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…

超变分方法：基于新息自动调优混合协方差矩阵参数的通用技术AI 解读

The Hybrid forecast covariance model is an operationally successful way to build a background error covariance matrix. It is constructed as a weighted sum, with scalar weights, of the climatological covariance matrix and a localized ensemble covariance matrix, with a localization matrix typically depending on a localization length. For best performance, the Hybrid needs to be optimized by tuning those weights and, possibly, other parameters, such as the localization length.…

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…

用循环神经网络预测自回归非因果过程AI 解读

This paper examines the use of recurrent neural networks and their extensions for forecasting autoregressive causal-noncausal processes, characterized by local explosive patterns such as bubbles and spikes. We study the recurrent neural networks (RNN), long short-term memory networks (LSTM), gated recurrent unit (GRU), bidirectional LSTM, and also a simple feed-forward network (FNN) to reveal the difficulty of forecasting extreme values depending on the type of network and…

循环重心编码器：预测、模拟及其在时间序列分析中的应用AI 解读

This dissertation has two parts. In the first part we theoretically develop a framework that extends the optimal transport barycenter problem from independent data with observed covariates to processes whose relevant covariate is their own history. Given a stationary stochastic process, our framework shows there exists an invertible transport map that extracts from it an iid component whose distribution is the barycenter of the conditional distributions of the input process…

协整回归变量：折叠凹惩罚何时超越 LASSOAI 解读

LASSO is one of the most popular regularization methods for high-dimensional regression models. While cointegration is common in practical applications of predictive regressions with many regressors, the convex penalty of LASSO overly suppresses the coefficients of cointegrated regressors and therefore fails to deliver consistent parameter estimation. We employ folded concave penalties (FCP), including the well-known SCAD and MCP, to address this issue. Using FCP, we…

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…

存在结构不稳定时因子增广回归模型的滚动窗口选择AI 解读

The paper develops a theory for selecting the rolling window when generating out-of-sample forecasts with factor-augmented regression (FAR) models in the presence of structural instabilities. It shows how to select a rolling window by minimizing the conditional mean squared forecast error (MSFE) while accounting for uncertainty in factor estimation. Because the conditional MSFE is unobserved and the factors are latent, this paper proposes a feasible version of the criterion…

基于深度可分离神经网络的混频时间序列预测AI 解读

To better forecast mixed-frequency time series, it is the key to choose a suitable way for frequency alignment. However, the existing methods are all limited to linear transformations, and this may overlook the possible nonlinearity, leading to a worse prediction. We alternatively consider a deep neural network for each frequency alignment, and hence a depth-separable neural network. Moreover, a parameter-sharing mechanism is adopted across the alignment at each stage,…

标量对函数回归中的函数型预测变量选择与平滑系数估计AI 解读

In the framework of scalar-on-function regression models, in which several functional variables are employed to predict a scalar response, we propose a methodology for selecting relevant functional predictors while simultaneously providing accurate smooth (or, more generally, regular) estimates of the functional coefficients. We suppose that the functional predictors belong to a real separable Hilbert space, while the functional coefficients belong to a specific subspace of…

跨空间时间序列的预测驱动推断AI 解读

The following motif is common in spatiotemporal settings: we have a sequence of covariate and label pairs observed for a relatively short, recent time period. We have access to unlabeled covariates over a longer time period. Data is observed over many spatial locations. For instance, crop yield might be observed over a large geographical area for recent years, but weather data (which is informative about crop yield) is available for a much longer period. The goal is to…

藤Copula VAR：从递归边际估计到联合预测推断AI 解读

Joint-event forecasts often combine a dependence estimate based on past forecast errors with newly estimated marginal distributions. When each historical error retains the marginal fit available at its issue date, inference must account for an overlapping sequence of estimation errors. We derive their joint influence with the terminal forecast estimates in a stable Vine Copula VAR with normal innovation margins and a fixed, correctly specified Gaussian or positive Clayton…

通过正交化自适应估计发现存在混杂的时间序列因果滞后结构AI 解读

Finding which variables cause which others in multivariate time series, and at what lags, is central to science and policy, yet existing methods force a choice between flexible confounder adjustment, data-driven lag selection, and inference that controls the false discovery rate (FDR). ORACLE-VARX does all three in one pipeline. First, double/debiased machine learning (DML) removes nonlinear confounder effects from the outcomes and the lagged series. Second, adaptive causal…

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…

具有个性化多样性的个性化联邦向量自回归AI 解读

Personalized federated learning can improve estimation for high-dimensional time series while preserving client-specific dynamics. However, parameter heterogeneity creates a fundamental ambiguity between shared and personalized structure. We introduce the principle of personalization diversity, under which genuinely personalized effects recur in only a limited fraction of clients. Based on this principle, we propose PerFeCT-VAR, Personalized Federated Vector Autoregression…

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…

部分观测时间序列的潜变量驱动插补与预测：LIFTSAI 解读

Partially observed multivariate time series pose two coupled challenges: recovering missing measurements and forecasting future trajectories when observation patterns are informative. Existing methods often assume ignorable missingness or use the mask only as an auxiliary input. We propose LIFTS (Latent-driven Imputation and Forecasting for partly observed Time Series), a probabilistic framework in which a latent process jointly governs the complete measurement trajectory…

混合模型的 Whittle 似然及其地下水位时间序列应用AI 解读

Understanding the processes that influence groundwater levels is crucial for forecasting and responding to hazards such as groundwater droughts. Mixed models, which combine a fixed mean, expressed using independent predictors, with autocorrelated random errors, are used for inference, forecasting and filling in missing values in groundwater level time series. Estimating parameters of mixed models using maximum likelihood has high computational complexity. For large datasets,…

高效时间序列保形预测区间：在线 PID 专家聚合AI 解读

For a given point forecaster, proportional-integral-derivative (PID) calibration configurations can attain similar overall coverage yet produce different interval widths. We introduce PID-Expert, an online aggregation method for improving the efficiency of conformal prediction intervals for time series. PID-Expert combines thresholds from a fixed library of PID calibrators, each evolving under its own coverage feedback. Aggregation weights depend on normalized interval width…

利用路径签名回归进行即时预测AI 解读

We introduce a new method of nowcasting using regression on path signatures. Path signatures capture the geometric properties of sequential data. Because signatures embed observations in continuous time, they naturally handle mixed frequencies and missing data. We prove theoretically, and demonstrate with simulations, that regression on signatures both subsumes the linear Kalman filter and has desirable consistency properties. Nowcasting with signatures is more robust to…

预测比较中的不确定性量化AI 解读

Skill scores, which measure the relative improvement of a forecasting method over a benchmark via consistent scoring functions and proper scoring rules, are a standard tool in forecast evaluation, yet their sampling uncertainty is rarely rigorously quantified. With modern forecasting applications being increasingly multivariate and involving evaluations across multiple horizons, variables, spatial locations, and forecasting methods, standard tools like the pairwise…

基础模型还是经典模型？TimesFM-3 与经典时间序列模型的模拟比较AI 解读

Time-series foundation models such as Google's TimesFM-3 forecast series they were never trained on, but whether they should replace classical methods such as ARIMA and exponential smoothing is hard to settle on public benchmarks, because few benchmark datasets are absent from every model's pre-training corpus. This exploratory study compares TimesFM-3 with classical methods on data generated from nine known processes, which the model cannot have seen. Across 7200 series and…

时间序列基础模型的潜在推理时引导AI 解读

Time Series Foundation Models (TSFMs) currently provide state-of-the-art results in forecasting tasks. They are available out-of-the-box and rely on in-context learning to make their predictions, which makes the quality of their performance highly sensitive to the user-selected lookback, covariates, horizon and training data distributions. In practise, the quality of the forecasts are variable but complementary, which highlights the need for a principled ensembling approach,…

欧元区货币政策传导是否存在不对称性？AI 解读

We answer the question posed in the title with a nonlinear mixed-frequency vector autoregression, estimated with Bayesian additive regression trees. The model combines monthly macro-financial variables with quarterly bank lending survey data, and identifies the dynamic responses from high-frequency policy surprises. Sign asymmetry dominates; a tightening produces monetary policy transmission mostly in line with the theoretical predictions, whereas easing of any size produces…
