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…

COVID-19期间美国股票指数表现预测：随机森林与LSTMAI 解读

The US stock market experienced instability following the recession (2007-2009). COVID-19 poses a significant challenge to US stock traders and investors. Traders and investors should keep up with the stock market. This is to mitigate risks and improve profits by using forecasting models that account for the effects of the pandemic. With consideration of the COVID-19 pandemic after the recession, two machine learning models, including Random Forest and LSTM are used to…

利用日内分解预测已实现波动率：预测协调方法AI 解读

We address the construction of Realized Variance (RV) forecasts by exploiting the hierarchical structure implicit in available decompositions of RV. By using data referred to the Dow Jones Industrial Average Index and to its constituents we show that exploiting the informative content of hierarchies improves the forecast accuracy. Forecasting performance is evaluated out-of-sample based on the empirical MSE and QLIKE criteria as well as using the Model Confidence Set…

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…

广义自回归得分树与森林AI 解读

We propose methods to improve the forecasts from generalized autoregressive score (GAS) models (Creal et. al, 2013; Harvey, 2013) by localizing their parameters using decision trees and random forests. These methods avoid the curse of dimensionality faced by kernel-based approaches, and allow one to draw on information from multiple state variables simultaneously. We apply the new models to four distinct empirical analyses, and in all applications the proposed new methods…

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…

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…

聚合曲线的层级预测及其在日前电价拍卖中的应用AI 解读

Aggregated curves are common structures in economics and finance, and the most prominent examples are supply and demand curves. In this study, we exploit the fact that all aggregated curves have an intrinsic hierarchical structure, and thus hierarchical reconciliation methods can be used to improve the forecast accuracy. We provide an in-depth theory on how aggregated curves can be constructed or deconstructed, and conclude that these methods are equivalent under weak…

北极海冰何时消失？面积、范围、厚度与体积的联合预测AI 解读

Rapidly diminishing Arctic summer sea ice is a strong signal of the pace of global climate change. We provide point, interval, and density forecasts for four measures of Arctic sea ice: area, extent, thickness, and volume. Importantly, we enforce the joint constraint that these measures must simultaneously arrive at an ice-free Arctic. We apply this constrained joint forecast procedure to models relating sea ice to atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration and models relating…

动态高斯图模型的变点检测：新冠疫情期间美国股市的依赖变化AI 解读

Reliable estimates of volatility and correlation are fundamental in economics and finance for understanding the impact of macroeconomics events on the market and guiding future investments and policies. Dependence across financial returns is likely to be subject to sudden structural changes, especially in correspondence with major global events, such as the COVID-19 pandemic. In this work, we are interested in capturing abrupt changes over time in the dependence across US…

多国宏观经济风险监测AI 解读

We propose a multicountry quantile factor augmeneted vector autoregression (QFAVAR) to model heterogeneities both across countries and across characteristics of the distributions of macroeconomic time series. The presence of quantile factors allows for summarizing these two heterogeneities in a parsimonious way. We develop two algorithms for posterior inference that feature varying level of trade-off between estimation precision and computational speed. Using monthly data…

线性动态系统观测预测中的公平性AI 解读

In machine learning, training data often capture the behaviour of multiple subgroups of some underlying human population. This behaviour can often be modelled as observations of an unknown dynamical system with an unobserved state. When the training data for the subgroups are not controlled carefully, however, under-representation bias arises. To counter under-representation bias, we introduce two natural notions of fairness in time-series forecasting problems: subgroup…

高维时间序列的带通滤波AI 解读

The paper deals with the construction of a synthetic indicator of economic growth, obtained by projecting a quarterly measure of aggregate economic activity, namely gross domestic product (GDP), into the space spanned by a finite number of smooth principal components, representative of the medium-to-long-run component of economic growth of a high-dimensional time series, available at the monthly frequency. The smooth principal components result from applying a…

贝叶斯预测决策综合AI 解读

Decision-guided perspectives on model uncertainty expand traditional statistical thinking about managing, comparing and combining inferences from sets of models. Bayesian predictive decision synthesis (BPDS) advances conceptual and theoretical foundations, and defines new methodology that explicitly integrates decision-analytic outcomes into the evaluation, comparison and potential combination of candidate models. BPDS extends recent theoretical and practical advances based…

利用最小熵集合构造函数型时间序列同时预测带AI 解读

Functional Time Series are sequences of dependent random elements taking values on some functional space. Most of the research on this domain is focused on producing a predictor able to forecast the value of the next function having observed a part of the sequence. For this, the Autoregresive Hilbertian process is a suitable framework. We address here the problem of constructing simultaneous predictive confidence bands for a stationary functional time series. The method is…

动态因子模型用于宏观经济预测：摩洛哥案例AI 解读

This article discusses the use of dynamic factor models in macroeconomic forecasting, with a focus on the Factor-Augmented Error Correction Model (FECM). The FECM combines the advantages of cointegration and dynamic factor models, providing a flexible and reliable approach to macroeconomic forecasting, especially for non-stationary variables. We evaluate the forecasting performance of the FECM model on a large dataset of 117 Moroccan economic series with quarterly frequency.…

基于全局预测模型预测准确率的时间序列聚类AI 解读

In this paper, a novel method to perform model-based clustering of time series is proposed. The procedure relies on two iterative steps: (i) K global forecasting models are fitted via pooling by considering the series pertaining to each cluster and (ii) each series is assigned to the group associated with the model producing the best forecasts according to a particular criterion. Unlike most techniques proposed in the literature, the method considers the predictive accuracy…

文本挖掘与技术分析在金融时间序列预测中的表现评估AI 解读

Forecasting financial time series (FTS) is an essential field in finance and economics that anticipates market movements in financial markets. This paper investigates the accuracy of text mining and technical analyses in forecasting financial time series. It focuses on the S&P500 stock market index during the pandemic, which tracks the performance of the largest publicly traded companies in the US. The study compares two methods of forecasting the future price of the S&P500:…

计数时间序列的概率预测协调AI 解读

Forecast reconciliation is an important research topic. Yet, there is currently neither formal framework nor practical method for the probabilistic reconciliation of count time series. In this paper we propose a definition of coherency and reconciled probabilistic forecast which applies to both real-valued and count variables and a novel method for probabilistic reconciliation. It is based on a generalization of Bayes' rule and it can reconcile both real-value and count…

高维时间序列预测回归中有效协整秩的确定AI 解读

This paper proposes a new approach to identifying the effective cointegration rank in high-dimensional unit-root (HDUR) time series from a prediction perspective using reduced-rank regression. For a HDUR process $\mathbf{x}_t\in \mathbb{R}^N$ and a stationary series $\mathbf{y}_t\in \mathbb{R}^p$ of interest, our goal is to predict future values of $\mathbf{y}_t$ using $\mathbf{x}_t$ and lagged values of $\mathbf{y}_t$. The proposed framework consists of a two-step…
