We study structural changes in multivariate time series by estimating and comparing stationary graphs of macroeconomic time series before and after an economic crisis, such as the Great Recession. Building on a latent time series framework called Orthogonally-rotated Univariate Time-series (OUT), we propose a shared-parameter framework-the spOUT autoregressive model (spOUTAR)-that jointly models two related multivariate time series and enables coherent Bayesian estimation of…

具有平稳有向无环图结构的高维时间序列贝叶斯推断AI 解读

In multivariate time series analysis, understanding the underlying causal relationships among variables is often of interest for various applications. Directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) provide a powerful framework for representing causal dependencies. This paper proposes a novel Bayesian approach for modeling multivariate time series where conditional independencies and causal structure are encoded by a DAG. The proposed model allows structural properties such as stationarity…

半参数高维时间序列关系图的贝叶斯学习AI 解读

Time series data arising in many applications nowadays are high-dimensional. A large number of parameters describe features of these time series. We propose a novel approach to modeling a high-dimensional time series through several independent univariate time series, which are then orthogonally rotated and sparsely linearly transformed. With this approach, any specified intrinsic relations among component time series given by a graphical structure can be maintained at all…

向量自回归中的关系图：大衰退与经济指标连接变化AI 解读

Under a high-dimensional vector autoregressive (VAR) model, we propose a way of efficiently estimating both the stationary graph structure between the nodal time series and their temporal dynamics. The framework is then used to make inferences on the change in interdependencies between several economic indicators due to the impact of the Great Recession, the financial crisis that lasted from 2007 through 2009. There are several key advantages of the proposed framework; (1)…

多元时间序列数据的隐私与效用平衡AI 解读

Utility-preserving data privatization is of utmost importance for data-producing agencies. The popular noise-addition privacy mechanism distorts autocorrelation patterns in time series data, thereby marring utility; in response, McElroy et al. (2023) introduced all-pass filtering (FLIP) as a utility-preserving time series data privatization method. Adapting this concept to multivariate data is more complex, and in this paper we propose a multivariate all-pass (MAP) filtering…

FLIP：保留时间序列效用的隐私机制AI 解读

Guaranteeing privacy in released data is an important goal for data-producing agencies. There has been extensive research on developing suitable privacy mechanisms in recent years. Particularly notable is the idea of noise addition with the guarantee of differential privacy. There are, however, concerns about compromising data utility when very stringent privacy mechanisms are applied. Such compromises can be quite stark in correlated data, such as time series data. Adding…

单向混合模型中汇总数据与个体患者数据的高效整合AI 解读

Often both Aggregate Data (AD) studies and Individual Patient Data (IPD) studies are available for specific treatments. Combining these two sources of data could improve the overall meta-analytic estimates of treatment effects. Moreover, often for some studies with AD, the associated IPD maybe available, albeit at some extra effort or cost to the analyst. We propose a method for combining treatment effects across trials when the response is from the exponential family of…

降秩与协整向量自回归的约束参数化AI 解读

The paper provides a parametrization of Vector Autoregression (VAR) that enables one to look at the parameters associated with unit root dynamics and those associated with stable dynamics separately. The task is achieved via a novel factorization of the VAR polynomial that partitions the polynomial spectrum into unit root and stable and zero roots via polynomial factors. The proposed factorization adds to the literature of spectral factorization of matrix polynomials. The…
