconsistent estimators of regression functions. In this paper, we show that both the regression and heteroskedasticity functions are identified in a location-scale setting. Based on our constructive identification…

含随机波动的时变参数VAR的贝叶斯模型比较AI 解读

Summary We develop importance sampling methods for computing two popular Bayesian model comparison criteria, namely, the marginal likelihood and the deviance information criterion (DIC) for time‐varying parameter vector autoregressions (TVP‐VARs), where both the regression coefficients and volatilities are drifting over time. The proposed estimators are based on the integrated likelihood, which are substantially more reliable than alternatives. Using US data, we find…

多方程系统共同断点的检验AI 解读

The issue addressed in this paper is that of testing for common breaks across or within equations of a multivariate system. Our framework is very general and allows integrated regressors and trends as well as stationary regressors. The null hypothesis is that breaks in different parameters occur at common locations and are separated by some positive fraction of the sample size unless they occur across different equations. Under the alternative hypothesis, the break dates…

存在零时间间隔的高频数据下积分波动率估计AI 解读

In estimating integrated volatility using high-frequency data, it is well documented that the presence of microstructure noise presents a major challenge. Recent literature has shown that the presence of multiple observations, a common feature in datasets, brings additional difficulty. In this study, we show that the preaveraging estimator is still consistent under multiple observations, and the related asymptotic distribution of the estimator is established. We also show…

在高维 VAR(1) 中生成单变量分数阶单整AI 解读

This paper shows that a large dimensional vector autoregressive model (VAR) of finite order can generate fractional integration in the marginalized univariate series. We derive high-level assumptions under which the final equation representation of a VAR(1) leads to univariate fractional white noises and verify the validity of these assumptions for two specific models.

预测回归模型中的参数不稳定性检验AI 解读

We consider tests for structural change, based on the SupF and Cramer–von-Mises type statistics of Andrews (1993) and Nyblom (1989), respectively, in the slope and/or intercept parameters of a predictive regression model where the predictors display strong persistence. The SupF type tests are motivated by alternatives where the parameters display a small number of breaks at deterministic points in the sample, while the Cramer–von-Mises alternative is one where the…

利率波动率、收益率曲线与宏观经济AI 解读

This paper provides theory and evidence that a low-dimensional term structure model can simultaneously price bonds and related options. It shows that a component of volatility risk largely unrelated to the shape of the yield curve is a determinant of expected excess returns for holding long maturity bonds. It also finds evidence for this return relationship both in the model and directly in the data through regression analysis. The paper also identifies a link between…

非线性动态时间序列的半参数超高维模型平均AI 解读

We propose two semiparametric model averaging schemes for nonlinear dynamic time series regression models with a very large number of covariates including exogenous regressors and auto-regressive lags. Our objective is to obtain more accurate estimates and forecasts of time series by using a large number of conditioning variables in a nonparametric way. In the first scheme, we introduce a kernel sure independence screening (KSIS) technique to screen out the regressors whose…

预测分布的贝叶斯非参数校准与组合AI 解读

We introduce a Bayesian approach to predictive density calibration and combination that accounts for parameter uncertainty and model set incompleteness through the use of random calibration functionals and random combination weights. Building on the work of Ranjan and Gneiting, we use infinite beta mixtures for the calibration. The proposed Bayesian nonparametric approach takes advantage of the flexibility of Dirichlet process mixtures to achieve any continuous deformation…

时间序列的无监督自归一化变点检验AI 解读

We propose a new self-normalized method for testing change points in the time series setting. Self-normalization has been celebrated for its ability to avoid direct estimation of the nuisance asymptotic variance and its flexibility of being generalized to handle quantities other than the mean. However, it was developed and mainly studied for constructing confidence intervals for quantities associated with a stationary time series, and its adaptation to change-point testing…

均值中非线性Granger因果性的度量AI 解读

We propose model-free measures for Granger causality in mean between random variables. Unlike the existing measures, ours are able to detect and quantify nonlinear causal effects. The new measures are based on nonparametric regressions and defined as logarithmic functions of restricted and unrestricted mean square forecast errors. They are easily and consistently estimated by replacing the unknown mean square forecast errors by their nonparametric kernel estimates. We derive…

时变协整关系与协整秩的贝叶斯建模AI 解读

A multivariate model that allows for both a time-varying cointegrating matrix and time-varying cointegrating rank is presented. The model addresses the issue that, in real data, the validity of a constant cointegrating relationship may be questionable. The model nests the submodels implied by alternative cointegrating matrix ranks and allows for transitions between stationarity and nonstationarity, and cointegrating and noncointegrating relationships in accordance with the…

动态期限结构模型中的风险价格约束AI 解读

Restrictions on the risk-pricing in dynamic term structure models (DTSMs) tighten the link between cross-sectional and time-series variation of interest rates, and make absence of arbitrage useful for inference about expectations. This article presents a new econometric framework for estimation of affine Gaussian DTSMs under restrictions on risk prices, which addresses the issues of a large model space and of model uncertainty using a Bayesian approach. A simulation study…

面板单位根检验中 GLS 去均值的作用AI 解读

One of the most well-known facts about unit root testing in time series is that the Dickey–Fuller (DF) test based on ordinary least squares (OLS) demeaned data suffers from low power, and that the use of generalized least squares (GLS) demeaning can lead to substantial power gains. Of course, this development has not gone unnoticed in the panel unit root literature. However, while the potential of using GLS demeaning is widely recognized, oddly enough, there are still no…

美国不确定性冲击传导的变化AI 解读

This article investigates if the impact of uncertainty shocks on the U.S. economy has changed over time. To this end, we develop an extended factor augmented vector autoregression (VAR) model that simultaneously allows the estimation of a measure of uncertainty and its time-varying impact on a range of variables. We find that the impact of uncertainty shocks on real activity and financial variables has declined systematically over time. In contrast, the response of inflation…

可能不可逆与非因果 ARMA 模型的频域最小距离推断AI 解读

This article introduces frequency domain minimum distance procedures for performing inference in general, possibly non causal and/or noninvertible, autoregressive moving average (ARMA) models. We use information from higher order moments to achieve identification on the location of the roots of the AR and MA polynomials for non-Gaussian time series. We propose a minimum distance estimator that optimally combines the information contained in second, third, and fourth moments.…

基于含噪高频观测的高维协方差矩阵谱分布推断AI 解读

In practice, observations are often contaminated by noise, making the resulting sample covariance matrix a signal-plus-noise sample covariance matrix. Aiming to make inferences about the spectral distribution of the population covariance matrix under such a situation, we establish an asymptotic relationship that describes how the limiting spectral distribution of (signal) sample covariance matrices depends on that of signal-plus-noise-type sample covariance matrices. As an…

利用高频数据进行预测准确性的渐近推断AI 解读

This paper provides a general framework that enables many existing inference methods for predictive accuracy to be used in applications that involve forecasts of latent target variables. Such applications include the forecasting of volatility, correlation, beta, quadratic variation, jump variation, and other functionals of an underlying continuous-time process. We provide primitive conditions under which a “negligibility” result holds, and thus the asymptotic size of…

贝叶斯非参数向量自回归模型AI 解读

Vector autoregressive (VAR) models are the main work-horse models for macroeconomic forecasting, and provide a framework for the analysis of complex dynamics that are present between macroeconomic variables. Whether a classical or a Bayesian approach is adopted, most VAR models are linear with Gaussian innovations. This can limit the model’s ability to explain the relationships in macroeconomic series. We propose a nonparametric VAR model that allows for nonlinearity in the…

含固定效应的函数系数空间自回归面板模型：估计与推断AI 解读

This paper develops an innovative way of estimating a functional-coefficient spatial autoregressive panel data model with unobserved individual effects which can accommodate (multiple) time-invariant regressors with a large number of cross-sectional units and a finite time periods. Our proposed methodology removes unobserved fixed effects from the model by transforming the latter into a semiparametric additive model, however avoids using backfitting technique. We derive the…
