大型已实现协方差矩阵预测：因子模型与收缩的作用AI 解读

We propose a model to forecast large realized covariance matrices of returns, applying it to the constituents of the S\&P 500 daily. To address the curse of dimensionality, we decompose the return covariance matrix using standard firm-level factors (e.g., size, value, and profitability) and use sectoral restrictions in the residual covariance matrix. This restricted model is then estimated using vector heterogeneous autoregressive (VHAR) models with the least absolute…

大维因子模型的 Huber 主成分分析AI 解读

Factor models have been widely used in economics and finance. However, the heavy-tailed nature of macroeconomic and financial data is often neglected in the existing literature. To address this issue and achieve robustness, we propose an approach to estimate factor loadings and scores by minimizing the Huber loss function, which is motivated by the equivalence of conventional Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and the constrained least squares method in the factor model. We…

HAR–Itô 模型与高频数据的高维 HAR 建模AI 解读

It is an important task to model realized volatilities for high-frequency data in finance and economics and, as arguably the most popular model, the heterogeneous autoregressive (HAR) model has dominated the applications in this area. However, this model suffers from three drawbacks: (i.) its heterogeneous volatility components are linear combinations of daily realized volatilities with fixed weights, which limit its flexibility for different types of assets, (ii.) it is…

金融多重检验中的序贯柯西组合检验AI 解读

We introduce a simple tool to control for false discoveries and identify individual signals in scenarios involving many tests, dependent test statistics, and potentially sparse signals. The tool applies the Cauchy combination test recursively on a sequence of expanding subsets of $p$-values and is referred to as the sequential Cauchy combination test. While the original Cauchy combination test aims to make a global statement about a set of null hypotheses by summing…

高维动态因子模型下的多重检验AI 解读

Large-scale multiple testing under static factor models is widely used to detect sparse signals in high-dimensional data. However, static factor models are arguably too stringent because they ignore serial correlation, which seriously distorts error rate control in large-scale inference. In this manuscript, we propose a new multiple testing procedure under dynamic factor models that is robust to nonlinear serial dependence. The idea is to integrate a new sample-splitting…

用于股市波动率预测的网络 log-ARCH 模型AI 解读

This paper presents a novel dynamic network autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity (ARCH) model based on spatiotemporal ARCH models to forecast volatility in the US stock market. To improve the forecasting accuracy, the model integrates temporally lagged volatility information and information from adjacent nodes, which may instantaneously spill across the entire network. The model is also suitable for high-dimensional cases where multivariate ARCH models are typically…

含大量协变量的大规模面板数据推断AI 解读

This paper proposes a novel testing procedure for selecting a sparse set of covariates that explains a large dimensional panel. Our selection method provides correct false detection control while having higher power than existing approaches. We develop the inferential theory for large panels with many covariates by combining post-selection inference with a novel multiple testing adjustment. Our data-driven hypotheses are conditional on the sparse covariate selection. We…

等相关正态总体的相关矩阵：最大特征值波动、谱主体缩放与股票市场AI 解读

Given an $N$-dimensional sample of size $T$ and form a sample correlation matrix $\mathbf{C}$. Suppose that $N$ and $T$ tend to infinity with $T/N $ converging to a fixed finite constant $Q>0$. If the population is a factor model, then the eigenvalue distribution of $\mathbf{C}$ almost surely converges weakly to Marčenko-Pastur distribution such that the index is $Q$ and the scale parameter is the limiting ratio of the specific variance to the $i$-th variable $(i\to\infty)$.…

函数型数据中随机偏微分方程实现协变差的可行中心极限定理AI 解读

This article establishes an asymptotic theory for volatility estimation in an infinite-dimensional setting. We consider mild solutions of semilinear stochastic partial differential equations and derive a stable central limit theorem for the semigroup adjusted realised covariation (SARCV), which is a consistent estimator of the integrated volatility and a generalisation of the realised quadratic covariation to Hilbert spaces. Moreover, we introduce semigroup adjusted…
