无需VaR预测的期望损失E-回测：时间序列模型下的方法AI 解读

Expected Shortfall (ES) measures the average size of tail losses. Its sequential backtests typically also require a Value-at-Risk (VaR) forecast. We develop two e-backtesting methods using only observed losses and ES forecasts: one for iid losses only and the other for time series under an AR-GARCH conditional VaR structure. Under the stated assumptions, both control false rejections at any stopping time. For the time-series method, validity requires a fixed…

短程与长程相依下在线期望分位数估计的极限理论AI 解读

Expectiles are tail-sensitive distributional summaries with important applications in financial risk measurement and forecasting, yet statistical theory for their online estimation from dependent data remains limited. We study a one-pass, stochastic-gradient algorithm with constant learning rate $γ$ for estimating the marginal expectile of a stationary causal process. The recursion admits a unique stationary causal solution and geometrically forgets its initialization. Under…

重尾模型中的基于比率的因果发现AI 解读

In many complex systems, such as river networks and financial markets, extreme events propagate from causes to their effects, and the largest observations carry the most information about the underlying causal structure. Existing methods for causal discovery in extremes, however, are tailored to specific mechanisms, such as linear or max-linear models. This work develops causal discovery for heavy-tailed homogeneous structural causal models, a flexible class that contains…

相关矩阵的平衡参数化AI 解读

We introduce the balanced correlation parametrization (BCP), which maps positive-definite correlation matrices one-to-one onto the set of symmetric hollow matrices. A key feature of the parametrization is that both the transformation and its inverse are available in closed form. It combines marginal and partial correlations, is inverse-consistent and equivariant under variable permutations and sign changes, and preserves block structure. A novel property of BCP is that it…

已实现尾部风险条件自回归期望分位模型：精准稳定的预测表现AI 解读

A realized tail-risk conditional autoregressive expectile (RTCARE) model is proposed for joint forecasting of value-at-risk (VaR) and expected shortfall (ES). Realized tail measures such as the realized quantile and the realized ES, constructed from intraday high-frequency returns, are incorporated into the dynamics and measurement equations of the conditional expectile, allowing information about lower-tail risk to enter the forecasts. The parameters are estimated by Markov…

极端分位数回归加权最大似然估计量的存在性与一致性AI 解读

Estimating extreme conditional quantiles faces two major challenges: understanding complex nonlinear relationships between variables and accurately extrapolating into the tails of the distribution, where data are sparse. To address both issues, we introduce a novel approach that combines the theoretical framework of block maxima with the predictive power of generalized random forests. The conditional distribution of maxima is modeled by a generalized extreme value (GEV)…

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…

宏观经济尾部风险的非线性驱动：区制依赖杠杆的门限随机波动均值VARAI 解读

The tails of macroeconomic outcomes can respond differently from the centre of their distribution: shocks with modest effects on median growth or inflation can shift downside growth or upside inflation risk. We develop a threshold stochastic-volatility-in-mean VAR with regime-dependent leverage to study their structural drivers. The model allows endogenous interactions between outcomes and volatility, contemporaneous level-volatility dependence, and regime-specific…

Hüsler–Reiss 块模型的统计推断AI 解读

Estimating the H{ü}sler-Reiss precision matrix is a fundamental problem for statistical inference in multivariate extremes. In high-dimensional settings, the number of unknown parameters grows quadratically with the dimension, making regularisation indispensable. Existing approaches regularise the estimation problem by exploiting sparsity. In this paper, we consider an alternative structural assumption, namely that the H{ü}sler-Reiss precision matrix is block-structured. To…

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,…

超几何重尾分布族中的高斯边界推断AI 解读

This paper develops inference for a Gaussian-nested hypergeometric family of distribution functions. The family \[ G_c(z) = \frac12 + z\,\frac{Γ(c-1/2)}{2\sqrt2\,Γ(c)}\,{}_1F_1\!\left(\frac12;c;-\frac{z^2}{2}\right),\quad c\ge\frac32, \] contains the standard normal distribution at the boundary $c=3/2$. Away from the boundary, the density has algebraic tail behaviour $g_c(z)\sim(c-3/2)|z|^{-3}$, so the parameter $c$ indexes a directed heavy-tailed deformation of the Gaussian…

预测评分分解的统计推断AI 解读

We introduce inference methods for score decompositions, which partition scoring functions for predictive assessment into three interpretable components: miscalibration, discrimination, and uncertainty. Our estimation and inference relies on a linear recalibration of the forecasts and is applicable to general point forecasts such as means and quantiles due to its validity for non-smooth scoring functions. This approach ensures non-negative decomposition terms in finite…

利用市场信息网络建模并评估金融极端事件预测AI 解读

Modeling the joint distribution of extreme values in high-dimensional financial time series is challenging because extremes are sparse and locally extreme observations are not necessarily extreme relative to their full marginal distribution. To address this, we introduce a time-dependent network Hüsler-Reiss model in which market-informed adjacency matrices determine how strongly observations contribute to the estimation. We propose binary and weighted specifications,…

预期损失因子模型：共同尾部损失与预期收益AI 解读

We develop an expected shortfall factor model (ESFM) to estimate and price common variation in the severity of lower-tail losses in large panels of asset returns. Mean factor models describe common variation in average returns, while quantile factor models describe common movements in tail thresholds. ESFM instead captures common variation in the average severity of losses below those thresholds. The model combines observed risk exposures with latent common factors. We…

用于企业生存预测的高维删失 MIDAS 逻辑回归AI 解读

This paper addresses the challenge of forecasting corporate distress, a problem marked by three key statistical hurdles: (i) right censoring, (ii) high-dimensional predictors, and (iii) mixed-frequency data. To overcome these complexities, we introduce a novel high-dimensional censored MIDAS (Mixed Data Sampling) logistic regression. Our approach handles censoring through inverse probability weighting and achieves accurate estimation with numerous mixed-frequency predictors…

条件期望分位数的估计风险AI 解读

We establish the consistency and asymptotic normality of a two-step estimator of conditional expectiles in the context of conditional scale models. We first estimate the conditional variance parameters by quasi-maximum likelihood and then compute the unconditional expectile of the innovations using the empirical distribution of the standardized residuals. We show how replacing true innovations with standardized residuals affects the asymptotic variances of both conditional…

非流动性风险值AI 解读

Market efficiency relies fundamentally on stable liquidity. Consequently, forecasting liquidity dynamics is a priority for both investors and regulators. We introduce a new tail-risk metric, Illiquidity-at-Risk (IlliQaR), designed to quantify the magnitude of extreme liquidity dry-ups. Relying upon the realized Amihud (a precise illiquidity measurement derived from high-frequency data as the ratio of realized volatility to trading volume) we assess the predictive power of…

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,…

一般条件下极端事件因果效应的识别与推断AI 解读

Understanding the propagation of extreme events is important in many economic and environmental applications, yet most econometric methods for causal inference focus on average effects rather than tail behavior. This paper studies the identification of causal relations in extremes and derives resulting estimators and their asymptotic inference. As measure of causal dependence between extreme realizations of variables, we analyze the asymptotic behavior of the Causal Tail…

分位数估计的补偿模型及其在 VaR 中的应用AI 解读

Unlike the standard two-step workflow of estimating a time series distribution and extracting quantiles from it, this paper proposes a compensatory model to refine quantile estimates based on an existing fitted distribution. We embed a new penalty term in the model and theoretically characterize its ability to bound realized coverage errors, yielding an adaptive quantile estimator. Backtests on the S&P 500 and NASDAQ Composite show that the compensatory model substantially…

网络上的多尺度动态依赖估计AI 解读

In many settings, observed multivariate time series are often nonstationary in nature, i.e., their second order properties vary over time. An additional feature is that their cross-channel dependencies are structured by an underlying network. Together, they give rise to complex interactions between temporal dynamics and network topology. We propose Locally Stationary Wavelet processes on Networks (Net-LSW), a new framework for modelling multiscale, time-varying dependencies…

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…

算法交易策略的流动性审计AI 解读

We show that net demand for liquidity by algo strategies is identifiable from its trade and price history alone, with no knowledge of its signal or optimization problem. An exact multi-period regret decomposition implies that the sign of this statistic classifies a linear strategy as a net liquidity consumer or provider, recovering the Kyle (1985) informed-trader/market-maker dichotomy from observables alone. Under an AR(1) cost process, the same statistic equals the product…
