粗糙度特征函数AI 解读

Inspired by the activity signature introduced by Todorov and Tauchen (2010), which was used to measure the activity of a semimartingale, this paper introduces the roughness signature function. The paper illustrates how it can be used to determine whether a discretely observed process is generated by a continuous process that is rougher than a Brownian motion, a pure-jump process, or a combination of the two. Further, if a continuous rough process is present, the function…

多预测变量回归的稳健推断及债券风险溢价应用AI 解读

We propose a robust hypothesis testing procedure for the predictability of multiple predictors that could be highly persistent. Our method improves the popular extended instrumental variable (IVX) testing (Phillips and Lee, 2013; Kostakis et al., 2015) in that, besides addressing the two bias effects found in Hosseinkouchack and Demetrescu (2021), we find and deal with the variance-enlargement effect. We show that two types of higher-order terms induce these distortion…

系统性风险建模：时变非参数因果推断框架AI 解读

We propose a nonparametric and time-varying directed information graph (TV-DIG) framework to estimate the evolving causal structure in time series networks, thereby addressing the limitations of traditional econometric models in capturing high-dimensional, nonlinear, and time-varying interconnections among series. This framework employs an information-theoretic measure rooted in a generalized version of Granger-causality, which is applicable to both linear and nonlinear…

用于状态空间模型无似然推断的粒子 Gibbs 方法及随机波动率应用AI 解读

State space models (SSMs) are widely used to describe dynamic systems. However, when the likelihood of the observations is intractable, parameter inference for SSMs cannot be easily carried out using standard Markov chain Monte Carlo or sequential Monte Carlo methods. In this paper, we propose a particle Gibbs sampler as a general strategy to handle SSMs with intractable likelihoods in the approximate Bayesian computation (ABC) setting. The proposed sampler incorporates a…

允许时间效应序列相关的双向聚类标准误AI 解读

We propose improved standard errors and an asymptotic distribution theory for two-way clustered panels. Our proposed estimator and theory allow for arbitrary serial dependence in the common time effects, which is excluded by existing two-way methods, including the popular two-way cluster standard errors of Cameron, Gelbach, and Miller (2011) and the cluster bootstrap of Menzel (2021). Our asymptotic distribution theory is the first which allows for this level of…

具有偏度选择机制的随机波动率模型AI 解读

This paper expands traditional stochastic volatility models by allowing for time-varying skewness without imposing it. While dynamic asymmetry may capture the likely direction of future asset returns, it comes at the risk of leading to overparameterization. Our proposed approach mitigates this concern by leveraging sparsity-inducing priors to automatically selects the skewness parameter as being dynamic, static or zero in a data-driven framework. We consider two empirical…

通过参数连接缓解持续期依赖 Markov 转换模型的持续期选择AI 解读

One of the most important hyper-parameters in duration-dependent Markov-switching (DDMS) models is the duration of the hidden states. Because there is currently no procedure for estimating this duration or testing whether a given duration is appropriate for a given data set, an ad hoc duration choice must be heuristically justified. In this paper, we propose and examine a methodology that mitigates the choice of duration in DDMS models when forecasting is the goal. Two Monte…

金融收益协方差矩阵预测的简便方法AI 解读

We consider the well-studied problem of predicting the time-varying covariance matrix of a vector of financial returns. Popular methods range from simple predictors like rolling window or exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) to more sophisticated predictors such as generalized autoregressive conditional heteroscedastic (GARCH) type methods. Building on a specific covariance estimator suggested by Engle in 2002, we propose a relatively simple extension that requires…

分位数自回归条件异方差模型AI 解读

This paper proposes a novel conditional heteroscedastic time series model by applying the framework of quantile regression processes to the ARCH(\infty) form of the GARCH model. This model can provide varying structures for conditional quantiles of the time series across different quantile levels, while including the commonly used GARCH model as a special case. The strict stationarity of the model is discussed. For robustness against heavy-tailed distributions, a…

含不可观测因子的随机信用评级迁移模型：复合似然估计AI 解读

We introduce the conditional Maximum Composite Likelihood (MCL) estimation method for the stochastic factor ordered Probit model of credit rating transitions of firms. This model is recommended for internal credit risk assessment procedures in banks and financial institutions under the Basel III regulations. Its exact likelihood function involves a high-dimensional integral, which can be approximated numerically before maximization. However, the estimated migration risk and…

动态分位数预测回归的统一推断AI 解读

This paper develops unified asymptotic distribution theory for dynamic quantile predictive regressions which is useful when examining quantile predictability in stock returns under possible presence of nonstationarity.

不规则微观结构噪声下基于高频订单价格的日内瞬时波动率推断AI 解读

We consider estimation of the spot volatility in a stochastic boundary model with one-sided microstructure noise for high-frequency limit order prices. Based on discrete, noisy observations of an Itô semimartingale with jumps and general stochastic volatility, we present a simple and explicit estimator using local order statistics. We establish consistency and stable central limit theorems as asymptotic properties. The asymptotic analysis builds upon an expansion of tail…

含随机波动率与多重时变权重的贝叶斯空间自回归模型AI 解读

A novel spatial autoregressive model for panel data is introduced, which incorporates multilayer networks and accounts for time-varying relationships. Moreover, the proposed approach allows the structural variance to evolve smoothly over time and enables the analysis of shock propagation in terms of time-varying spillover effects. The framework is applied to analyse the dynamics of international relationships among the G7 economies and their impact on stock market returns…

多层矩阵因子模型AI 解读

Large-scale matrix data has been widely discovered and continuously studied in various fields recently. Considering the multi-level factor structure and utilizing the matrix structure, we propose a multilevel matrix factor model with both global and local factors. The global factors can affect all matrix times series, whereas the local factors are only allow to affect within each specific matrix time series. The estimation procedures can consistently estimate the factor…

动态已实现最小方差投资组合模型AI 解读

This paper introduces a dynamic minimum variance portfolio (MVP) model using nonlinear volatility dynamic models, based on high-frequency financial data. Specifically, we impose an autoregressive dynamic structure on MVP processes, which helps capture the MVP dynamics directly. To evaluate the dynamic MVP model, we estimate the inverse volatility matrix using the constrained $\ell_1$-minimization for inverse matrix estimation (CLIME) and calculate daily realized…

We propose a new approach to volatility modeling by combining deep learning (LSTM) and realized volatility measures. This LSTM-enhanced realized GARCH framework incorporates and distills modeling advances from financial econometrics, high frequency trading data and deep learning. Bayesian inference via the Sequential Monte Carlo method is employed for statistical inference and forecasting. The new framework can jointly model the returns and realized volatility measures, has…

分位数预测最优性的检验AI 解读

Quantile forecasts made across multiple horizons have become an important output of many financial institutions, central banks and international organisations. This paper proposes misspecification tests for such quantile forecasts that assess optimality over a set of multiple forecast horizons and/or quantiles. The tests build on multiple Mincer-Zarnowitz quantile regressions cast in a moment equality framework. Our main test is for the null hypothesis of autocalibration, a…

高维已实现协方差矩阵的谱范数界及弱因子模型应用AI 解读

Motivated by statistical analysis of latent factor models for high-frequency financial data, we develop sharp upper bounds for the spectral norm of the realized covariance matrix of a high-dimensional Itô semimartingale with possibly infinite activity jumps. For this purpose, we develop Burkholder-Gundy type inequalities for matrix martingales with the help of the theory of non-commutative $L^p$ spaces. The obtained bounds are applied to estimating the number of (relevant)…

任意分布漂移下在线预测的保形推断AI 解读

We consider the problem of forming prediction sets in an online setting where the distribution generating the data is allowed to vary over time. Previous approaches to this problem suffer from over-weighting historical data and thus may fail to quickly react to the underlying dynamics. Here we correct this issue and develop a novel procedure with provably small regret over all local time intervals of a given width. We achieve this by modifying the adaptive conformal…

GARCH 类模型的变分推断AI 解读

The Bayesian estimation of GARCH-family models has been typically addressed through Monte Carlo sampling. Variational Inference is gaining popularity and attention as a robust approach for Bayesian inference in complex machine learning models; however, its adoption in econometrics and finance is limited. This paper discusses the extent to which Variational Inference constitutes a reliable and feasible alternative to Monte Carlo sampling for Bayesian inference in GARCH-like…

马尔可夫切换时空 ARCH 模型AI 解读

Stock market indices are volatile by nature, and sudden shocks are known to affect volatility patterns. The autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (ARCH) and generalized ARCH (GARCH) models neglect structural breaks triggered by sudden shocks that may lead to an overestimation of persistence, causing an upward bias in the estimates. Different regime-switching models that have abrupt regime-switching governed by a Markov chain were developed to model volatility in…

无微观结构噪声情形下的 SIML 方法AI 解读

The SIML (abbreviation of Separating Information Maximal Likelihood) method, has been introduced by N. Kunitomo and S. Sato and their collaborators to estimate the integrated volatility of high-frequency data that is assumed to be an Itô process but with so-called microstructure noise. The SIML estimator turned out to share many properties with the estimator introduced by P. Malliavin and M.E. Mancino. The present paper establishes the consistency and the asymptotic…

利用样条对扩散过程进行灵活贝叶斯推断AI 解读

We introduce a flexible method to simultaneously infer both the drift and volatility functions of a discretely observed scalar diffusion. We introduce spline bases to represent these functions and develop a Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm to infer, a posteriori, the coefficients of these functions in the spline basis. A key innovation is that we use spline bases to model transformed versions of the drift and volatility functions rather than the functions themselves. The…

电子交易中的 Transformer 与 LSTM 比较AI 解读

With the rapid development of artificial intelligence, long short term memory (LSTM), one kind of recurrent neural network (RNN), has been widely applied in time series prediction. Like RNN, Transformer is designed to handle the sequential data. As Transformer achieved great success in Natural Language Processing (NLP), researchers got interested in Transformer's performance on time series prediction, and plenty of Transformer-based solutions on long time series forecasting…
