时间序列回归的可行广义最小二乘AI 解读

We consider GLS and OLS estimation in a linear regression model with serially correlated errors, and we provide the following contributions. First, we clarify when OLS is consistent or not. Second, we give sufficient conditions such that GLS is valid without the assumption of exogenous regressors (uncorrelated with past innovations). Third, we devise a feasible GLS procedure valid whether or not the regressors are exogenous, and which achieves a MSE close to that of the…

交互固定效应面板数据模型与（相对）小 TAI 解读

This paper studies the estimation of a linear panel data model with interactive fixed effects. A transformation is introduced which, after having been applied, renders the least squares (LS) estimator of Bai (2009) consistent and asymptotically unbiased when n is large and T is fixed. This is termed the transformed least squares (TLS) estimator. Going further, these properties are shown to also carry over to the large n, large T setting, provided T /n → 0. This contrasts…

非平稳波动环境下股票收益可预测性的实时监测AI 解读

Stock return predictability, should it exist, is likely to be episodic in nature. In order to exploit such pockets of predictability it is essential that they are rapidly detected, in real-time, as the nascent predictive regime emerges. This will typically entail the repeated (sequential) application of one-shot end-of-sample predictability statistics, updated as new data become available. Consequently, in addition to dealing with the usual inference problems caused by…

高维线性因子定价模型的 Lq 范数 alpha 检验AI 解读

We consider testing zero pricing errors in high-dimensional linear factor pricing models. Existing methods are mainly based on either an $L_2$ statistic, which is effective under dense alternatives, or an $L_\infty$ statistic, which is powerful under very sparse alternatives. To bridge these two regimes, we develop a class of $L_q$-based tests for finite $q$, including the practically useful $L_4$ and $L_6$ cases. We show that larger $q$ leads to greater sensitivity to…

高维矩阵值时间序列的时空自回归模型AI 解读

Motivated by predicting intraday trading volume curves, we consider two spatio-temporal autoregressive models for matrix time series, in which each column may represent daily trading volume curve of one asset, and each row captures synchronized 5-minute volume intervals acrossmultiple assets. While traditional matrix time series focus mainly on temporal evolution, our approach incorporates both spatial and temporal dynamics, enabling simultaneous analysis of interactions…

具有动态异质溢出的矩阵值空间自回归AI 解读

We introduce a new time-varying parameter spatial matrix autoregressive model that integrates matrix-valued time series, heterogeneous spillover effects, outlier robustness, and time-varying parameters in one unified framework. The model allows for separate dynamic spatial spillover effects across both the row and column dimensions of the matrix-valued observations. Robustness can be introduced via a matrix Student’s t distribution. The model can still be estimated…

基于离散傅里叶变换检验交互固定效应面板模型的结构变化AI 解读

We propose a discrete Fourier transform (DFT)-based test for detecting structural changes in panel data models with interactive fixed effects (IFE). When structural changes are present but ignored, the conventional asymptotic distribution of the least squares (LS) estimator of Bai (2009) may no longer provide reliable inference, and the resulting residuals contain signals of parameter instability. Our test exploits this feature by comparing the DFT of weighted residuals to…

时变可预测性的稳健推断：Sieve-IVX 方法AI 解读

Predictive regression models are often used to evaluate the predictive capability of economic fundamentals on bond and equity returns. Inferential procedures in these regressions typically employ parameter constancy or piecewise constancy in slope coefficients. Such formulations are prone to misspecification, more especially during periods of disturbance or evolution in prevailing economic and financial conditions, which can lead to size distortion and spurious evidence of…

混合平稳与非平稳变量的主成分分析AI 解读

This paper develops a procedure for uncovering the common cyclical factors that drive a mix of stationary and nonstationary variables. The method does not require knowing which variables are nonstationary or the nature of the nonstationarity. An application to the FRED-MD macroeconomic dataset demonstrates that the approach offers similar benefits to those of traditional principal component analysis with some added advantages.

动态系统性风险测度的多元推断AI 解读

This paper provides statistical inference for marginal expected shortfall (MES) and delta conditional value-at-risk (ΔCoVaR) measures, which are semiparametrically estimated by a two-step procedure in a multivariate GARCH-type framework. We establish the asymptotic properties of corresponding estimators and illustrate how the estimation uncertainty can be decomposed into dynamic univariate marginal and time-varying dependence components. Our methodology reveals good finite…

非平凡协整的检验AI 解读

Cointegration is pivotal in analyzing long-run equilibrium relationships among economic variables. Traditional cointegration models have been effective in handling mixed-order integrated variables, but they can lead to misleading conclusions from an equilibrium perspective if trend stationary observables are involved. This type of variable leads to the so-called trivial cointegration, which might falsely suggest a long-run relationship where none exists. Testing for…

双重因子结构下高维函数型时间序列的协方差函数估计AI 解读

We propose a flexible dual functional factor model for modelling high-dimensional functional time series. In this model, a high-dimensional fully functional factor structure is imposed on the observed functional processes, whereas a low-dimensional version (via series approximation) is assumed for the latent functional factors. We extend the classic principal component analysis technique for estimating a low-rank structure to the estimation of a large covariance matrix of…

无条件异方差下基于 LAD 的自适应 Bootstrap 单位根检验AI 解读

This paper studies unit root testing based on least absolute deviations (LAD) regression under unconditional heteroscedasticity. We first derive asymptotic properties of the LAD estimator under both unit root and local-to-unity settings in the presence of unconditional heteroscedasticity and weak dependence. The results show that the limiting distribution of the LAD estimator (and thus the derived test statistics) is closely associated with unknown heteroscedasticity. To…

如何比较 Copula 预测？AI 解读

This paper lays out a principled approach to compare copula forecasts via strictly consistent scores. We first establish the negative result that, in general, copulas fail to be elicitable, implying that copula predictions alone do not allow for meaningful comparisons. A notable exception is on Fréchet classes, that is, when the marginals are given and identical across all elements of the class, in which case we give suitable scores for the copula forecast comparison. As a…

不同频率预测的统计比较AI 解读

Current forecast evaluation tests can only assess forecasts generated at the same frequency. However, in real-world scenarios, predictions for the same economic variable may be made at different frequencies. The existing literature lacks statistical tests for evaluating such forecasts. This paper introduces a new evaluation test for comparing these forecasts. We propose a two-sample t-type test designed to test the equality of means between two potentially correlated time…

具有共同随机趋势的高维门限因子模型AI 解读

We study inference for threshold regression in the context of a large factor model with common stochastic trends. We develop a Least Squares estimator for the threshold level, deriving almost sure rates of convergence and proposing a novel way of constructing confidence intervals based on a randomized test. Our confidence intervals are constructed using the rates of convergence of the estimated threshold level, and no limiting distribution is required. We also develop a…

无效代理变量与波动率变化AI 解读

When in proxy-SVARs the covariance matrix of VAR disturbances is subject to exogenous, permanent breaks that cause IRFs to change across volatility regimes, even strong, exogenous external instruments yield inconsistent estimates of the dynamic causal effects. However, if these volatility shifts are properly incorporated into the analysis through (testable) "stability restrictions", we demonstrate that the target IRFs are point-identified and can be estimated consistently…

异质性面板中的个体平均估计AI 解读

In this work, we introduce a unit averaging procedure to efficiently recover unit-specific parameters in a heterogeneous panel model. The procedure consists in estimating the parameter of a given unit using a weighted average of all the unit-specific parameter estimators in the panel. The weights of the average are determined by minimizing an MSE criterion we derive. We analyze the properties of the resulting minimum MSE unit averaging estimator in a local heterogeneity…

利用混合整数规划检测时间序列变点AI 解读

We use cutting-edge mixed integer optimization (MIO) methods to develop a framework for detection and estimation of structural breaks in time series regression models. The framework is constructed based on the least squares problem subject to a penalty on the number of breakpoints. We restate the l0-penalized regression problem as a quadratic programming problem with integer- and real-valued arguments and show that MIO is capable of finding provably optimal solutions using a…

跨时间平滑方差：自适应随机波动率AI 解读

We introduce a novel Bayesian framework for estimating time-varying volatility by extending the Random Walk Stochastic Volatility (RWSV) model with Dynamic Shrinkage Processes (DSP) in log-variances. Unlike the classical Stochastic Volatility (SV) or GARCH-type models with restrictive parametric stationarity assumptions, our proposed Adaptive Stochastic Volatility (ASV) model provides smooth yet dynamically adaptive estimates of evolving volatility and its uncertainty. We…

区分宏观数据因子模型中的结构断点AI 解读

We develop a projection-based decomposition to disentangle structural breaks in the factor variance and factor loadings. Our approach yields test statistics that can be compared against standard distributions commonly used in the structural break literature. Because standard methods for estimating factor models in macroeconomics normalize the factor variance, they do not distinguish between breaks of the factor variance and factor loadings. Applying our procedure to U.S.…

重新审视石油供给新闻冲击：代理变量与非高斯结构向量自回归AI 解读

ABSTRACT We replicate a study by Känzig ( American Economic Review , 111 (2021), 1092–1125), who employs structural vector autoregressive techniques to examine the impact of changes in oil supply expectations on the price of oil and other macroeconomic aggregates. Känzig identifies an oil supply news shock by constructing a proxy from OPEC announcements about their production plans. As an alternative approach, we use non‐Gaussianity and independence to identify structural…

大冲击宏观模型的快速高效估计AI 解读

We propose a new approach for efficiently estimating and analyzing macroeconomic models subject to large shocks. We apply the methodology to a two-sector model that captures the heterogeneous exposure of different sectors to the COVID-19 pandemic. We solve the model nonlinearly and propose a new nonlinear, non-Gaussian filter designed to handle large shocks and identify their source and time location. Monte Carlo experiments show that the estimation and identification of…

基于条件异方差识别日度油价冲击及其不确定性AI 解读

This paper develops a daily structural VAR for identifying oil price shocks from conditional heteroskedasticity and quantifies the transmission of their timevarying uncertainty. Identification exploits volatility clustering and spillovers in a structural GARCH specification and the complete identified set is derived. We derive covariance impulse response functions and introduce a time-varying forecast error variance decomposition (TV-FEVD) that allows for a decomposition of…
