无矩条件下的非对称 GARCH 建模AI 解读

Heavy tails and stability are two persistent challenges in modelling financial time series, yet most existing approaches rely on finite-moment assumptions and pay insufficient attention to stability issues. To bridge this gap, we propose an asymmetric GARCH model with standardized non-Gaussian stable innovations (sAGARCH), which accommodates infinite variance and even infinite mean. We establish a comprehensive inference framework for both stationary and explosive cases,…

基于 MMAF 引导学习的时空概率预测AI 解读

We present a theory-guided generalized Bayesian methodology for spatio-temporal raster data, which we use to train an ensemble of stochastic feed-forward neural networks with Gaussian-distributed weights. The methodology incorporates the dependence and causal structure of a spatio-temporal Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process into training and inference by enforcing constraints on the design of the data embedding and the related optimization routine. In inference mode, the networks…

宏观经济信念的分布形态AI 解读

Macroeconomic expectations are usually observed through point forecasts or through asset prices whose mapping into beliefs is model-dependent. This paper uses prediction-market prices to recover high-frequency distributions of short-run macroeconomic beliefs. We construct a panel of Kalshi-implied distributions for CPI and core CPI releases by converting adjacent threshold contracts into probability mass over inflation outcomes. The data reveal market-implied means,…

高维时间序列的隐私保护联邦学习AI 解读

In the era of big data, leveraging information from multiple clients while preserving data privacy has emerged as a critical challenge in modern statistical modeling and forecasting. This paper introduces a privacy-preserving federated learning framework for high-dimensional vector autoregressive models, where each client's dynamics are characterized by a common low-rank structure augmented with sparse client-specific deviations. We develop a two-stage estimation procedure…

超越等距假设：序数时间序列的自回归有序定型模型AI 解读

We propose an extension of the ordered stereotype model (OSM) for ordinal time series data, referred to as the Autoregressive OSM (AR-OSM). The model captures serial dependence by incorporating lagged values of the response as covariates in the systematic component. In contrast to existing regression models for ordinal time series, the AR-OSM does not assume equidistant categories, but instead allows the data to determine their relative spacing. This property makes the model…

包含个体冲击与共同冲击的第二代异质面板模型AI 解读

We study estimation of the mean slope in heterogeneous panels that combine cross-sectional dependence from unobserved common factors with unit-specific structural breaks occurring at different dates. We organize the available second-generation Mean Group estimators into a regime map indexed by the cross-section size, the strength of the cross-sectional dependence, and the nature of the structural change, and we examine two estimators for the small-to-moderate-dependence…

MACROCAST：面向实时宏观预测、与数据发布版本一致的时间序列基础模型AI 解读

We introduce MACROCAST, a lightweight Time Series Foundation Model (TSFM) for real-time macroeconomic forecasting. Existing TSFMs suffer from data leakage in two forms: temporal contamination, as the model may have seen the realized values of the series it forecasts, and revision bias, as training on fully revised data diverges from the preliminary, vintage-specific releases available to real-time forecasters. MACROCAST is, to our knowledge, the first TSFM that rules out…

极值分析中的阈值选择AI 解读

One of the two dominant approaches for univariate extreme value analysis is to model exceedances above a large threshold, the choice of which has a large impact on inference and whose uncertainty is often subsequently ignored. In this article we review more than 40 threshold selection procedures, including semiparametric methods based on Hill's estimator, visual diagnostics, goodness-of-fit tests, and others based on extended generalized Pareto models. Starting with the…

实证经济学中可审计的人工智能代理循环：预测组合案例AI 解读

AI coding agents, general purpose assistants that write and execute code, make empirical specification search fast and cheap, but they also widen hidden researcher degrees of freedom. This paper adapts an open-source agent-loop architecture to an empirical economics workflow and adds a post-search holdout evaluation. In a forecast-combination illustration, independent agent searches find methods that improve on benchmarks from the original study. Logged search and holdout…

用学校人口特征与教师特征建模教育表现AI 解读

High-dimensional educational datasets often exhibit sparsity, grouped predictors, and locally correlated covariates, limiting the effectiveness of conventional regression methods. We propose an Adaptive Weighted Group Fused LASSO estimator that jointly performs adaptive variable selection, group regularization, and coefficient fusion within a unified penalized regression framework. An efficient ADMM algorithm is developed, and asymptotic properties, including consistency,…

滞后数递增的多元非平稳函数型时间序列综合检验AI 解读

Multivariate locally stationary functional time series provide a flexible framework for modeling functional data exhibiting both temporal and spatial dependencies while allowing for a time-varying data generating mechanism. In this paper, we introduce a portmanteau-type test for assessing white noise assumptions tailored for multivariate locally stationary functional time series without dimension reduction. A simple bootstrap procedure is proposed to implement the test,…

非平稳时间序列趋势的在线自助法推断AI 解读

This article proposes an online bootstrap scheme for nonparametric level estimation in nonstationary time series. Our approach applies to a broad class of level estimators expressible as weighted sample averages over time windows, including exponential smoothing methods and moving averages. The bootstrap procedure is motivated by asymptotic arguments and provides well-calibrated uniform-in-time coverage, enabling scalable uncertainty quantification in streaming or…

XMSE 感知的自适应经验贝叶斯估计AI 解读

Empirical Bayes (EB) estimators can match the first-order asymptotic risk of maximum likelihood (ML) while behaving very differently at second order: recent excess mean squared error (XMSE) analysis shows that kernel-based EB estimation may be worse than ML when the kernel is poorly aligned with the true parameter. This paper turns that diagnostic into a design principle. We propose an XMSE-aware mixed estimator that interpolates between ML and EB shrinkage. Its fixed-weight…

仅用两个参数和少量数据预测登革热病例：美国佛罗里达州2022—2023年疫情AI 解读

Reliable and timely dengue predictions can provide an actionable lead time for targeted vector control and clinical preparedness, reducing preventable disease and health-system costs in at-risk communities. However, many forecasting approaches depend on site-specific covariates and entomological surveillance, which limits portability to data-sparse settings. In this work, we mathematically prove that a parabolic ICC structure, previously established for the basic SIR model,…

不完整矩阵回归AI 解读

Matrix completion seeks to recover a low-rank matrix from a sparse and noisy subset of its entries. In many applications, such as recommendation systems and urban mobility, the observed matrix is accompanied by auxiliary covariates on its rows and columns and exhibits dependence across them. We propose Incomplete Matrix Regression (IMR), a distribution-free penalized regression framework that integrates such information into matrix completion. The target matrix is modeled as…

方差差量：后验不确定性的可视化与解释AI 解读

In observational settings, where the data generating process and possibly the sample size are not controlled, it is typically impossible to guarantee a priori that quantities of interest will be estimated with sufficient precision. However, even when the data do not determine the quantities of interest, they may still allow determination of what is missing -- unobserved information which, if observed, would meaningfully reduce uncertainty. We propose an interactive…

模型无关的纵向变量重要性轨迹摘要推断及其自杀预防应用AI 解读

Risk of suicide attempt varies over time. Understanding the importance of risk factors measured at a mental health visit can help clinicians evaluate future risk and provide appropriate care during the visit. In prediction settings where data are collected over time, such as in mental health care, it is often of interest to understand both the importance of variables for predicting the response at each time point and the importance summarized over the time series. Building…

平稳情形下 VAR(1) 模型的可识别性AI 解读

We consider a classical First-order Vector AutoRegressive (VAR(1)) model, where we interpret the autoregressive interaction matrix as influence relationships among the components of the VAR(1) process that can be encoded by a weighted directed graph. A majority of previous work studies the structural identifiability of the graph based on time series observations and therefore relies on dynamical information. In this work we assume that an equilibrium exists, and study…

通过尺度累积逐点估计 Hurst 参数：粗糙波动率的抗噪方法AI 解读

We introduce an estimator for the pointwise, time-varying Hölder exponent (Hurst parameter) of a stochastic process, based on the geometry accumulation integral G_Lambda(t) = integral from Lambda to 1 of |eth_s X(t)| s^{-1} ds, where eth_s X(t) = (X(t+s)-X(t))/s is the scale derivative at resolution s. We prove consistency, noise robustness with explicit threshold Lambda* = sigma^{1/H}, and a CLT at rate (log Lambda)^{-1/2}. The estimator is pointwise in time, defined at…

结构模型中哪些参数应校准、哪些应估计？AI 解读

Structural models often fix (calibrate) some parameters and estimate the rest, but this calibration-estimation partition is usually chosen by convention. This paper treats that choice as an econometric partition-selection problem. For each admissible partition, we construct a scalar sensitivity statistic measuring the local response of a target object -- such as a policy effect, welfare measure, impulse response, or treatment effect -- to perturbations of the calibrated…

多层网络向量自回归的时变模型平均AI 解读

In this paper, we introduce a flexible time-varying multi-layer network vector autoregression (VAR) model framework for large-scale time series, allowing agents in dynamic systems to interact through multiple channels and incorporating multiple adjacency matrices to capture network spillover effects. We propose a penalized model averaging method to determine a time-varying optimal combination of multi-layer network VAR candidate models whose number may be divergent. Under…

内生网络形成下的异质同伴效应AI 解读

This paper introduces a new econometric framework for modeling social interactions with heterogeneous peer responses, addressing endogenous link formation. Our Selection-corrected Heterogeneous Spatial Autoregressive (SCHSAR) approach jointly models link formation and outcome determination. We incorporate a finite mixture structure to capture heterogeneity in peer effects and account for unobserved individual-specific factors driving both network formation and outcome…

高维近似因子模型中特征结构的贝叶斯估计AI 解读

High-dimensional economic datasets often display strong co-movement driven by a small number of latent factors, which are typically modeled using approximate factor models. When the number of variables is large relative to the sample size, the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the sample covariance matrix are severely distorted, which in turn makes principal component based estimators of the factor structure unstable. To address the high-dimensional problem, we propose a…

高维混杂调整下非平稳信号的偏小波典型相干AI 解读

We develop Partial Wavelet Canonical Coherence for measuring the direct canonical association between two multivariate nonstationary time series after adjustment for possibly high-dimensional confounders. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first method that establishes a frequency-domain formulation of the partial canonical correlation analysis for time series. Through a wavelet approach, the proposed method yields a scale-specific, time-varying measure of association…
