存在不稳定性时的分位数格兰杰因果检验AI 解读

We propose a new framework for assessing Granger causality in quantiles in unstable environments, for a fixed quantile or over a continuum of quantile levels. Our proposed test statistics are consistent against fixed alternatives, they have nontrivial power against local alternatives, and they are pivotal in certain important special cases. In addition, we show the validity of a bootstrap procedure when asymptotic distributions depend on nuisance parameters. Monte Carlo…

二项时间序列的序贯变点检测AI 解读

A binomial time series describes binary behaviors of individuals within a group, which depend on group behaviors in the past. Binomial time series data is widely applied in fields such as infection tracking and behavior analysis. In this paper, we introduce a generalized Binomial AR($p$) model with exogenous variables based on Generalized Linear Model (GLM), prove the statistical properties of the model when $p = 1$, and provide a parameter estimation method. Then, we…

含外生变量的组成时间序列序贯变点检测AI 解读

Sequential change-point detection for time series enables us to sequentially check the hypothesis that the model still holds as more and more data are observed. It is widely used in data monitoring in practice. In this work, we consider sequential change-point detection for compositional time series, time series in which the observations are proportions. For fitting compositional time series, we propose a generalized Beta AR(1) model, which can incorporate exogenous…

双向聚类依赖下的极端分位数AI 解读

This paper studies extremal quantiles under two-way clustered dependence. We show that the limiting distribution of unconditional intermediate-order tail quantiles is Gaussian. This result is notable because two-way clustering typically leads to non-Gaussian limiting behavior. Remarkably, extremal quantiles remain asymptotically Gaussian even in degenerate cases. Building on this insight, we extend our analysis to extremal quantile regression at intermediate orders.…

移动聚合修正的自回归 Copula 时间序列模型AI 解读

Copula-based time series models can model univariate and stationary time series in a flexible way by decomposing the joint distribution of consecutive observations into a copula and the stationary distribution. Implicitly this approach assumes a finite Markov order. In reality a time series may not follow the Markov property. We modify the copula-based time series models by introducing a moving aggregate (MAG) part into the model updating equation. The functional form of the…

mshw：基于多重季节 Holt–Winters 模型的短期电力需求预测库AI 解读

Transmission system operators have a growing need for more accurate forecasting of electricity demand. Current electricity systems largely require demand forecasting so that the electricity market establishes electricity prices as well as the programming of production units. The companies that are part of the electrical system use exclusive software to obtain predictions, based on the use of time series and prediction tools, whether statistical or artificial intelligence.…

单变量与多变量观测时序中 Lévy 驱动随机系统的最大似然估计AI 解读

Literature is full of inference techniques developed to estimate the parameters of stochastic dynamical systems driven by the well-known Brownian noise. Such diffusion models are often inappropriate models to properly describe the dynamics reflected in many real-world data which are dominated by jump discontinuities of various sizes and frequencies. To account for the presence of jumps, jump-diffusion models are introduced and some inference techniques are developed.…

机器学习、偏微分方程与统计中的再生核方法AI 解读

This monograph develops a unified, application-driven framework for kernel methods grounded in reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces (RKHS) and optimal transport (OT). Part I lays the theoretical and numerical foundations on positive-definite kernels; discrete and continuous RKHS; kernel engineering and scaling maps; error assessment via kernel discrepancy/maximum mean discrepancy (MMD); and a systematic operator view of kernels. In this viewpoint, projection, gradient,…

自回归运动方程的通解AI 解读

We provide a complete description of the set of all solutions to a vector autoregressive law of motion. Every solution is shown to be the sum of three components, each corresponding to a directed flow of time. One component flows forward from the arbitrarily distant past; one flows backward from the arbitrarily distant future; and one flows outward from time zero. The three components are obtained by applying three complementary spectral projections to the solution, these…

用于收入确认提前期预测的贝叶斯 Dirichlet 自回归移动平均模型AI 解读

Lead time data is compositional data found frequently in the hospitality industry. Hospitality businesses earn fees each day, however these fees cannot be recognized until later. For business purposes, it is important to understand and forecast the distribution of future fees for the allocation of resources, for business planning, and for staffing. Motivated by 5 years of daily fees data, we propose a new class of Bayesian time series models, a Bayesian Dirichlet…

移动健康密集纵向数据的连续时间动态因子模型AI 解读

Intensive longitudinal data (ILD) collected in mobile health (mHealth) studies contain rich information on multiple outcomes measured frequently over time that have the potential to capture short-term and long-term dynamics. Motivated by an mHealth study of smoking cessation in which participants self-report the intensity of many emotions multiple times per day, we describe a dynamic factor model that summarizes the ILD as a low-dimensional, interpretable latent process.…

多变量概率预测的 CRPS 学习及日前电价应用AI 解读

This paper presents a new method for combining (or aggregating or ensembling) multivariate probabilistic forecasts, considering dependencies between quantiles and marginals through a smoothing procedure that allows for online learning. We discuss two smoothing methods: dimensionality reduction using Basis matrices and penalized smoothing. The new online learning algorithm generalizes the standard CRPS learning framework into multivariate dimensions. It is based on Bernstein…

用于高维时间序列的可解释且高效的无限阶向量自回归模型AI 解读

As a special infinite-order vector autoregressive (VAR) model, the vector autoregressive moving average (VARMA) model can capture much richer temporal patterns than the widely used finite-order VAR model. However, its practicality has long been hindered by its non-identifiability, computational intractability, and difficulty of interpretation, especially for high-dimensional time series. This paper proposes a novel sparse infinite-order VAR model for high-dimensional time…

时间序列非参数回归中基于差分的协方差矩阵估计及其设定检验应用AI 解读

Long-run covariance matrix estimation is the building block of time series inference. The corresponding difference-based estimator, which avoids detrending, has attracted considerable interest due to its robustness to both smooth and abrupt structural breaks and its competitive finite sample performance. However, existing methods mainly focus on estimators for the univariate process while their direct and multivariate extensions for most linear models are asymptotically…

整数值自回归模型中计数序列的检验AI 解读

The integer autoregressive (INAR) model is one of the most commonly used models in nonnegative integer-valued time series analysis and is a counterpart to the traditional autoregressive model for continuous-valued time series. To guarantee the integer-valued nature, the binomial thinning operator or more generally the generalized Steutel and van Harn operator is used to define the INAR model. However, the distributions of the counting sequences used in the operators have…

基于距离协方差的时间序列独立性自助检验AI 解读

We present a test for independence of two strictly stationary time series based on a bootstrap procedure for the distance covariance. Our test detects any kind of dependence between the two time series within an arbitrary maximum lag $L$. In simulation studies, our test outperforms alternative testing procedures. In proving the validity of the underlying bootstrap procedure, we generalise bounds for the Wasserstein distance between an empirical measure and its marginal…

This set of lecture notes discuss key concepts for the Structural Analysis of Vector Autoregressive models for the teaching of a course on Applied Macroeconometrics with Advanced Topics.

用于部分可观测动力时间序列预测的松弛自回归模型AI 解读

This study delves into the domain of dynamical systems, specifically the forecasting of dynamical time series defined through an evolution function. Traditional approaches in this area predict the future behavior of dynamical systems by inferring the evolution function. However, these methods may confront obstacles due to the presence of missing variables, which are usually attributed to challenges in measurement and a partial understanding of the system of interest. To…

高维矩阵值序列的建模与学习AI 解读

We propose a new matrix factor model, named RaDFaM, which is strictly derived based on the general rank decomposition and assumes a structure of a high-dimensional vector factor model for each basis vector. RaDFaM contributes a novel class of low-rank latent structure that makes tradeoff between signal intensity and dimension reduction from the perspective of tensor subspace. Based on the intrinsic separable covariance structure of RaDFaM, for a collection of matrix-valued…

高维函数型时间序列预测：地区年龄别死亡率应用AI 解读

We study the modeling and forecasting of high-dimensional functional time series (HDFTS), which can be cross-sectionally correlated and temporally dependent. We introduce a decomposition of the HDFTS into two distinct components: a deterministic component and a residual component that varies over time. The decomposition is derived through the estimation of two-way functional analysis of variance. A functional time series forecasting method, based on functional principal…

高斯与计数预测经协调后的分布性质AI 解读

Reconciliation enforces coherence between hierarchical forecasts, in order to satisfy a set of linear constraints. While most works focus on the reconciliation of the point forecasts, we consider probabilistic reconciliation and we analyze the properties of the distributions reconciled via conditioning. We provide a formal analysis of the variance of the reconciled distribution, treating separately the case of Gaussian forecasts and count forecasts. We also study the…

利用经济学家情景进行状态转换密度预测AI 解读

We propose an approach for generating macroeconomic density forecasts that incorporate information on multiple scenarios defined by experts. We adopt a regime-switching framework in which sets of scenarios ("views") are used as Bayesian priors on economic regimes. Predictive densities coming from different views are then combined by optimizing objective functions of density forecasting. We illustrate the approach with an empirical application to quarterly real-time forecasts…

基于模拟的转移密度近似与随机微分方程模型推断AI 解读

Stochastic Differential Equations (SDEs) serve as a powerful modeling tool in various scientific domains, including systems science, engineering, and ecological science. While the specific form of SDEs is typically known for a given problem, certain model parameters remain unknown. Efficiently inferring these unknown parameters based on observations of the state in discrete time series represents a vital practical subject. The challenge arises in nonlinear SDEs, where…

Resampling methods such as the bootstrap have proven invaluable in the field of machine learning. However, the applicability of traditional bootstrap methods is limited when dealing with large streams of dependent data, such as time series or spatially correlated observations. In this paper, we propose a novel bootstrap method that is designed to account for data dependencies and can be executed online, making it particularly suitable for real-time applications. This method…
