带自回归误差的线性回归在线变点检测：流式变分贝叶斯方法AI 解读

Large-scale streaming time-series regression requires methods that can detect structural changes while accounting for serially correlated errors and quantifying uncertainty about the current regime. We propose a streaming variational Bayes method for linear regression with autoregressive errors that combines online changepoint detection with sequential posterior inference. The proposed method processes observations in chronological mini-batches and uses a finite-mixture…

Incentives in experimental design are often misaligned: experimenters design and finance experiments to seek regulatory approval, while regulators seek to maximize social welfare. This incentive misalignment is especially relevant for Bayesian and adaptive trial designs, which have gained substantial popularity in recent years and have been actively encouraged by the US Food and Drug Administration. We propose a framework to resolve this conflict, wherein regulators set a…

重叠多步预测的贝叶斯协调：跨预测起点一致性的后处理框架AI 解读

Multi-step forecasting systems, including modern artificial intelligence (AI) models, often issue overlapping predictions for the same future time from different forecast origins. These predictions can disagree even when produced by the same model, a phenomenon we call cross-origin incoherence. We propose a Bayesian reconciliation framework that treats overlapping forecasts as noisy and potentially biased measurements of a common latent trajectory. The method operates as a…

We tackle the issue of producing point, sign, and density forecasts for the monthly real price of carbon in the European Union Emissions Trading System (EU ETS). We show that Bayesian Vector Autoregressive (BVAR) models augmented with factors based on macroeconomic and financial variables yield improvements in point and density forecasting performance, with the largest point-forecast gains emerging at intermediate and longer horizons. In particular, the one-factor BVAR model…

用收缩先验建模动态相关矩阵AI 解读

Estimating time-varying correlation matrices is challenging because existing methods may adapt slowly to structural changes, impose insufficient regularization, or produce diffuse posterior uncertainty. In moderate dimensions, an additional difficulty is summarizing the estimated evolving dependence structure for downstream decision-making tasks. We propose a Bayesian approach based on a low-rank factor representation, with latent states evolving under a dynamic shrinkage…

边际可能误设的 Copula 模型的贝叶斯模块化推断AI 解读

Copula models of multivariate data are popular because they allow separate specification of marginal distributions and the copula function. These components can be treated as inter-related modules in a modified Bayesian inference approach called ''cutting feedback'' that is robust to their misspecification. Recent work uses a two module approach, where all $d$ marginals form a single module, to robustify inference for the marginals against copula function misspecification,…

This paper develops a flexible and computationally efficient multivariate volatility model that accommodates dynamic conditional correlations and volatility spillover effects among financial assets. The new model has desirable properties such as identifiability and computational tractability for many assets.A sufficient condition for strict stationarity is derived for the process.Two quasi-maximum likelihood estimation methods are proposed for the new model without and with…

随机波动率管理组合的灵活变分近似AI 解读

This paper investigates volatility-managed portfolios through a variational Bayes approach that smooths stochastic volatility forecasts. Our algorithm exhibits competitive performance relative to established methods both in terms of inferential accuracy and computational efficiency. Analyzing equity factors and characteristic-based portfolios, we show that smoothing reduces excess leverage and turnover, significantly improving risk-adjusted returns after transaction costs.…

偏斜 t 分布实现随机波动率模型：波动率与尾部风险预测AI 解读

Accurate forecasting of volatility is essential for financial risk management and for the evaluation of tail risk measures such as value-at-risk (VaR) and expected shortfall (ES). This study proposes the realized stochastic volatility (RSV) model, an extension of the traditional stochastic volatility (SV) model that incorporates realized volatility as an efficient proxy for latent volatility. To better capture the stylized features of financial return distributions,…

因果—非因果状态空间模型与金融泡沫建模AI 解读

In this paper, we study causal non-causal state space models to model time series characterised by a local explosive increase followed by a sharp decrease such as stock prices. To motivate the use of causal non-causal state space models, we show that the causal non-causal convolution autoregressive model introduced by Gourieroux and Zakoian (2017) can be consistent with the rational expectations stock price model. As in a causal state space model, a central question is how…

从指数到多项式：高维马尔可夫切换多重分形模型的精确滤波AI 解读

In this paper we propose a new formulation of the Bayesian Filter as used in the discrete-time Markov-Switching-Multifractal (MSM) model of volatility based on existing permutation symmetry within the likelihood structure. We show both analytically and empirically that such a formulation leads to a reduction in time complexity from $O(D^k)$ to $O(k^D)$ thereby significantly reducing the computational bottleneck associated with dimensionality. We compare the agreement between…

依赖数据下的 WAIC：线性时间复杂度的协方差修正框架AI 解读

The Widely Applicable Information Criterion (WAIC) is a cornerstone of Bayesian model selection, but its conditional independence assumption renders it inappropriate for sequential and spatially correlated data - a limitation that leads to systematically underestimated model complexity and over-optimistic predictive assessments. We introduce CC-WAIC, a principled generalization of WAIC that explicitly incorporates the full posterior covariance structure of log-likelihood…

宏观审慎政策与下行风险：资本监管的状态依赖效应AI 解读

This paper employs a Threshold Bayesian Vector Autoregression (TBVAR) to estimate the regime-dependent macroeconomic effects of capital regulation in Hungary. Using the Factor-based Index of Systemic Stress (FISS) as the threshold variable, the model identifies normal and stress regimes consistent with the occasionally binding constraints literature. The TBVAR offers a practical multivariate alternative to Growth-at-Risk for data-constrained economies. Generalised impulse…

组合违约概率的广义脉冲响应：模块化框架与地缘政治风险应用AI 解读

Credit stress testing requires impulse responses of portfolio default probabilities, not only macro-financial drivers. We derive closed-form generalized impulse responses for the mean, quantiles (PD-at-Risk), and expected shortfall in a modular framework combining a Bayesian VAR, a Gaussian satellite, and the Merton-Vasicek model underlying Basel IRB regulation. Results extend to any probit-Gaussian mapping of a latent factor. Nonlinearity makes responses depend on…

正性约束下的贝叶斯图模型：一种可扩展的广义似然方法AI 解读

We develop a computationally scalable Bayesian framework for precision matrix estimation in Gaussian graphical models under total positivity constraints. To overcome the high computational cost of the Gaussian likelihood, we adopt a generalized Bayesian approach based on the $D$-trace loss, which eliminates the log-determinant term and enables efficient optimization while allowing relaxation of positive definiteness during sampling. Sparsity is induced via spike-and-slab…

采用斜对称归一化的广义重参数化变分贝叶斯AI 解读

Bayesian hierarchical models with high-dimensional latent structure require scalable posterior approximations that preserve key dependencies while remaining computationally tractable. Mean-field variational inference (MFVI) is efficient, but can be unreliable when local variables are strongly correlated or tightly coupled to global variables. We propose KNorm-RVB, a generalized reparametrized variational Bayes framework for latent Gaussian and latent non-Gaussian models with…

非高斯误差下全局-局部收缩先验的稳健高维贝叶斯回归AI 解读

Multivariate regression with many correlated responses and predictors commonly violates Gaussian error assumptions due to heavy tails, outliers, and asymmetry. Gaussian procedures then lose efficiency in coefficient estimation and produce biased estimates of conditional dependence graphs. We develop a robust Bayesian framework using a scale-location mixture error distribution and horseshoe+ global-local priors on both the regression coefficients and off-diagonals of the…

适用于异质非对称性的可计算统一偏斜t分布及其CopulaAI 解读

Multivariate distributions that allow for asymmetry and heavy tails are important building blocks in many econometric and statistical models. The Unified Skew-t (UST) is a promising choice because it is both scalable and allows for a high level of flexibility in the asymmetry in the distribution. However, it suffers from parameter identification and computational hurdles that have to date inhibited its use for modeling data. In this paper we propose a new tractable variant…

递归似然模型加速推断的稳定化加权子抽样AI 解读

Inference for models with recursively defined likelihoods is computationally demanding, limiting scalability to large datasets. We propose a stabilised weighted subsampling methodology for accelerated inference based on an unbiased estimator of the log-likelihood. By assigning higher sampling probabilities to early observations, the method reduces the effective depth of recursive likelihood evaluations and hence computational cost. However, sampling probabilities that decay…

结合隐马尔可夫模型与强化学习的状态依赖投资组合配置AI 解读

This study develops a regime-aware portfolio allocation framework that integrates Markov switching models with Reinforcement Learning (RL) to dynamically allocate across equities (SPY), long-term Treasuries (TLT), and gold (GLD). Using daily ETF data from 2004-2025, we first characterize market behavior through a discrete Markov chain and then estimate a three-state Gaussian Hidden Markov Model (HMM) selected by the Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC). The estimated…

金融资产价格预测中已实现波动率的贝叶斯动态建模AI 解读

We present a new class of Bayesian dynamic models for bivariate price-realized volatility time series in financial forecasting. A novel dynamic gamma process model adopted for realized volatility is integrated with traditional Bayesian dynamic linear models (DLMs) for asset price series. This represents reduced-form volatility leverage and feedback effects through use of realized volatility proxies in conditional DLMs for prices or returns, coupled with the synthesis of…

后验漂移下的过度参数化模型AI 解读

This paper investigates the impact of posterior drift on out-of-sample forecasting accuracy in overparametrized machine learning models. We document the loss in performance when the loadings of the data generating process change between the training and testing samples. This matters crucially in settings in which regime changes are likely to occur, for instance, in financial markets. Applied to equity premium forecasting, our results underline the sensitivity of a market…

跨分布预测油价：分位数向量自回归方法AI 解读

We develop a Quantile Bayesian Vector Autoregression (QBVAR) to forecast real oil prices across different quantiles of the conditional distribution. The model allows predictor effects to vary across quantiles, capturing asymmetries that standard mean-focused approaches miss. Using monthly data from 1975 to 2025, we document three findings. First, the QBVAR improves median forecasts by 2-5\% relative to Bayesian VARs, demonstrating that quantile-specific dynamics matter even…

平方损失下金融时间序列中 Transformer 模型的预测塌缩AI 解读

We study trajectory forecasting under squared loss for time series with weak conditional structure, using highly expressive prediction models. Building on the classical characterization of squared-loss risk minimization, we emphasize regimes in which the conditional expectation of future trajectories is effectively degenerate, leading to trivial Bayes-optimal predictors (flat for prices and zero for returns in standard financial settings). In this regime, increased model…
