带鞅差误差的因子模型的预测表现AI 解读

This paper analyses the forecasting performance of a new class of factor models with martingale difference errors (FMMDE) recently introduced by Lee and Shao (2018). The FMMDE makes it possible to retrieve a transformation of the original series so that the resulting variables can be partitioned according to whether they are conditionally mean-independent with respect to past information. We contribute to the literature in two respects. First, we propose a novel methodology…

具有共同响应与预测因子的高维向量自回归AI 解读

The reduced-rank vector autoregressive (VAR) model can be interpreted as a supervised factor model, where two factor modelings are simultaneously applied to response and predictor spaces. This article introduces a new model, called vector autoregression with common response and predictor factors, to explore further the common structure between the response and predictors in the VAR framework. The new model can provide better physical interpretations and improve estimation…

因子增强的树集成模型AI 解读

This manuscript proposes to extend the information set of time-series regression trees with latent stationary factors extracted via state-space methods. In doing so, this approach generalises time-series regression trees on two dimensions. First, it allows to handle predictors that exhibit measurement error, non-stationary trends, seasonality and/or irregularities such as missing observations. Second, it gives a transparent way for using domain-specific theory to inform…

利用基于 Copula 的协方差检验任意分布数据的独立性与随机性AI 解读

In this article, we study tests of independence for data with arbitrary distributions in the non-serial case, i.e., for independent and identically distributed random vectors, as well as in the serial case, i.e., for time series. These tests are derived from copula-based covariances and their multivariate extensions using Möbius transforms. We find the asymptotic distributions of these statistics under the null hypothesis of independence or randomness, as well as under…

用于时间序列分析的闭环 Volterra 方法AI 解读

The main focus of this paper is to approximate time series data based on the closed-loop Volterra series representation. Volterra series expansions are a valuable tool for representing, analyzing, and synthesizing nonlinear dynamical systems. However, a major limitation of this approach is that as the order of the expansion increases, the number of terms that need to be estimated grows exponentially, posing a considerable challenge. This paper considers a practical solution…

北极海冰固定目标预测的评估与比较：滑行图、特征工程回归及机器学习AI 解读

We use "glide charts" (plots of sequences of root mean squared forecast errors as the target date is approached) to evaluate and compare fixed-target forecasts of Arctic sea ice. We first use them to evaluate the simple feature-engineered linear regression (FELR) forecasts of Diebold and Goebel (2021), and to compare FELR forecasts to naive pure-trend benchmark forecasts. Then we introduce a much more sophisticated feature-engineered machine learning (FEML) model, and we use…

连接频率学派与贝叶斯变点方法AI 解读

We show that the two-stage minimum description length (MDL) criterion widely used to estimate linear change-point (CP) models corresponds to the marginal likelihood of a Bayesian model with a specific class of prior distributions. This allows results from the frequentist and Bayesian paradigms to be bridged together. Thanks to this link, one can rely on the consistency of the number and locations of the estimated CPs and the computational efficiency of frequentist methods,…

矩阵 GARCH 模型：推断与应用AI 解读

Matrix-variate time series data are largely available in applications. However, no attempt has been made to study their conditional heteroskedasticity that is often observed in economic and financial data. To address this gap, we propose a novel matrix generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (GARCH) model to capture the dynamics of conditional row and column covariance matrices of matrix time series. The key innovation of the matrix GARCH model is the use…

非线性自回归模型的自助法预测推断AI 解读

The non-linear autoregressive (NLAR) model plays an important role in modeling and predicting time series. One-step ahead prediction is straightforward using the NLAR model, but the multi-step ahead prediction is cumbersome. For instance, iterating the one-step ahead predictor is a convenient strategy for linear autoregressive (LAR) models, but it is suboptimal under NLAR. In this paper, we first propose a simulation and/or bootstrap algorithm to construct optimal point…

切换自回归低秩张量模型AI 解读

An important problem in time-series analysis is modeling systems with time-varying dynamics. Probabilistic models with joint continuous and discrete latent states offer interpretable, efficient, and experimentally useful descriptions of such data. Commonly used models include autoregressive hidden Markov models (ARHMMs) and switching linear dynamical systems (SLDSs), each with its own advantages and disadvantages. ARHMMs permit exact inference and easy parameter estimation,…

低树秩贝叶斯向量自回归模型AI 解读

Vector autoregression has been widely used for modeling and analysis of multivariate time series data. In high-dimensional settings, model parameter regularization schemes inducing sparsity yield interpretable models and achieved good forecasting performance. However, in many data applications, such as those in neuroscience, the Granger causality graph estimates from existing vector autoregression methods tend to be quite dense and difficult to interpret, unless one…

用于计数时间序列的变换型动态线性模型AI 解读

Dynamic Linear Models (DLMs) are commonly employed for time series analysis due to their versatile structure, simple recursive updating, ability to handle missing data, and probabilistic forecasting. However, the options for count time series are limited: Gaussian DLMs require continuous data, while Poisson-based alternatives often lack sufficient modeling flexibility. We introduce a novel semiparametric methodology for count time series by warping a Gaussian DLM. The…

基于Cornish–Fisher展开的条件方差、偏度与峰度分位数估计AI 解读

The conditional variance, skewness, and kurtosis play a central role in time series analysis. These three conditional moments (CMs) are often studied by some parametric models but with two big issues: the risk of model mis-specification and the instability of model estimation. To avoid the above two issues, this paper proposes a novel method to estimate these three CMs by the so-called quantiled CMs (QCMs). The QCM method first adopts the idea of Cornish-Fisher expansion to…

基于迭代Huber回归的大维矩阵时间序列稳健统计推断AI 解读

Matrix factor model is drawing growing attention for simultaneous two-way dimension reduction of well-structured matrix-valued observations. This paper focuses on robust statistical inference for matrix factor model in the ``diverging dimension" regime. We derive the convergence rates of the robust estimators for loadings, factors and common components under finite second moment assumption of the idiosyncratic errors. In addition, the asymptotic distributions of the…

时变波动率下泡沫日期估计精度的改进AI 解读

In this study, we consider a four-regime bubble model under the assumption of time-varying volatility and propose the algorithm of estimating the break dates with volatility correction: First, we estimate the emerging date of the explosive bubble, its collapsing date, and the recovering date to the normal market under assumption of homoskedasticity; second, we collect the residuals and then employ the WLS-based estimation of the bubble dates. We demonstrate by Monte Carlo…

基于 U 统计量与依赖野生自助法的函数时间序列稳健变点检测AI 解读

The aim of this paper is to develop a change-point test for functional time series that uses the full functional information and is less sensitive to outliers compared to the classical CUSUM test. For this aim, the Wilcoxon two-sample test is generalized to functional data. To obtain the asymptotic distribution of the test statistic, we proof a limit theorem for a process of $U$-statistics with values in a Hilbert space under weak dependence. Critical values can be obtained…

分治动态规划：高维变点检测的近线性时间方法AI 解读

We develop a novel, general and computationally efficient framework, called Divide and Conquer Dynamic Programming (DCDP), for localizing change points in time series data with high-dimensional features. DCDP deploys a class of greedy algorithms that are applicable to a broad variety of high-dimensional statistical models and can enjoy almost linear computational complexity. We investigate the performance of DCDP in three commonly studied change point settings in high…

状态空间模型的高效变分近似AI 解读

Variational Bayes methods are a potential scalable estimation approach for state space models. However, existing methods are inaccurate or computationally infeasible for many state space models. This paper proposes a variational approximation that is accurate and fast for any model with a closed-form measurement density function and a state transition distribution within the exponential family of distributions. We show that our method can accurately and quickly estimate a…

面板数据模型中的深度神经网络估计AI 解读

In this paper we study neural networks and their approximating power in panel data models. We provide asymptotic guarantees on deep feed-forward neural network estimation of the conditional mean, building on the work of Farrell et al. (2021), and explore latent patterns in the cross-section. We use the proposed estimators to forecast the progression of new COVID-19 cases across the G7 countries during the pandemic. We find significant forecasting gains over both linear panel…

结合约束模型与 PMIME 度量的时间序列因果发现AI 解读

Causality defines the relationship between cause and effect. In multivariate time series field, this notion allows to characterize the links between several time series considering temporal lags. These phenomena are particularly important in medicine to analyze the effect of a drug for example, in manufacturing to detect the causes of an anomaly in a complex system or in social sciences... Most of the time, studying these complex systems is made through correlation only. But…

时间序列的序贯预测共形推断AI 解读

We present a new distribution-free conformal prediction algorithm for sequential data (e.g., time series), called the \textit{sequential predictive conformal inference} (\texttt{SPCI}). We specifically account for the nature that time series data are non-exchangeable, and thus many existing conformal prediction algorithms are not applicable. The main idea is to adaptively re-estimate the conditional quantile of non-conformity scores (e.g., prediction residuals), upon…

时变向量误差修正模型：估计与推断AI 解读

This paper considers a time-varying vector error-correction model that allows for different time series behaviours (e.g., unit-root and locally stationary processes) to interact with each other to co-exist. From practical perspectives, this framework can be used to estimate shifts in the predictability of non-stationary variables, test whether economic theories hold periodically, etc. We first develop a time-varying Granger Representation Theorem, which facilitates the…

非参数冲击下贝叶斯 VAR 的快速、变量排序不变推断AI 解读

The shocks which hit macroeconomic models such as Vector Autoregressions (VARs) have the potential to be non-Gaussian, exhibiting asymmetries and fat tails. This consideration motivates the VAR developed in this paper which uses a Dirichlet process mixture (DPM) to model the shocks. However, we do not follow the obvious strategy of simply modeling the VAR errors with a DPM since this would lead to computationally infeasible Bayesian inference in larger VARs and potentially a…

利用筛法自助法与动态更新预测日内金融时间序列AI 解读

Intraday financial data often take the form of a collection of curves that can be observed sequentially over time, such as intraday stock price curves. These curves can be viewed as a time series of functions observed on equally spaced and dense grids. Due to the curse of dimensionality, high-dimensional data poses challenges from a statistical aspect; however, it also provides opportunities to analyze a rich source of information so that the dynamic changes within…
