因子模型结构变化的似然比检验AI 解读

A factor model with a break in its factor loadings is observationally equivalent to a model without changes in the loadings but a change in the variance of its factors. This effectively transforms a structural change problem of high dimension into a problem of low dimension. This paper considers the likelihood ratio (LR) test for a variance change in the estimated factors. The LR test implicitly explores a special feature of the estimated factors: the pre-break and…

格点高维随机场的一般时空因子模型AI 解读

Motivated by the need for analysing large spatio-temporal panel data, we introduce a novel dimensionality reduction methodology for $n$-dimensional random fields observed across a number $S$ spatial locations and $T$ time periods. We call it General Spatio-Temporal Factor Model (GSTFM). First, we provide the probabilistic and mathematical underpinning needed for the representation of a random field as the sum of two components: the common component (driven by a small number $q$…

时间序列充分降维的傅里叶方法AI 解读

Dimensionality reduction has always been one of the most significant and challenging problems in the analysis of high-dimensional data. In the context of time series analysis, our focus is on the estimation and inference of conditional mean and variance functions. By using central mean and variance dimension reduction subspaces that preserve sufficient information about the response, one can effectively estimate the unknown mean and variance functions of the time series.…

基于简单函数之和的贝叶斯非线性回归AI 解读

This paper proposes a new Bayesian machine learning model that can be applied to large datasets arising in macroeconomics. Our framework sums over many simple two-component location mixtures. The transition between components is determined by a logistic function that depends on a single threshold variable and two hyperparameters. Each of these individual models only accounts for a minor portion of the variation in the endogenous variables. But many of them are capable of…

不依赖维度选择的变点检测AI 解读

Change point testing for high-dimensional data has attracted a lot of attention in statistics and machine learning owing to the emergence of high-dimensional data with structural breaks from many fields. In practice, when the dimension is less than the sample size but is not small, it is often unclear whether a method that is tailored to high-dimensional data or simply a classical method that is developed and justified for low-dimensional data is preferred. In addition, the…

时间序列预测：利用分数差分保留长期依赖AI 解读

This study introduces a novel forecasting strategy that leverages the power of fractional differencing (FD) to capture both short- and long-term dependencies in time series data. Unlike traditional integer differencing methods, FD preserves memory in series while stabilizing it for modeling purposes. By applying FD to financial data from the SPY index and incorporating sentiment analysis from news reports, this empirical analysis explores the effectiveness of FD in…

非线性网络自回归AI 解读

We study general nonlinear models for time series networks of integer and continuous valued data. The vector of high dimensional responses, measured on the nodes of a known network, is regressed non-linearly on its lagged value and on lagged values of the neighboring nodes by employing a smooth link function. We study stability conditions for such multivariate process and develop quasi maximum likelihood inference when the network dimension is increasing. In addition, we…

网络时间序列的新工具及其在新冠住院数据中的应用AI 解读

Network time series are becoming increasingly important across many areas in science and medicine and are often characterised by a known or inferred underlying network structure, which can be exploited to make sense of dynamic phenomena that are often high-dimensional. For example, the Generalised Network Autoregressive (GNAR) models exploit such structure parsimoniously. We use the GNAR framework to introduce two association measures: the network and partial network…

高维线性时间序列的监督因子建模AI 解读

Motivated by Tucker tensor decomposition, this paper imposes low-rank structures to the column and row spaces of coefficient matrices in a multivariate infinite-order vector autoregression (VAR), which leads to a supervised factor model with two factor modelings being conducted to responses and predictors simultaneously. Interestingly, the stationarity condition implies an intrinsic weak group sparsity mechanism of infinite-order VAR, and hence a rank-constrained group Lasso…

采用多元混合分布的一阶多元整数值自回归模型AI 解读

The univariate integer-valued time series has been extensively studied, but literature on multivariate integer-valued time series models is quite limited and the complex correlation structure among the multivariate integer-valued time series is barely discussed. In this study, we proposed a first-order multivariate integer-valued autoregressive model to characterize the correlation among multivariate integer-valued time series with higher flexibility. Under the general…

捕捉潜在波动信息的分解集成时间序列预测框架AI 解读

Time series forecasting represents a significant and challenging task across various fields. Recently, methods based on mode decomposition have dominated the forecasting of complex time series because of the advantages of capturing local characteristics and extracting intrinsic modes from data. Unfortunately, most models fail to capture the implied volatilities that contain significant information. To enhance the prediction of contemporary diverse and complex time series, we…

高维 VAR(k) 协整检验的渐近理论AI 解读

The paper studies nonstationary high-dimensional vector autoregressions of order $k$, VAR($k$). Additional deterministic terms such as trend or seasonality are allowed. The number of time periods, $T$, and the number of coordinates, $N$, are assumed to be large and of the same order. Under this regime the first-order asymptotics of the Johansen likelihood ratio (LR), Pillai-Bartlett, and Hotelling-Lawley tests for cointegration are derived: the test statistics converge to…

计数时间序列的条件均值乘法算子模型AI 解读

Multiplicative error models (MEMs) are commonly used for real-valued time series, but they cannot be applied to discrete-valued count time series as the involved multiplication would not preserve the integer nature of the data. Thus, the concept of a multiplicative operator for counts is proposed (as well as several specific instances thereof), which are then used to develop a kind of MEMs for count time series (CMEMs). If equipped with a linear conditional mean, the…

利用众多指标进行时间序列频率分解：DisaggregateTS 软件包概览AI 解读

Low-frequency time-series (e.g., quarterly data) are often treated as benchmarks for interpolating to higher frequencies, since they generally exhibit greater precision and accuracy in contrast to their high-frequency counterparts (e.g., monthly data) reported by governmental bodies. An array of regression-based methods have been proposed in the literature which aim to estimate a target high-frequency series using higher frequency indicators. However, in the era of big data…

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…

计算高效且适应稀疏性的变点估计AI 解读

We propose a new, computationally efficient, sparsity adaptive changepoint estimator for detecting changes in unknown subsets of a high-dimensional data sequence. Assuming the data sequence is Gaussian, we prove that the new method successfully estimates the number and locations of changepoints with a given error rate and under minimal conditions, for all sparsities of the changing subset. Moreover, our method has computational complexity linear up to logarithmic factors in…

集合输运平滑：第一部分，统一框架AI 解读

Smoothers are algorithms for Bayesian time series re-analysis. Most operational smoothers rely either on affine Kalman-type transformations or on sequential importance sampling. These strategies occupy opposite ends of a spectrum that trades computational efficiency and scalability for statistical generality and consistency: non-Gaussianity renders affine Kalman updates inconsistent with the true Bayesian solution, while the ensemble size required for successful importance…

多元圆周时间序列的成对 circula 建模AI 解读

Modelling multivariate circular time series is considered. The cross-sectional and serial dependence is described by circulas, which are analogs of copulas for circular distributions. In order to obtain a simple expression of the dependence structure, we decompose a multivariate circula density to a product of several pair circula densities. Moreover, to reduce the number of pair circula densities, we consider strictly stationary multi-order Markov processes. The real data…

利用树型合成函数组合预测密度AI 解读

Bayesian predictive synthesis (BPS) provides a method for combining multiple predictive distributions based on agent/expert opinion analysis theory and encompasses a range of existing density forecast pooling methods. The key ingredient in BPS is a ``synthesis'' function. This is typically specified parametrically as a dynamic linear regression. In this paper, we develop a nonparametric treatment of the synthesis function using regression trees. We show the advantages of our…

利用时变偏度随机波动模型刻画与预测宏观经济风险AI 解读

Monitoring downside risk and upside risk to the key macroeconomic indicators is critical for effective policymaking aimed at maintaining economic stability. In this paper I propose a parametric framework for modelling and forecasting macroeconomic risk based on stochastic volatility models with Skew-Normal and Skew-t shocks featuring time varying skewness. Exploiting a mixture stochastic representation of the Skew-Normal and Skew-t random variables, in the paper I develop…

利用自助样本协方差矩阵检验高维因子模型的共同因子数AI 解读

This paper studies the impact of bootstrap procedure on the eigenvalue distributions of the sample covariance matrix under a high-dimensional factor structure. We provide asymptotic distributions for the top eigenvalues of bootstrapped sample covariance matrix under mild conditions. After bootstrap, the spiked eigenvalues which are driven by common factors will converge weakly to Gaussian limits after proper scaling and centralization. However, the largest non-spiked…

多重时滞离散时间马尔可夫切换模型的最大似然推断AI 解读

Autoregressive Markov switching (ARMS) time series models are used to represent real-world signals whose dynamics may change over time. They have found application in many areas of the natural and social sciences, as well as in engineering. In general, inference in this kind of systems involves two problems: (a) detecting the number of distinct dynamical models that the signal may adopt and (b) estimating any unknown parameters in these models. In this paper, we introduce a…

Bell 整数值 GARCH 模型AI 解读

Integer-valued time series exist widely in economics, finance, biology, computer science, medicine, insurance, and many other fields. In recent years, many types of models have been proposed to model integer-valued time series data, in which the integer autoregressive model and integer-valued GARCH model are the most representative. Although there have been many results of integer-valued time series data, the parameters of integer-valued time series model structure are more…

多尺度非平稳因果结构学习AI 解读

This paper addresses a gap in the current state of the art by providing a solution for modeling causal relationships that evolve over time and occur at different time scales. Specifically, we introduce the multiscale non-stationary directed acyclic graph (MN-DAG), a framework for modeling multivariate time series data. Our contribution is twofold. Firstly, we expose a probabilistic generative model by leveraging results from spectral and causality theories. Our model allows…
