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.…

非参数趋势曲线的多尺度比较AI 解读

We develop new econometric methods for the comparison of nonparametric time trends. In many applications, practitioners are interested in whether the observed time series all have the same time trend. Moreover, they would often like to know which trends are different and in which time intervals they differ. We design a multiscale test to formally approach these questions. Specifically, we develop a test which allows to make rigorous confidence statements about which time…

利用拓扑数据分析建模与模拟网络依赖AI 解读

Topological data analysis (TDA) approaches are becoming increasingly popular for studying the dependence patterns in multivariate time series data. In particular, various dependence patterns in brain networks may be linked to specific tasks and cognitive processes, which can be altered by various neurological and cognitive impairments such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, as well as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Because there is no ground-truth…

用于自调节贝叶斯推断的单链差分进化蒙特卡洛AI 解读

1. Bayesian inference is difficult because it often requires time consuming tuning of samplers. Differential evolution Monte-Carlo (DEMC) is a self-tuning multi-chain sampling approach which requires minimal input from the operator as samples are obtained by taking the difference of the current position of multiple randomly selected chains. However, this can also make DEMC more computationally intensive than single chain samplers. 2. We provide a single-chain adaptation of…

趋势与季节调整模型的 GIC 信息准则AI 解读

This paper presents an algorithm for computing the GIC and the TIC of the nonstationary state-space models. The gradient and Hessian of the log-likelihood neccesary in computing the GIC are obtained by the differential filter that is derived by extending the Kalman filter. Three examples of the nonstationary time series models, i.e., the trend model, statndard seasonal adjustment model and the seasonal adjustment model with stationary AR component are presented to…

用于函数型趋势估计的函数型马蹄平滑AI 解读

Due to developments in instruments and computers, functional observations are increasingly popular. However, effective methodologies for flexibly estimating the underlying trends with valid uncertainty quantification for a sequence of functional data (e.g. functional time series) are still scarce. In this work, we develop a locally adaptive smoothing method, called functional horseshoe smoothing, by introducing a shrinkage prior to the general order of differences of…

马尔可夫链的无偏时间平均估计量AI 解读

We consider a time-average estimator $f_{k}$ of a functional of a Markov chain. Under a coupling assumption, we show that the expectation of $f_{k}$ has a limit $μ$ as the number of time-steps goes to infinity. We describe a modification of $f_{k}$ that yields an unbiased estimator $\hat f_{k}$ of $μ$. It is shown that $\hat f_{k}$ is square-integrable and has finite expected running time. Under certain conditions, $\hat f_{k}$ can be built without any precomputations, and…

广义最大值点定理及其应用AI 解读

The argmax theorem is a useful result for deriving the limiting distribution of estimators in many applications. The conclusion of the argmax theorem states that the argmax of a sequence of stochastic processes converges in distribution to the argmax of a limiting stochastic process. This paper generalizes the argmax theorem to allow the maximization to take place over a sequence of subsets of the domain. If the sequence of subsets converges to a limiting subset, then the…

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…

平稳多元时间序列的频谱子抽样 MCMC 及向量 ARTFIMA 应用AI 解读

Spectral subsampling MCMC was recently proposed to speed up Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) for long stationary univariate time series by subsampling periodogram observations in the frequency domain. This article extends the approach to multivariate time series using a multivariate generalisation of the Whittle likelihood. To assess the computational gains from spectral subsampling in challenging problems, a multivariate generalisation of the autoregressive tempered…

邻域 VAR：利用邻域信息高效估计多元时间序列AI 解读

In data science, vector autoregression (VAR) models are popular in modeling multivariate time series in the environmental sciences and other applications. However, these models are computationally complex with the number of parameters scaling quadratically with the number of time series. In this work, we propose a so-called neighborhood vector autoregression (NVAR) model to efficiently analyze large-dimensional multivariate time series. We assume that the time series have…

Gibbs 分布的动力系统假设检验与决策理论AI 解读

We consider the problem of testing for two Gibbs probabilities $μ_0$ and $μ_1$ defined for a dynamical system $(Ω,T)$. Due to the fact that in general full orbits are not observable or computable, one needs to restrict to subclasses of tests defined by a finite time series $h(x_0), h(x_1)=h(T(x_0)),..., h(x_n)=h(T^n(x_0))$, $x_0\in Ω$, $n\ge 0$, where $h:Ω\to\mathbb R$ denotes a suitable measurable function. We determine in each class the Neyman-Pearson tests, the minimax…

未来气候变化情景下二氧化碳排放的贝叶斯函数型仿真代理AI 解读

We propose a statistical emulator for a climate-economy deterministic integrated assessment model ensemble, based on a functional regression framework. Inference on the unknown parameters is carried out through a mixed effects hierarchical model using a fully Bayesian framework with a prior distribution on the vector of all parameters. We also suggest an autoregressive parameterization of the covariance matrix of the error, with matching marginal prior. In this way, we allow…

识别随机过程数据中差异最大的区域AI 解读

The comparison of local characteristics of two random processes can shed light on periods of time or space at which the processes differ the most. This paper proposes a method that learns about regions with a certain volume, where the marginal attributes of two processes are less similar. The proposed methods are devised in full generality for the setting where the data of interest are themselves stochastic processes, and thus the proposed method can be used for pointing out…

利用近似贝叶斯计算对难处理模型进行预测推断AI 解读

Approximate Bayesian computation (ABC) is commonly used for parameter estimation and model comparison for intractable simulator-based models whose likelihood function cannot be evaluated. In this paper we instead investigate the feasibility of ABC as a generic approximate method for predictive inference, in particular, for computing the posterior predictive distribution of future observations or missing data of interest. We consider three complementary ABC approaches for…

通过自归一化分割时间序列AI 解读

We propose a novel and unified framework for change-point estimation in multivariate time series. The proposed method is fully nonparametric, enjoys effortless tuning and is robust to temporal dependence. One salient and distinct feature of the proposed method is its versatility, where it allows change-point detection for a broad class of parameters (such as mean, variance, correlation and quantile) in a unified fashion. At the core of our method, we couple the…

W-Transformers：基于小波的单变量时间序列预测框架AI 解读

Deep learning utilizing transformers has recently achieved a lot of success in many vital areas such as natural language processing, computer vision, anomaly detection, and recommendation systems, among many others. Among several merits of transformers, the ability to capture long-range temporal dependencies and interactions is desirable for time series forecasting, leading to its progress in various time series applications. In this paper, we build a transformer model for…

用于高维时间序列聚类的因子建模AI 解读

We propose a new unsupervised learning method for clustering a large number of time series based on a latent factor structure. Each cluster is characterized by its own cluster-specific factors in addition to some common factors which impact on all the time series concerned. Our setting also offers the flexibility that some time series may not belong to any clusters. The consistency with explicit convergence rates is established for the estimation of the common factors, the…

含乘积项二维啁啾模型参数估计的计算高效算法AI 解读

Chirp signal models and their generalizations have been used to model many natural and man-made phenomena in signal processing and time series literature. In recent times, several methods have been proposed for parameter estimation of these models. These methods however are either statistically sub-optimal or computationally burdensome, specially for two dimensional (2D) chirp models. In this paper, we consider the problem of parameter estimation of 2D chirp models and…

基于越界度量投影的随机变量预测AI 解读

We use the concept of excursions for the prediction of random variables without any moment existence assumptions. To do so, an excursion metric on the space of random variables is defined which appears to be a kind of a weighted $L^1$-distance. Using equivalent forms of this metric and the specific choice of excursion levels, we formulate the prediction problem as a minimization of a certain target functional which involves the excursion metric. Existence of the solution and…

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)…

波动率的波动率估计：傅里叶估计量的中心极限定理与日度动态特征AI 解读

We study the asymptotic normality of two feasible estimators of the integrated volatility of volatility based on the Fourier methodology, which does not require the pre-estimation of the spot volatility. We show that the bias-corrected estimator reaches the optimal rate $n^{1/4}$, while the estimator without bias-correction has a slower convergence rate and a smaller asymptotic variance. Additionally, we provide simulation results that support the theoretical asymptotic…

贝叶斯混频分位数向量自回归：刻画美国月度 GDP 尾部风险AI 解读

Timely characterizations of risks in economic and financial systems play an essential role in both economic policy and private sector decisions. However, the informational content of low-frequency variables and the results from conditional mean models provide only limited evidence to investigate this problem. We propose a novel mixed-frequency quantile vector autoregression (MF-QVAR) model to address this issue. Inspired by the univariate Bayesian quantile regression…

波动率模型的 Edgeworth 展开AI 解读

Motivated from option and derivative pricing, this note develops Edgeworth expansions both in the Kolmogorov and Wasserstein metric for many different types of discrete time volatility models and their possible transformations. This includes, among others, Hölder-type functions of (augmented) Garch processes of any order, iterated random functions or Volterra-processes.
