自适应 Lasso 解路径单位根检验的自助法改进AI 解读

We propose sieve wild bootstrap analogues to the adaptive Lasso solution path unit root tests of Arnold and Reinschlüssel (2024) arXiv:2404.06205 to improve finite sample properties and extend their applicability to a generalised framework, allowing for non-stationary volatility. Numerical evidence shows the bootstrap to improve the tests' precision for error processes that promote spurious rejections of the unit root null, depending on the detrending procedure. The…

We show that the activation knot of a potentially non-stationary regressor on the adaptive Lasso solution path in autoregressions can be leveraged for selection-free inference about a unit root. The resulting test has asymptotic power against local alternatives in $1/T$ neighbourhoods, unlike post-selection inference methods based on consistent model selection. Exploiting the information enrichment principle devised by Reinschlüssel and Arnold (arXiv:2402.16580 [stat.ME]) to…

利用信息增强自适应 Lasso 选择平稳与非平稳自回归模型AI 解读

We propose a novel approach to elicit the weight of a potentially non-stationary regressor in the consistent and oracle-efficient estimation of autoregressive models using the adaptive Lasso. The enhanced weight builds on a statistic that exploits distinct orders in probability of the OLS estimator in time series regressions when the degree of integration differs. We provide theoretical results on the benefit of our approach for detecting stationarity when a tuning criterion…

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…

高维 Ornstein–Uhlenbeck 过程漂移项的稀疏估计AI 解读

We study sparsity-regularized maximum likelihood estimation for the drift parameter of high-dimensional non-stationary Ornstein--Uhlenbeck processes given repeated measurements of i.i.d. paths. In particular, we show that Lasso and Slope estimators can achieve the minimax optimal rate of convergence. We exhibit numerical experiments for sparse estimation methods and show their performance.

We propose a dynamic multiplicative factor model for process data arising from complex problem-solving items, an emerging type of data in large-scale educational assessment. The proposed model can be viewed as an extension of the classical frailty models developed in survival analysis for multivariate recurrent event times, but with two important distinctions: (i) the factor (frailty) is of primary interest; (ii) covariates are internal and embedded in the factor. It allows…

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…

多维速度变化检测中惩罚最大似然估计的一致性AI 解读

We establish statistical consistency for the penalized maximum-likelihood estimator underlying CPLASS, a method for detecting changes in velocity in $d$-dimensional time-series data. The signal is modeled as a continuous piecewise-linear trajectory observed with independent Gaussian noise. Unlike classical change-in-mean models, continuity across adjacent segments couples their parameters and prevents direct application of standard segmentation arguments. Under compact…

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…

通过条件中心化进行非线性 Granger 因果的 RKHS 推断AI 解读

Granger causality is commonly formulated through linear prediction in vector autoregressive models, limiting its ability to detect nonlinear predictive relationships. We propose a reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS)-based test for nonlinear Granger non-causality in conditional mean for nonlinear autoregressive processes. The key idea is a conditional-centering decomposition of the target regression function into an own-history component and an orthogonal component…

用于因果推断与模型发现的连续时间集合 Kalman–Bucy 平滑器AI 解读

Data assimilation (DA) integrates observational information with model predictions to improve state estimation in complex systems. While filtering provides the basis for online forecasts by using only past and present observations, it can exhibit delays and biases when the underlying dynamics evolve rapidly or undergo regime transitions. Smoothing, which additionally incorporates future observations, provides a natural pipeline for hindcasting and reanalysis that yields an…

高维非平稳时间序列中多个同时变点的检测AI 解读

This paper studies the detection of multiple simultaneous (systematic) change points for high-dimensional nonstantionary economic and financial time series data. The analytic framework used is based on the standard and adaptive fused group lasso method, where the mixed L_{2,1} penalty is either uniform or re-weighted by data-dependent weights. This paper shows that, under appropriate conditions, this approach is L_2 consistent and, by adopting the data-dependent weights,…

拟最大似然断点估计的锐信噪比阈值AI 解读

We establish a sharp pathwise signal-to-noise criterion for quasi-maximum-likelihood (QML) estimation of a dominant breakpoint in the second-moment structure of a multivariate time series: the QML estimator is consistent whenever the between-regime contrast exceeds the within-regime fluctuation by an explicit factor, and below this threshold global recovery can fail. Two innovations drive the result. First, the framework is pathwise: no stochastic model is imposed on the…

具有结构化收缩与持续性先验的贝叶斯广义网络自回归模型AI 解读

We propose a Bayesian generalized network autoregressive (BGNAR) model for multivariate time series whose component series are associated with the nodes of a known network. The proposed framework combines the parsimonious network structure of the generalized network autoregressive (GNAR) model with structured shrinkage and persistence priors adapted from Bayesian vector autoregressive (BVAR) modeling. We adapt Minnesota-type shrinkage to both own-lag and network-lag…

用于检测时间序列依赖结构变点的量子互信息统计量AI 解读

Detecting when the dependence between two components of a multivariate time series changes, while the marginals drift freely, requires a dependence-specific statistic. We take the inferential object to be a density operator -- the trace-normalised second moment of unit-norm random Fourier features of ranks -- rather than a probability distribution. Partial traces recover the marginal operators exactly, so von Neumann entropies yield a quantum mutual information (QMI)…

用于高维概率电价预测的在线多变量正则化分布回归AI 解读

Probabilistic electricity price forecasting (PEPF) is vital for short-term electricity markets, yet the multivariate nature of day-ahead prices - spanning 24 consecutive hours - remains underexplored. At the same time, real-time decision-making requires methods that are both accurate and fast. We introduce an online algorithm for multivariate distributional regression models, allowing efficient modeling of the conditional means, variances, and dependence structures of…

用于非线性时间序列的贝叶斯分位数深度回声状态网络AI 解读

Conditional quantiles are central to asymmetric decision losses, tail-risk assessment, and interval forecasts, but Bayesian quantile regression for nonlinear time series can be difficult when the temporal feature vector is high-dimensional. We develop the quantile deep echo state network (Q-DESN), a Bayesian quantile regression model conditional on fixed features generated by a deep echo state network. Conditional on a specified reservoir construction and feature map,…

高维 Lévy 驱动 OU 过程的低秩与稀疏漂移估计AI 解读

We study drift estimation for discretely observed high-dimensional Lévy-driven Ornstein--Uhlenbeck processes when the drift admits a low-rank-plus-sparse approximation. A localized, increment-truncated pseudo-likelihood is regularized by nuclear and entrywise $\ell_1$ norms. A weighted joint-cone argument and restricted cancellation condition yield non-asymptotic Frobenius oracle inequalities for exact and approximate structure. The stochastic complexity is $rd+s\log d$,…

广义岭回归与卷积LASSOAI 解读

We derive the complete duality theory underlying the Hodrick--Prescott filter, whose rank-deficient second-difference penalty admits infinitely many equivalent trend representations via generalized inverses. Constructing two canonical choices---the Moore--Penrose-based \emph{B-representation} and an alternative \emph{A-representation}---we prove that the extracted trend is invariant across representations, obtain a closed-form Bregman-type divergence quantifying their…

通过惩罚最小二乘实现一步式分组因子分析AI 解读

In this article, we revisit the problem of group factor analysis and propose a one-step penalized least squares method to estimate the factor loadings and factors in large-dimensional group factor models, offering a distinct alternative to the conventional two-step principal component approach. Our procedure originates from the equivalence between the group factor structure and the carefully tailored identification conditions. Leveraging this insight, we develop a tricky…

处理—混杂反馈下电力需求的边际结构模型与连续处理自适应 LASSOAI 解读

Temperature is the most important meteorological driver of electricity demand, but its causal effect has not been estimated under the time-varying confounding that characterizes weather processes. Current temperature is associated with weather conditions, including precipitation, snow cover, and cloud cover, that also influence electricity demand, and past temperature shapes future weather, producing treatment-confounder feedback under which standard regression adjustment is…

正则化高维加性张量自回归模型AI 解读

High-dimensional time series has diverse applications in econometrics and finance. Recent models for capturing temporal dependence have employed a bilinear representation for matrix time series, or the Tucker-decomposition based representation in case of tensor time series. A Tucker-decomposition based temporal effect is difficult to interpret on many occasions, along with its computational complexity due to the non-convex nature of the underlying optimization problem.…

高维矩阵时间序列主效应因子模型的识别与稀疏性AI 解读

We propose a general identification framework for main effect factor models for matrix-valued time series. The classical sum-to-zero restriction on the row and column main effects is replaced by a broad class of shift-varying functions, which includes weighted averages, quantiles, and reference-unit anchors as special cases. We prove that the shift-varying property is necessary and sufficient for parameter identification, and we derive closed-form estimators under minimal…

学习宏观经济语言AI 解读

We show how state-of-the-art large language models (LLMs) can be trained effectively on limited historical data for macroeconomic forecasting. We estimate a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) model with stochastic volatility and Student-t shocks on an initial segment of the data to obtain a posterior distribution over structural parameters. We sample from this posterior to generate millions of theory-consistent synthetic panels that, when mixed with macroeconomic…
