基于已实现分位数的积分方差估计AI 解读

In this paper, we propose a new jump robust quantile-based realised variance measure of ex-post return variation that can be computed using potentially noisy data. The estimator is consistent for the integrated variance and we present feasible central limit theorems which show that it converges at the best attainable rate and has excellent efficiency. Asymptotically, the quantile-based realised variance is immune to finite activity jumps and outliers in the price series,…

漂移爆发假说AI 解读

The drift burst hypothesis postulates the existence of short-lived locally explosive trends in the price paths of financial assets. The recent U.S. equity and treasury flash crashes can be viewed as two high-profile manifestations of such dynamics, but we argue that drift bursts of varying magnitude are an expected and regular occurrence in financial markets that can arise through established mechanisms of liquidity provision. We show how to build drift bursts into the…

日内周期模式能否解释日内波动率变化？一项非参数评估AI 解读

In this paper, we propose a nonparametric way to test the hypothesis that time-variation in intraday volatility is caused solely by a deterministic and recurrent diurnal pattern. We assume that noisy high-frequency data from a discretely sampled jump-diffusion process are available. The test is then based on asset returns, which are deflated by the seasonal component and therefore homoskedastic under the null. To construct our test statistic, we extend the concept of…

高频数据推断：一种子抽样方法AI 解读

In this paper, we show how to estimate the asymptotic (conditional) covariance matrix, which appears in central limit theorems in high-frequency estimation of asset return volatility. We provide a recipe for the estimation of this matrix by subsampling; an approach that computes rescaled copies of the original statistic based on local stretches of high-frequency data, and then it studies the sampling variation of these. We show that our estimator is consistent both in…

基于已实现价格极差的积分方差估计AI 解读

We provide a set of probabilistic laws for estimating the quadratic variation of continuous semimartingales with realized range-based variance -- a statistic that replaces every squared return of realized variance with a normalized squared range. If the entire sample path of the process is available, and under a set of weak conditions, our statistic is consistent and has a mixed Gaussian limit, whose precision is five times greater than that of realized variance. In…

随机方差的已实现经验分布及其拟合优度检验AI 解读

We propose a nonparametric estimator of the empirical distribution function (EDF) of the latent spot variance of the log-price of a financial asset. We show that over a fixed time span our realized EDF (or REDF) -- inferred from noisy high-frequency data -- is consistent as the mesh of the observation grid goes to zero. In a double-asymptotic framework, with time also increasing to infinity, the REDF converges to the cumulative distribution function of volatility, if it…

风险下的归一化分数阶熵决策模型AI 解读

Constructing efficient portfolios requires balancing expected returns with risk through optimal stock selection, while accounting for investor preferences. In a recent work by Paul and Kundu (2026), the fractional-order entropy due to Ubriaco was introduced as an uncertainty measure to capture varying investor attitudes toward risk. Building on this foundation, we introduce a novel normalized fractional order entropy aligned with investors' risk preferences that combines…

We propose a novel estimation framework for quadratic functionals of precision matrices in high-dimensional settings, particularly in regimes where the feature dimension $p$ exceeds the sample size $n$. Traditional moment-based estimators with bias correction remain consistent when $p n$, highlighting a fundamental distinction between the two regimes due to rank deficiency and high-dimensional complexity. Our approach resolves these issues by combining a spectral-moment…

Multi-group classification arises in many prediction and decision-making problems, including applications in epidemiology, genomics, finance, and image recognition. Although classification methods have advanced considerably, much of the literature focuses on binary problems, and available extensions often provide limited flexibility for multi-group settings. Recent work has extended linear discriminant analysis to multiple groups, but more general methods are still needed to…

Hermite 过程的修正加权幂变差及其在积分波动率估计中的应用AI 解读

We study the asymptotic behaviour of modified weighted power variations of the Hermite process of arbitrary order. By selecting suitable "good" increments and exploiting their decomposition into dominant independent components, we establish a central limit theorem for weighted $p$-variations using tools from Stein-Malliavin calculus. Our results extend previous works on modified quadratic and wavelet-based variations to general powers and to weighted settings, with explicit…

公司信用组合地缘政治风险的反向压力测试：形式化与操作框架AI 解读

This paper proposes a formal framework for reverse stress testing geopolitical risk in corporate credit portfolios. A joint macro-financial scenario vector, augmented with an explicit geopolitical risk factor, is mapped into stressed probabilities of default and losses given default. These stresses are then propagated to portfolio tail losses through a latent factor structure and translated into a stressed CET1 ratio, jointly accounting for capital depletion and…

交易摩擦下风险调整决策的效用加权预测与校准AI 解读

Forecasting accuracy is routinely optimised in financial prediction tasks even though investment and risk-management decisions are executed under transaction costs, market impact, capacity limits, and binding risk constraints. This paper treats forecasting as an econometric input to a constrained decision problem. A predictive distribution induces a decision rule through a utility objective combined with an explicit friction operator consisting of both a cost functional and…

巴西五年期 DI 期货利率变动的基点分解AI 解读

This paper proposes an empirical, replicable, and interpretable framework to decompose, in basis points (bps), daily changes in Brazil's 5-year DI futures rate (DI5Y). The approach combines three building blocks: (i) macroeconomic and fiscal expectations from the Central Bank of Brazil Focus survey, converted into daily changes; (ii) a supervised macro factor built with Partial Least Squares (PLS) that summarizes changes in expectations together with a high-frequency macro…

系统性风险的在线监测AI 解读

Following several episodes of financial market turmoil in recent decades, changes in systemic risk have drawn growing attention. Therefore, we propose surveillance schemes for systemic risk, which allow to detect misspecified systemic risk forecasts in an "online" fashion. This enables daily monitoring of the forecasts while controlling for the accumulation of false test rejections. Such online schemes are vital in taking timely countermeasures to avoid financial distress.…

资产定价模型的选择与检验：逐步方法AI 解读

The asset pricing literature emphasizes factor models that minimize pricing errors but overlooks unselected candidate factors that could enhance the performance of test assets. This paper proposes a framework for factor model selection and testing by (i) selecting the optimal model that spans the joint efficient frontier of test assets and all candidate factors, and (ii) testing pricing performance on both test assets and unselected candidate factors. Our framework updates a…

利用信息准则识别稀疏金融网络AI 解读

Empirical measures of financial connectedness based on Forecast Error Variance Decompositions (FEVDs) often yield dense network structures that obscure true transmission channels and complicate the identification of systemic risk. This paper proposes a novel information-criterion-based approach to uncover sparse, economically meaningful financial networks. By reformulating FEVD-based connectedness as a regression problem, we develop a model selection framework that…

高维 Copula 的谱动态与正则化AI 解读

We introduce a novel model for time-varying, asymmetric, tail-dependent copulas in high dimensions that incorporates both spectral dynamics and regularization. The dynamics of the dependence matrix' eigenvalues are modeled in a score-driven way, while biases in the unconditional eigenvalue spectrum are resolved by non-linear shrinkage. The dynamic parameterization of the copula dependence matrix ensures that it satisfies the appropriate restrictions at all times and for any…

多变量随机波动率模型的因子分析AI 解读

Modeling the time-varying covariance structures of high-dimensional variables is critical across diverse scientific and industrial applications; however, existing approaches exhibit notable limitations in either modeling flexibility or inferential efficiency. For instance, change-point modeling fails to account for the continuous time-varying nature of covariance structures, while GARCH and stochastic volatility models suffer from over-parameterization and the risk of…

MarketGAN：利用生成对抗网络增强多变量金融时间序列数据AI 解读

This paper introduces MarketGAN, a factor-based generative framework for high-dimensional asset return generation under severe data scarcity. We embed an explicit asset-pricing factor structure as an economic inductive bias and generate returns as a single joint vector, thereby preserving cross-sectional dependence and tail co-movement alongside inter-temporal dynamics. MarketGAN employs generative adversarial learning with a temporal convolutional network (TCN) backbone,…

纯跳半鞅中即期波动率的非参数推断AI 解读

We provide a comprehensive analysis of spot volatility inference in pure-jump semimartingales under two asymptotic settings: fixed-$k$, where each local window uses a fixed number of observations, and large-$k$, where this number grows with sampling frequency. For both active- and possibly inactive-jump settings, we derive generally nonstandard, typically non-Gaussian limit distributions and establish valid inference, including when the jump-activity index is consistently…

多元动态回归模型设定检验的有限样本性质AI 解读

We propose a new model specification test for multiple-equation systems with cross-equation error and dynamic regressor--error dependences. Conventional tests often rely on exogeneity conditions strong enough to ensure consistency of the OLS estimator. These exogeneity conditions are violated when regressors and errors are dynamically dependent, rendering conventional model specification tests invalid. To address these limitations, we clarify the relationship among…

基于函数型分位数自相关的函数型时间序列白噪声检验AI 解读

We introduce a novel class of nonlinear tests for serial dependence in functional time series, grounded in the functional quantile autocorrelation framework. Unlike traditional approaches based on the classical autocovariance kernel, the functional quantile autocorrelation framework leverages quantile-based excursion sets to robustly capture temporal dependence within infinite-dimensional functional data, accommodating potential outliers and complex nonlinear dependencies.…

一种稳健的相似性估计量AI 解读

We analyze a measure of statistical association based on the similarity of the outcomes of random variables, in both sign and magnitude. Motivated by its attractive properties, we propose a class of estimators for the linear correlation coefficient, a sample-average and a maximum-likelihood version, that operate directly on the Fisher scale and possess a robust sampling distribution that is invariant over the entire class of elliptical distributions. Under scale homogeneity,…
