固定阶数 PCA：因子数量高估时的理论AI 解读

We develop asymptotic theory for principal component analysis (PCA) of a high-dimensional factor model in which the working dimension $R$ is fixed and only required to satisfy $R \ge r$, where $r$ is the true number of factors. Building on anisotropic local laws from random matrix theory, we show that the ``extra'' empirical eigencomponents beyond the $r$-th are asymptotically noise-governed, incoherent, and nearly orthogonal to the factor loadings. We introduce two…

时间序列中的动态局部平均处理效应AI 解读

This paper discusses identification, estimation, and inference on dynamic local average treatment effects (LATEs) in instrumental variables (IVs) settings. First, we show that compliers--observations whose treatment status is affected by the instrument--can be identified individually in time series data using smoothness assumptions and local comparisons of treatment assignments. Second, we show that this result enables not only better interpretability of IV estimates but…

流形值时间序列的黎曼因子模型AI 解读

We propose a Riemannian factor model (RFM), a novel framework for analyzing potentially high-dimensional time series data observed on Riemannian manifolds. Such time series are encountered in various applications, including economics, finance, medical imaging, and genomics and microbiome research. The proposed model is geometry-aware and accounts for the inherent nonlinearity in the data. In a high-dimensional asymptotic regime, where the manifold dimension is allowed to…

通过预过滤筛式自助法校正函数型时间序列长记忆估计偏差AI 解读

We investigate a bias correction procedure based on sieve bootstrapping to estimate the long-memory parameter d in stationary or nonstationary fractionally integrated processes. The resampling method implements a sieve bootstrap method on data prefiltered by a preliminary estimate of the long-memory parameter. For the initial estimate, we recommend the local polynomial Whittle with noise (LPWN) estimator in Frederiksen et al. (2012) to reduce bias, especially in the presence…

通过概率自上而下方法实现大型层级的端到端概率预测AI 解读

Retail and supply chain operations rely on demand forecasts to drive decisions, from replenishment at the product level to capacity planning at the store level. These forecasts should be probabilistic, to allow risk-aware decisions, and coherent across the aggregation hierarchy, so that decisions taken at different levels are not based on conflicting demand forecasts. Producing such forecasts is computationally demanding; at retail scale, with hierarchies of hundreds of…

时变相关性推断的渐近一致错误发现率控制AI 解读

Inference for locally stationary time series is challenging because the associated hypotheses form an uncountable collection over a continuous time interval, making pointwise false discovery rate (FDR) control inadequate for simultaneous statistical guarantees. We introduce a novel asymptotically uniform false discovery rate (AuFDR), defined as the expectation of the $L_r$-norm of the false discovery proportion (FDP) process where $r$ is allowed to diverge, to quantify and…

上确界型统计量的实质性变化自归一化推断AI 解读

We develop a selfnormalized approach to inference for relevant changes in functional time series measured by the supremum norm. The main difficulty is that the supremum norm is not Hadamard differentiable, so standard projection-based selfnormalization does not apply and the limiting distribution may depend on the geometry of the extremal set and the long-run covariance structure. We address this problem by replacing the supremum norm with a smooth log-sum-exp approximation…

用因果贝叶斯网络与赖欣巴赫原则重新审视格兰杰因果AI 解读

Granger causality (GC) is widely used to infer directed relationships in time-series data. However, its predictive criterion does not by itself distinguish direct causal effects from dependencies induced by common causes, indirect paths, collider conditioning, or model misspecification. We revisit this limitation by interpreting bivariate and multivariate GC through causal Bayesian networks and Reichenbachs common cause principles. Under explicit graphical assumptions,…

关键矿产投资中的能源与碳排放溢出：动态连通性方法AI 解读

Design/methodology/approach A time-varying parameter vector autoregression (TVP-VAR) model is employed to quantify dynamic connectedness and directional volatility spillovers using daily data from May 1, 2013, to May 2, 2023. The study isolates the impact of extreme events by splitting the data into pre- and post-COVID-19 samples based on the February 2020 stock market crash. Purpose This paper examines the daily financial risk spillovers associated with investing in…

用 BAND 缓解维度灾难：高维非参数分布估计AI 解读

Minimax-optimal rates for multivariate distribution estimation are known to suffer from the curse of dimensionality. We propose a sparse Bayesian network approach in which each conditional probability is estimated using sparsity-aware conditional mean methods. The resulting estimator, \textit{BAyesian Network Distribution regression} (BAND), handles mixed data types in high-dimensional time series and achieves polynomial total variation convergence rates while allowing the…

DoTime：干预与反事实时间序列的合成基准生成器AI 解读

Most benchmarks for causal inference over time series are observational, small, or domain-specific, leaving interventional and counterfactual estimation under-served exactly where it matters most, such as in healthcare, policy evaluation, and climate science. We introduce \textbf{DoTime}, an open, scalable, and theoretically grounded generator of multivariate temporal structural causal models (TSCMs) with interventions, released as the \code{dotime} PyPI package together…

exdqlm：灵活动态分位数线性模型估计与分析的 R 软件包AI 解读

We present the R package exdqlm for Bayesian quantile regression, with primary emphasis on dynamic state-space quantile models for time series. The package is built around extended dynamic quantile linear models (exDQLMs), which use the extended asymmetric Laplace (exAL) family, a parametric extension of the asymmetric Laplace (AL) distribution commonly used in quantile regression. The software provides posterior simulation via Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) and fast…

通过二维马尔可夫链构建长记忆 GARCH 模型AI 解读

This paper proposes a GARCH-type volatility model in which level-and-slope updates of a latent power-law kernel generate state-dependent decay of past shocks within a two-dimensional Markov state. We derive a joint Foster--Lyapunov condition and establish positive Harris recurrence and uniqueness of the invariant distribution. Simulations show substantial low-frequency persistence in log-squared innovations, especially near the diagnostic stability boundary. Empirically, the…

序列相关下的稳健双样本推断AI 解读

We propose robust inference for two-sample comparison with time-series data under serial dependence and heterogeneous long-run variances. Standardizing with orthonormal-basis (series HAR) projections, we develop two-sample t-tests and, for joint hypotheses on a vector of means, a series HAR Wald statistic. Because the increasing-K chi-square limit tends to over-reject, we propose Welch-type fixed-K t- and F-approximations with adjusted degrees of freedom. We further develop…

涌现的传播复杂性：区分机制复杂性与相关异质性AI 解读

Simple and complex contagions differ mechanistically; multiple exposures act synergistically in the latter but independently in the former. Yet correlated mixtures of simple contagions may appear complex when inferring global contagion rules, a phenomenon we call "emergent complexity." We present a measure of contagion complexity and an inferential framework for estimating mixtures of nonparametric contagion rules from time-series data. Our work reframes past studies on…

Causal-TS：高维与非平稳时间序列因果发现的 Python 库AI 解读

We describe Causal-TS, an open-source Python library for causal discovery in high-dimensional and nonstationary multivariate time series. Causal-TS provides four specialized algorithms-CDNOTS, CDNOTS+, CEDAR, and GRACE-along with wrappers for GES, Granger, LASSO-VAR, and LGES, all sharing a unified conditional independence (CI) test layer with GPU acceleration via PyTorch. A regime discovery pipeline detects structural breaks via pluggable changepoint detectors and runs…

随机时间序列回归模型中结构断点的非参数检测AI 解读

We propose a novel nonparametric test to detect structural breaks in the conditional mean and/or variance of a time series. Our method does not assume any specific parametric form for the dependence structure of the regressor, the time series model, or the distribution of the noise. This flexibility allows our algorithm to be applicable to a wide range of framework. We further apply the proposed test to accurately localize the changepoints and establish theoretical…

潜在分组可能无法分离时面板模型的稳健推断AI 解读

We develop robust inference methods for general linear hypotheses in linear panel data models with latent group structure in the coefficients. We employ a selective conditional inference approach based on the conditional distribution of coefficient estimates given the group structure estimated from the data. The resulting inference procedures remain valid even when group separation fails (i.e., when the distributional properties of the group-specific coefficients are not…

通过前向比值稳健估计自相关函数AI 解读

It is obvious to say that an adequate estimation of the autocorrelation function is central in time series analysis. In this paper, we propose three new robust estimators based on ratios of observations, which offer strong resistance against outliers. While the first estimator, which is based on the median, is not efficient, the second is a Quasi Maximum Likelihood (QML) estimator with better efficiency properties. The third estimator is a plug-in estimator, which does not…

实时宏观经济预测中的数据修订风险AI 解读

Macroeconomic forecasts refer to outcomes that are first released and then revised. A 90 percent interval for the first GDP release, a six-month value, or a latest-value benchmark is not the same uncertainty statement. We ask how revision risk evolves through the release cycle and what can be reported in real time when later-outcome errors are scarce. We decompose later-outcome MSE into preliminary forecast risk, revision risk, and their covariance. In SPF data,…

多元非平稳时间序列的自适应多尺度预测与门控局部共形预测AI 解读

We propose ABF-T-GLCP, a model-agnostic framework for forecasting and uncertainty quantification in nonstationary multivariate time series. The central idea is to learn an adaptive predictive state representation for point forecasting and reuse it for conformal calibration. The forecasting module combines horizon-specific temporal experts through a learned gate and refines predictions using sparse predictive transfer across related series. The uncertainty module,…

高维二元响应广义线性模型中的多重检验非线性提升AI 解读

This paper proposes a nonlinear boosting with multiple testing (BMT) approach to variable selection in high-dimensional generalised linear models with binary responses. At each stage of the BMT procedure, the model is updated by adding only the most significant covariate, conditional on those already selected in previous stages, while taking into account the multiple testing nature of the problem. It is shown that, under the stated conditions, the BMT procedure selects all…

高维变点检测的椭圆正则化Hotelling检验AI 解读

We propose an elliptical regularized Hotelling (ERHT) procedure for detecting location changes in high-dimensional sequences with heavy-tailed, cross-sectionally dependent observations. ERHT contrasts spatial medians on adjacent segments using a ridge-regularized inverse of the pooled centered spatial-sign covariance matrix, thereby combining robustness to radial variation with dependence-aware weighting. We establish Gaussian-process limits for the single- and…

复杂系统的推断极限：随机模型何时不可区分AI 解读

Robust inference for stochastic dynamical systems is often hampered by sparse sampling and the absence of closed-form likelihoods. We introduce a Monte Carlo path-inference framework that leverages full-path statistics and bridge processes to deliver reliable parameter estimation and model selection from coarsely sampled time series, without requiring analytical solutions. Crucially, we couple mechanistic stochastic models with their inference procedures to quantify how…
