高维函数型时间序列中伪因子的来源分解AI 解读

This article explores a general factor structure for high-dimensional nonstationary functional time series, encompassing a wide range of factor models studied in the existing literature. We investigate the asymptotic spectral behaviors of the sample covariance operator under this general data structure. A novel fundamental sufficient condition, formulated in terms of a newly introduced effective rank tailored to this setup, is established under which empirical eigen-analysis…

高维时间序列的自回归筛自助法AI 解读

This paper proposes a new AR-sieve bootstrap approach to high-dimensional time series. The major challenge of classical bootstrap methods on high-dimensional time series is two-fold: curse of dimensionality and temporal dependence. To address such a difficulty, we utilize factor modeling to reduce dimension and capture temporal dependence simultaneously. A factor-based bootstrap procedure is constructed, which performs an AR-sieve bootstrap on the extracted low-dimensional…

利用因子模型学习公平决策：年金定价应用AI 解读

Fairness-aware statistical learning is essential for mitigating discrimination against protected attributes such as gender, race, and ethnicity in data-driven decision-making. This is particularly critical in high-stakes applications like insurance underwriting and annuity pricing, where biased business decisions can have significant financial and social consequences. Factor models are commonly used in these domains for risk assessment and pricing; however, their predictive…

大规模资产组合中的冲击自适应稳健最小方差投资组合AI 解读

This paper proposes a robust, shocks-adaptive portfolio in a large-dimensional assets universe where the number of assets could be comparable to or even larger than the sample size. It is well documented that portfolios based on optimizations are sensitive to outliers in return data. We deal with outliers by proposing a robust factor model, contributing methodologically through the development of a robust principal component analysis (PCA) for factor model estimation and a…

时间序列的局部神经网络建模：美国货币政策案例AI 解读

In this paper, we investigate a semiparametric regression model under the context of treatment effects via a localized neural network (LNN) approach. Due to a vast number of parameters involved, we reduce the number of effective parameters by (i) exploring the use of identification restrictions; and (ii) adopting a variable selection method based on the group-LASSO technique. Subsequently, we derive the corresponding estimation theory and propose a dependent wild bootstrap…

高维样本自协方差矩阵尖峰特征值的中心极限定理及应用AI 解读

High-dimensional autocovariance matrices play an important role in dimension reduction for high-dimensional time series. In this article, we establish the central limit theorem (CLT) for spiked eigenvalues of high-dimensional sample autocovariance matrices, which are developed under general conditions. The spiked eigenvalues are allowed to go to infinity in a flexible way without restrictions in divergence order. Moreover, the number of spiked eigenvalues and the time lag of…

用双因子结构预测高维函数型时间序列AI 解读

We propose a dual-factor model for high-dimensional functional time series (HDFTS) that considers multiple populations. The HDFTS is first decomposed into a collection of functional time series (FTS) in a lower dimension and a group of population-specific basis functions. The system of basis functions describes cross-sectional heterogeneity, while the reduced-dimension FTS retains most of the information common to multiple populations. The low-dimensional FTS is further…

函数型数据的因子增强模型AI 解读

We propose modeling raw functional data as a mixture of a smooth function and a high-dimensional factor component. The conventional approach to retrieving the smooth function from the raw data is through various smoothing techniques. However, the smoothing model is inadequate to recover the smooth curve or capture the data variation in some situations. These include cases where there is a large amount of measurement error, the smoothing basis functions are incorrectly…

多重函数型时间序列的聚类与预测AI 解读

Modelling and forecasting homogeneous age-specific mortality rates of multiple countries could lead to improvements in long-term forecasting. Data fed into joint models are often grouped according to nominal attributes, such as geographic regions, ethnic groups, and socioeconomic status, which may still contain heterogeneity and deteriorate the forecast results. Our paper proposes a novel clustering technique to pursue homogeneity among multiple functional time series based…

含一般因子与回归变量的交互效应面板模型AI 解读

This paper considers a model with general regressors and unobservable factors. An estimator based on iterated principal components is proposed, which is shown to be not only asymptotically normal and oracle efficient, but under certain conditions also free of the otherwise so common asymptotic incidental parameters bias. Interestingly, the conditions required to achieve unbiasedness become weaker the stronger the trends in the factors, and if the trending is strong enough…

函数型时间序列的特征提取：理论与近红外光谱应用AI 解读

We propose a novel method to extract global and local features of functional time series. The global features concerning the dominant modes of variation over the entire function domain, and local features of function variations over particular short intervals within function domain, are both important in functional data analysis. Functional principal component analysis (FPCA), though a key feature extraction tool, only focus on capturing the dominant global features,…

We propose modeling raw functional data as a mixture of a smooth function and a highdimensional factor component. The conventional approach to retrieving the smooth function from the raw data is through various smoothing techniques. However, the smoothing model is not adequate to recover the smooth curve or capture the data variation in some situations. These include cases where there is a large amount of measurement error, the smoothing basis functions are incorrectly…

因子模型的死亡率预测：时变还是固定因子载荷？AI 解读

Many existing mortality models follow the framework of classical factor models, such as the Lee-Carter model and its variants. Latent common factors in factor models are defined as time-related mortality indices (such as $κ_t$ in the Lee-Carter model). Factor loadings, which capture the linear relationship between age variables and latent common factors (such as $β_x$ in the Lee-Carter model), are assumed to be time-invariant in the classical framework. This assumption is…

利用三维面板数据模型分解双边贸易流量AI 解读

This study decomposes the bilateral trade flows using a three-dimensional panel data model. Under the scenario that all three dimensions diverge to infinity, we propose an estimation approach to identify the number of global shocks and country-specific shocks sequentially, and establish the asymptotic theories accordingly. From the practical point of view, being able to separate the pervasive and nonpervasive shocks in a multi-dimensional panel data is crucial for a range of…
