Vector autoregression (VAR) models are widely used for forecasting and macroeconomic analysis, yet they remain limited by their reliance on a linear parameterization. Recent research has introduced nonparametric alternatives, such as Bayesian additive regression trees (BART), which provide flexibility without strong parametric assumptions. However, existing BART-based frameworks do not account for time dependency or allow for sparse estimation in the construction of regression tree priors, leading to noisy and inefficient high-dimensional representations. This paper introduces a sparsity-inducing Dirichlet hyperprior on the regression tree's splitting probabilities, allowing for automatic variable selection and high-dimensional VARs. Additionally, we propose a structured shrinkage prior that decreases the probability of splitting on higher-order lags, aligning with the Minnesota prior's principles. Empirical results demonstrate that our approach improves predictive accuracy over the baseline BART prior and Bayesian VAR (BVAR), particularly in capturing time-dependent relationships and enhancing density forecasts. These findings highlight the potential of developing domain-specific nonparametric methods in macroeconomic forecasting.

We show how state-of-the-art large language models (LLMs) can be trained effectively on limited historical data for macroeconomic forecasting. We estimate a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) model with stochastic volatility and Student-t shocks on an initial segment of the data to obtain a posterior distribution over structural parameters. We sample from this posterior to generate millions of theory-consistent synthetic panels that, when mixed with macroeconomic…
高维 VAR 模型中的贝叶斯收缩:比较研究
High-dimensional vector autoregressive (VAR) models offer a versatile framework for multivariate time series analysis, yet face critical challenges from over-parameterization and uncertain lag order. In this paper, we systematically compare three Bayesian shrinkage priors (horseshoe, lasso, and normal) and two frequentist regularization approaches (ridge and nonparametric shrinkage) under three carefully crafted simulation scenarios. These scenarios encompass (i) overfitting…
rfBLT:用于时间序列预测的随机特征贝叶斯 Lasso Takens 模型
Time series prediction is challenging due to our limited understanding of the underlying dynamics. Conventional models such as ARIMA and Holt's linear trend model experience difficulty in identifying nonlinear patterns in time series. In contrast, machine learning models excel at learning complex patterns and handling high-dimensional data; however, they are unable to quantify the uncertainty associated with their predictions, as statistical models do. To overcome these…
动态预测计量建模中的大数据
The modern economic environment is awash in Big Data. The business models of many of today’s largest and most innovative firms, for example, are intimately connected to data collection and processing. Closely related, all of science is now similarly awash in Big Data, due to massive advances in data capture and storage technology, typically in conjunction with the internet.1 Time-series econometrics is no exception, and the time-series community is beginning to confront Big…
疫情期间利用非参数混频 VAR 进行即时预测
This paper develops Bayesian econometric methods for posterior inference in non-parametric mixed frequency VARs using additive regression trees. We argue that regression tree models are ideally suited for macroeconomic nowcasting in the face of extreme observations, for instance those produced by the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020. This is due to their flexibility and ability to model outliers. In an application involving four major euro area countries, we find substantial…
具有结构化收缩与持续性先验的贝叶斯广义网络自回归模型
We propose a Bayesian generalized network autoregressive (BGNAR) model for multivariate time series whose component series are associated with the nodes of a known network. The proposed framework combines the parsimonious network structure of the generalized network autoregressive (GNAR) model with structured shrinkage and persistence priors adapted from Bayesian vector autoregressive (BVAR) modeling. We adapt Minnesota-type shrinkage to both own-lag and network-lag…
