Cryptocurrencies have become a trendy topic recently, primarily due to their disruptive potential and reports of unprecedented returns. In addition, academics increasingly acknowledge the predictive power of Social Media in many fields and, more specifically, for financial markets and economics. In this paper, we leverage the predictive power of Twitter and Reddit sentiment together with Google Trends indexes and volume to forecast the log returns of ten cryptocurrencies.…

高维重尾时间序列的最优稀疏估计AI 解读

Recently, high dimensional vector auto-regressive models (VAR), have attracted a lot of interest, due to novel applications in the health, engineering and social sciences. The presence of temporal dependence poses additional challenges to the theory of penalized estimation techniques widely used in the analysis of their iid counterparts. However, recent work (e.g., [Basu and Michailidis, 2015, Kock and Callot, 2015]) has established optimal consistency of $\ell_1$-LASSO…

重新审视广义 Beta 分布族AI 解读

We approach the Generalized Beta (GB) family of distributions using a mean-reverting stochastic differential equation (SDE) for a power of the variable, whose steady-state (stationary) probability density function (PDF) is a modified GB (mGB) distribution. The SDE approach allows for a lucid explanation of Generalized Beta Prime (GB2) and Generalized Beta (GB1) limits of GB distribution and, further down, of Generalized Inverse Gamma (GIGa) and Generalized Gamma (GGa)…

协变量自适应随机化下分位数处理效应的回归调整估计AI 解读

Datasets from field experiments with covariate-adaptive randomizations (CARs) usually contain extra covariates in addition to the strata indicators. We propose to incorporate these additional covariates via auxiliary regressions in the estimation and inference of unconditional quantile treatment effects (QTEs) under CARs. We establish the consistency and limit distribution of the regression-adjusted QTE estimator and prove that the use of multiplier bootstrap inference is…

连接因子模型与稀疏模型AI 解读

Factor and sparse models are two widely used methods to impose a low-dimensional structure in high-dimensions. However, they are seemingly mutually exclusive. We propose a lifting method that combines the merits of these two models in a supervised learning methodology that allows for efficiently exploring all the information in high-dimensional datasets. The method is based on a flexible model for high-dimensional panel data, called factor-augmented regression model with…

稀疏多变量 GLARMA 模型的变量选择：环境对种子萌发调控的应用AI 解读

We propose a novel and efficient iterative two-stage variable selection approach for multivariate sparse GLARMA models, which can be used for modelling multivariate discrete-valued time series. Our approach consists in iteratively combining two steps: the estimation of the autoregressive moving average (ARMA) coefficients of multivariate GLARMA models and the variable selection in the coefficients of the Generalized Linear Model (GLM) part of the model performed by…

稀疏 GLARMA 模型中的变量选择AI 解读

In this paper, we propose a novel and efficient two-stage variable selection approach for sparse GLARMA models, which are pervasive for modeling discrete-valued time series. Our approach consists in iteratively combining the estimation of the autoregressive moving average (ARMA) coefficients of GLARMA models with regularized methods designed for performing variable selection in regression coefficients of Generalized Linear Models (GLM). We first establish the consistency of…

单位根非平稳数据的限制特征值条件AI 解读

In this paper, we develop a restricted eigenvalue condition for unit-root non-stationary data and derive its validity under the assumption of independent Gaussian innovations that may be contemporaneously correlated. The method of proof relies on matrix concentration inequalities and offers sufficient flexibility to enable extensions of our results to alternative time series settings. As an application of this result, we show the consistency of the lasso estimator on ultra…

多暴露线性模型中的有效工具变量选择：自适应 Lasso 与中位数的中位数估计量AI 解读

In a linear instrumental variables (IV) setting for estimating the causal effects of multiple confounded exposure/treatment variables on an outcome, we investigate the adaptive Lasso method for selecting valid instrumental variables from a set of available instruments that may contain invalid ones. An instrument is invalid if it fails the exclusion conditions and enters the model as an explanatory variable. We extend the results as developed in Windmeijer et al. (2019) for…

先验强化信息准则AI 解读

The widely applicable information criterion (WAIC) has been used as a model selection criterion for Bayesian statistics in recent years. It is an asymptotically unbiased estimator of the Kullback-Leibler divergence between a Bayesian predictive distribution and the true distribution. Not only is the WAIC theoretically more sound than other information criteria, its usefulness in practice has also been reported. On the other hand, the WAIC is intended for settings in which…

利用时变风险溢价预测股票收益的惩罚两步回归AI 解读

We develop a penalized two-pass regression with time-varying factor loadings. The penalization in the first pass enforces sparsity for the time-variation drivers while also maintaining compatibility with the no-arbitrage restrictions by regularizing appropriate groups of coefficients. The second pass delivers risk premia estimates to predict equity excess returns. Our Monte Carlo results and our empirical results on a large cross-sectional data set of US individual stocks…

融合机器学习的时变参数全球向量自回归：经济动态解释与预测AI 解读

The paper proposes a time-varying parameter global vector autoregressive (TVP-GVAR) framework for predicting and analysing developed region economic variables. We want to provide an easily accessible approach for the economy application settings, where a variety of machine learning models can be incorporated for out-of-sample prediction. The LASSO-type technique for numerically efficient model selection of mean squared errors (MSEs) is selected. We show the convincing…

处理删失与高维变量的结局自适应倾向得分方法AI 解读

Propensity scores are commonly used to reduce the confounding bias in non-randomized observational studies for estimating the average treatment effect. An important assumption underlying this approach is that all confounders that are associated with both the treatment and the outcome of interest are measured and included in the propensity score model. In the absence of strong prior knowledge about potential confounders, researchers may agnostically want to adjust for a…

稀疏贝叶斯状态空间与时变参数模型AI 解读

In this chapter, we review variance selection for time-varying parameter (TVP) models for univariate and multivariate time series within a Bayesian framework. We show how both continuous as well as discrete spike-and-slab shrinkage priors can be transferred from variable selection for regression models to variance selection for TVP models by using a non-centered parametrization. We discuss efficient MCMC estimation and provide an application to US inflation modeling.

降秩回归的正则化选择：稳定性方法AI 解读

The reduced-rank regression model is a popular model to deal with multivariate response and multiple predictors, and is widely used in biology, chemometrics, econometrics, engineering, and other fields. In the reduced-rank regression modelling, a central objective is to estimate the rank of the coefficient matrix that represents the number of effective latent factors in predicting the multivariate response. Although theoretical results such as rank estimation consistency…

高维向量自回归模型的速率最优稳健估计AI 解读

High-dimensional time series data appear in many scientific areas in the current data-rich environment. Analysis of such data poses new challenges to data analysts because of not only the complicated dynamic dependence between the series, but also the existence of aberrant observations, such as missing values, contaminated observations, and heavy-tailed distributions. For high-dimensional vector autoregressive (VAR) models, we introduce a unified estimation procedure that is…

用于异质性处理效应估计的组 Lasso 规则集成方法AI 解读

The increasing scientific attention given to precision medicine based on real-world data has led many recent studies to clarify the relationships between treatment effects and patient characteristics. However, this is challenging because of ubiquitous heterogeneity in the treatment effect for individuals and the real-world data on their background being complex and noisy. Because of their flexibility, various heterogeneous treatment effect (HTE) machine learning (ML)…

时间序列的共形预测集合AI 解读

When building either prediction intervals for regression (with real-valued response) or prediction sets for classification (with categorical responses), uncertainty quantification is essential to studying complex machine learning methods. In this paper, we develop Ensemble Regularized Adaptive Prediction Set (ERAPS) to construct prediction sets for time-series (with categorical responses), based on the prior work of [Xu and Xie, 2021]. In particular, we allow unknown…

RieszNet 与 ForestRiesz：神经网络和随机森林的自动去偏机器学习AI 解读

Many causal and policy effects of interest are defined by linear functionals of high-dimensional or non-parametric regression functions. $\sqrt{n}$-consistent and asymptotically normal estimation of the object of interest requires debiasing to reduce the effects of regularization and/or model selection on the object of interest. Debiasing is typically achieved by adding a correction term to the plug-in estimator of the functional, which leads to properties such as…

利用时变特征的贝叶斯预测组合AI 解读

In this work, we propose a novel framework for density forecast combination by constructing time-varying weights based on time series features, which is called Feature-based Bayesian Forecasting Model Averaging (FEBAMA). Our framework estimates weights in the forecast combination via Bayesian log predictive scores, in which the optimal forecasting combination is determined by time series features from historical information. In particular, we use an automatic Bayesian…

SCR：利用一致性正则化训练图神经网络AI 解读

We present the SCR framework for enhancing the training of graph neural networks (GNNs) with consistency regularization. Regularization is a set of strategies used in Machine Learning to reduce overfitting and improve the generalization ability. However, it is unclear how to best design the generalization strategies in GNNs, as it works in a semi-supervised setting for graph data. The major challenge lies in how to efficiently balance the trade-off between the error from the…

特异成分服从稀疏 VAR 的因子模型AI 解读

We reconcile the two worlds of dense and sparse modeling by exploiting the positive aspects of both. We employ a factor model and assume {the dynamic of the factors is non-pervasive while} the idiosyncratic term follows a sparse vector autoregressive model (VAR) {which allows} for cross-sectional and time dependence. The estimation is articulated in two steps: first, the factors and their loadings are estimated via principal component analysis and second, the sparse VAR is…

利用变量重要性先验信息的高维回归AI 解读

There are a variety of settings where vague prior information may be available on the importance of predictors in high-dimensional regression settings. Examples include ordering on the variables offered by their empirical variances (which is typically discarded through standardisation), the lag of predictors when fitting autoregressive models in time series settings, or the level of missingness of the variables. Whilst such orderings may not match the true importance of…

高维稀疏多元随机波动率模型AI 解读

Although multivariate stochastic volatility models usually produce more accurate forecasts compared to the MGARCH models, their estimation techniques such as Bayesian MCMC typically suffer from the curse of dimensionality. We propose a fast and efficient estimation approach for MSV based on a penalized OLS framework. Specifying the MSV model as a multivariate state space model, we carry out a two-step penalized procedure. We provide the asymptotic properties of the two-step…
