杠杆效应与波动率之波动的经验特征函数估计及可行推断AI 解读

We develop jump-robust estimators of the leverage effect and volatility of volatility using high-frequency data. Our construction begins with a spot volatility estimator based on the empirical characteristic function of high-frequency increments. This method can mitigate the contamination from jumps, which can be of infinite variation. We then construct estimators of the leverage effect and volatility of volatility and correct for the bias induced by spot volatility…

广义协方差与相关模型下尖峰特征结构的统计推断AI 解读

In high-dimensional principal component analysis, important inferential targets include both leading spikes and the associated principal eigenspaces. Such problems arise naturally in high-dimensional factor models, where leading principal directions are interpreted as dominant loading directions and spike magnitudes reflect the strength of the corresponding common factors. We study inference based on the sample covariance matrix $\bS$ and the sample correlation matrix $\widehat{\bR}$…

高维瞬时波动率矩阵的谱分析及应用AI 解读

In random matrix theory, the spectral distribution of the covariance matrix has been well studied under the large dimensional asymptotic regime when the dimensionality and the sample size tend to infinity at the same rate. However, most existing theories are built upon the assumption of independent and identically distributed samples, which may be violated in practice. For example, the observational data of continuous-time processes at discrete time points, namely, the…

伪因子困境：重尾椭圆因子模型中的稳健推断AI 解读

Standard methods for determining the number of factors often overestimate the true number when data exhibit heavy-tailed randomness, misinterpreting noise-induced outliers as genuine factors. This paper addresses this challenge within the framework of Elliptical Factor Models (EFM), which accommodate both heavy tails and potential non-linear dependencies common in real-world data. We demonstrate, both theoretically and empirically, that heavy-tailed noise generates spurious…

矩阵值椭圆分布观测的新非参数 Kendall 秩相关方法AI 解读

In this article, we first propose generalized row/column matrix Kendall's tau for matrix-variate observations that are ubiquitous in areas such as finance and medical imaging. For a random matrix following a matrix-variate elliptically contoured distribution, we show that the eigenspaces of the proposed row/column matrix Kendall's tau coincide with those of the row/column scatter matrix respectively, with the same descending order of the eigenvalues. We perform eigenvalue…

利用自助样本协方差矩阵检验高维因子模型的共同因子数AI 解读

This paper studies the impact of bootstrap procedure on the eigenvalue distributions of the sample covariance matrix under a high-dimensional factor structure. We provide asymptotic distributions for the top eigenvalues of bootstrapped sample covariance matrix under mild conditions. After bootstrap, the spiked eigenvalues which are driven by common factors will converge weakly to Gaussian limits after proper scaling and centralization. However, the largest non-spiked…

广义椭圆模型下样本协方差矩阵的极端特征值及应用AI 解读

We consider the extreme eigenvalues of the sample covariance matrix $Q=YY^*$ under the generalized elliptical model that $Y=Σ^{1/2}XD.$ Here $Σ$ is a bounded $p \times p$ positive definite deterministic matrix representing the population covariance structure, $X$ is a $p \times n$ random matrix containing either independent columns sampled from the unit sphere in $\mathbb{R}^p$ or i.i.d. centered entries with variance $n^{-1},$ and $D$ is a diagonal random matrix containing…

用于高维时间序列聚类的因子建模AI 解读

We propose a new unsupervised learning method for clustering a large number of time series based on a latent factor structure. Each cluster is characterized by its own cluster-specific factors in addition to some common factors which impact on all the time series concerned. Our setting also offers the flexibility that some time series may not belong to any clusters. The consistency with explicit convergence rates is established for the estimation of the common factors, the…
