SCAN：通过自适应非参数推断依次检测变点AI 解读

Modern time series are often long, serially dependent, and non-stationary. Existing change-point methods either target specific changes or become computationally intensive when using nonparametric costs on long series. Many also require thresholds to be carefully calibrated under serial dependence. We introduce SCAN, an offline method for detecting multiple distributional change-points in long, serially dependent univariate time series. SCAN compares adjacent windows using…

非欧对象值时间序列的周期性量化AI 解读

Non-Euclidean object-valued time series are playing a growing role in modern data analysis, and periodicity is a fundamental characteristic of many time series. However, quantifying periodicity in general non-Euclidean random objects remains largely unexplored. In this work, we introduce a novel nonparametric framework for quantifying periodicity in random objects within a general metric space that lacks Euclidean structure. Our approach formulates periodicity estimation as…

贝叶斯指标饱和回归AI 解读

Structural break detection has emerged as an important tool for assessing the effects of policies in settings where conventional policy evaluation methods might not be applicable.In this paper, we introduce a unified Bayesian framework for detecting structural breaks with unknown timing and arbitrary sequence in longitudinal data. The proposed setup builds on a indicator-saturated regression design and uses a spike-and-slab prior for selection among indicators. We establish…

处理—混杂反馈下电力需求的边际结构模型与连续处理自适应 LASSOAI 解读

Temperature is the most important meteorological driver of electricity demand, but its causal effect has not been estimated under the time-varying confounding that characterizes weather processes. Current temperature is associated with weather conditions, including precipitation, snow cover, and cloud cover, that also influence electricity demand, and past temperature shapes future weather, producing treatment-confounder feedback under which standard regression adjustment is…

利用多分位数稳健检验多变量波动率的结构变化AI 解读

We propose an omnibus nonparametric test for structural changes in the multivariate volatility matrix. The test aggregates bounded generalized quantile scores over a range of quantile levels and has a weighted leave-$q$-out $U$-statistic representation. Deleting nearby index pairs renders the centering effect induced by serial dependence asymptotically negligible. All quantities required for implementation, including the variance estimator used for standardization, are…

非平稳时间序列中稳定区间的检验AI 解读

Many time series are not stable over their full observation horizon, but may contain scientifically meaningful periods during which a signal remains stable up to a prescribed tolerance. We formulate this as an existence test for stable intervals in a non-stationary regression model with dependent, locally stationary errors. For a signal $d$ derived from the mean function, including deviations from reference levels and derivatives, stability over duration $δ$ is encoded by $d_\infty=\inf_{t\in[0,1-δ]}\sup_{s\in[t,t+δ]}|d(s)|$…

固定时间维度随机系数动态面板模型的估计AI 解读

We study dynamic linear panel data models in which the lagged outcomes and strictly exogenous covariates carry individual-specific coefficients and the time-varying errors have a flexible covariance structure. With a fixed number of time periods, we point-identify the joint distribution of the random coefficients and the structural errors under a distributional form of strict exogeneity, and propose a closed-form, multi-step estimator based on the inverse Radon transform. We…

概率通胀预测的序贯有效推断AI 解读

Traditional statistical tests are poorly suited for the sequential evaluation of probabilistic forecast calibration. We address this limitation in macroeconomic forecasting by applying a new sequential testing method based on e-values. The e-value-based methodology enables anytime-valid inference. It allows practitioners to test against calibration continuously without invalidating statistical guarantees. To illustrate the framework's practical value, we apply it to…

利用结构化均值变化的矩阵时间序列自适应变点检测AI 解读

In high-dimensional time series, the component processes are often assembled into a matrix to display their interrelationship. We focus on detecting mean shifts with unknown change point locations in these matrix time series. Series that are activated by a change may cluster along certain rows (columns), which forms mode-specific change point alignment. Leveraging mode-specific change point alignments may substantially enhance the power for change point detection. Yet, there…

基于稀疏张量分解的高维时间序列谱变点估计AI 解读

Multivariate time series may be subject to partial structural changes over certain frequency band, for instance, in neuroscience. We study the change point detection problem with high dimensional time series, within the framework of frequency domain. The overarching goal is to locate all change points and delineate which series are activated by the change, over which frequencies. In practice, the number of activated series per change and frequency could span from a few to…

含噪网络测量下时变网络构成与预测依赖的分离AI 解读

A common question about networked time series is whether outcomes changed because shocks transmit more strongly or because the pattern of connections changed. Standard practice inserts a recorded network into an outcome regression and reads movements of the fitted coefficient as changes in transmission strength. When the network is latent, time varying, and measured with error, this reading fails: changes in strength and changes in composition can produce the same outcome…

鞅 R 学习器：事件时间结果的时变异质性治疗效应估计AI 解读

Biological research and clinical evidence suggest that treatment response may vary substantially along characteristics, such as comorbidities, genetic variants, environmental, or socio-economic factors. Future precision medicine requires accurate assessment of heterogeneous treatment effects (HTE) to guide optimal clinical decisions at the individual level. We introduce a functional score framework that extends the traditional estimating equations for survival data to…

时变调节效应的选择后推断AI 解读

Causal effect moderation investigates how the effect of interventions (or treatments) on outcome variables changes based on observed characteristics of individuals, known as potential effect moderators. With advances in data collection, datasets containing many observed features as potential moderators have become increasingly common. High-dimensional analyses often lack interpretability, with important moderators masked by noise, while low-dimensional, marginal analyses…

非平稳时间序列的递归多变点检测、估计与置信区间AI 解读

We develop bootstrap-assisted robust binary segmentation (BARBS), a recursive binary segmentation method for multiple change point detection under general nonstationary temporal dynamics. A novel Gaussian multiplier bootstrap for the CUSUM statistics is proposed, offering robustness to complex dependence structures. Through meticulous calibration of the critical values at each stage of the recursion, BARBS ensures control of the Type I error under the null hypothesis of no…

面板数据模型中折点的估计与检验AI 解读

Many economic and financial relationships may change gradually rather than abruptly. We study panel data models in which the coefficient vector is continuous and piecewise linear in calendar time, with a finite number of unknown kink dates at which its slope changes. We propose a penalised least squares estimator that applies adaptive weighted group penalties to the second differences of the coefficient path, and develop asymptotic theory showing that it recovers both the…

网络上的多尺度动态依赖估计AI 解读

In many settings, observed multivariate time series are often nonstationary in nature, i.e., their second order properties vary over time. An additional feature is that their cross-channel dependencies are structured by an underlying network. Together, they give rise to complex interactions between temporal dynamics and network topology. We propose Locally Stationary Wavelet processes on Networks (Net-LSW), a new framework for modelling multiscale, time-varying dependencies…

大型贝叶斯张量自回归AI 解读

The availability of multidimensional economic datasets has grown significantly in recent years. An example is bilateral trade values across goods among countries, comprising three dimensions -- importing countries, exporting countries, and goods -- forming a third-order tensor time series. This paper introduces a general Bayesian tensor autoregressive framework to analyze the dynamics of large, multidimensional time series with a particular focus on international trade…

高维时间序列中的变点检测与定位AI 解读

We present new inference tools for change point detection in high-dimensional time series. We discuss two distinct statistical applications: First, sequential change point testing in an incoming data-stream. Second, retrospective localization of multiple changes, with confidence intervals at a globally controlled error level. Test statistics are built on the maximum norm to generate power against sparse and asynchronous changes. Both problems are tackled by related…

异质高维函数型时间序列的变点检测AI 解读

High-dimensional functional panels consist of temporally ordered curves observed across many subjects and naturally exhibit heterogeneous structural changes. Under sparse subject-level break signals or opposite-signed shifts, traditional mean-aggregated CUSUM procedures may suffer noticeable power loss due to signal attenuation or cancellation induced by cross-sectional averaging. We propose a novel Energy--PE statistic, which combines subject-wise squared CUSUM energy…

函数型时间序列结构畸变的检测AI 解读

In the era of modern data science, the rapid proliferation of high-dimensional and functional datasets has fostered increasing interest in the investigation of paradigm shifts and structural breaks. Unlike classical univariate time series, structural changes in functional data need not occur simultaneously across the entire domain; instead, they may emerge locally, producing heterogeneous distortions across the underlying functional structure. The patterns of instability…

时变多重季节性 ARMA 模型AI 解读

We propose an ARMA model that allows for multiple seasonal periods and time varying parameters in both regular and seasonal components, building upon previous work for pure AR processes and the conditional likelihood. The model is parameterized to ensure stability and invertibility at each time point. The parameter evolution is governed by dynamic shrinkage processes, enabling extended periods of essentially constant parameters, gradual changes, and abrupt shifts. The model…

非平稳时间序列条件独立检验的动态广义协方差度量AI 解读

Identifying relationships among stochastic processes is a core objective in many fields, such as economics. While the standard toolkit for multivariate time series analysis has many advantages, it can be difficult to capture nonlinear dynamics using linear vector autoregressive models. This difficulty has motivated the development of methods for causal discovery and variable selection for nonlinear time series, which routinely employ tests for conditional independence. In…

利用随机投影分析高维数据变点AI 解读

This paper develops a novel change point identification method for high-dimensional data using random projections. By projecting high-dimensional time series into a one-dimensional space, we are able to leverage the rich literature for univariate time series. We propose applying random projections multiple times and then combining the univariate test results using existing multiple comparison methods. Simulation results suggest that the proposed method tends to have better…

基于条件状态与轨迹类比的多变量概率预测AI 解读

We propose Conditional Regime Analog Forecasting with Trajectories (CRAFT), a nonparametric framework for multivariate probabilistic time-series prediction. The method constructs paired backward and forward trajectory profiles from cumulative multi-horizon returns, learns recurrent low-dimensional regime labels in both spaces using singular value decomposition, change-point segmentation, and segment clustering, and estimates a backward-to-forward conditional regime…
