双重稳健的局部投影双重差分AI 解读

This paper develops a doubly robust extension of local-projections difference-in-differences (LP-DiD) for staggered absorbing treatments. The resulting estimator, DRLPDID, preserves the LP-DiD local-stack ATT target and is consistent when either the local untreated-outcome regression or the local treatment-probability model is correctly specified. It also delivers influence-function-based inference for post-treatment summaries and multiplier-bootstrap bands for dynamic…

ARCH-m(X) 模型的非参数检验与变量选择AI 解读

We introduce the ARCH-m(X) model, a semiparametric extension of the ARCH-X framework in which the effect of a multivariate exogenous covariate vector X on the conditional variance is modeled through an unknown nonparametric function m(), accommodating complex nonlinear relationships between external predictors and financial volatility. Within this model, we develop a novel hypothesis test for the significance of covariates constructed with an artificial one-way ANOVA. Under…

主体模型潜在状态估计：数据同化与似然推断比较AI 解读

In this paper, we present the first systematic comparison of Data Assimilation (DA) and Likelihood-Based Inference (LBI) in the context of an Agent-Based Model (ABM). These models generate observable time series driven by evolving, partially-latent microstates. Latent states must be estimated to align simulations with real-world data, a task traditionally addressed by DA, particularly in continuous and equation-based models used in weather forecasting. However, the nature of…

结构动态模型的目标优化识别方案AI 解读

We take a new perspective on identification in structural dynamic models: rather than imposing restrictions alone, we optimize an objective. While definitive structural identification ultimately requires exogenous economic insight, a weighted correlation-maximizing objective yields an Order- and Scale-Invariant Scheme (OASIS) that selects the orthogonal rotation most aligned with designated target variables. In traditional SVARs, these targets are the reduced-form…

半参数空间自回归预测模型AI 解读

In this paper we propose a semiparametric spatial autoregressive model that combines a linear covariate component with a nonparametrically estimated spatial term, allowing flexible dependence modeling without restrictive covariance structure while preserving interpretability. We establish asymptotic properties, including consistency and asymptotic normality, and evaluate performance through simulations and real data. Results show competitive predictive accuracy relative to…

GARCH-X 模型的一致变量选择AI 解读

In this paper we develop a consistent variable selection procedure for GARCH-X models that identifies the truly relevant exogenous covariates influencing volatility dynamics. The proposed method is based on a multiple hypothesis testing framework with Wald-type test statistics and the Benjamini-Yekutieli False Discovery Rate (FDR) procedure to control the proportion of false discoveries. We establish the consistency of the selection rule, showing that it asymptotically…

波动率恒定性的尖锐自适应非参数检验AI 解读

Based on discrete observations, we develop a test to infer if the volatility function $σ(\cdot)$ within the nonparametric Gaussian white noise model $dY_t = σ(t)dW_t$ is constant. The testing procedure is shown to be minimax-optimal and adaptive for infill asymptotics and these results entail that a deviation from the null hypothesis of constancy is best measured in terms of the ratio of $σ(t)$ and its $L^2$-average. The derivation of optimal constants requires the…

指数加权目标与指数族：滤波、预测和平滑AI 解读

We propose using a discounted version of a convex combination of the log-likelihood with the corresponding expected log-likelihood such that when they are maximized they yield a filter, predictor and smoother for time series. This paper then focuses on working out the implications of this in the case of the canonical exponential family. The results are simple exact filters, predictors and smoothers with linear recursions. A theory for these models is developed and the models…

零常返动态中的自组织状态切换AI 解读

Based on discrete observations $X_0,X_Δ,\dots, X_{nΔ}$ for $Δ=n^{-γ}$ with $γ\in [0,1)$ of the null-recurrent dynamic $dX_t = σ(X_t)dW_t$ with a Brownian motion $W$ and $σ(x)=α\mathbb{1}\{x<ρ\} + β\mathbb{1}\{x\geq ρ\}$, we derive rate of convergence and limiting distribution of the profile MLE for $ρ$. This includes low-frequency asymptotics ($γ=0$) for which the observations form a null-recurrent Markov chain. The derived non-standard limit is the argsup over a doubly…

无需截断的函数自回归：连续正则化方法AI 解读

Functional autoregressive models of order one (FAR(1)) are predominantly estimated by projecting curves onto leading functional principal components and fitting a vector autoregression in score space, requiring a discrete truncation level $K$ chosen by an \emph{ad hoc} variance threshold. We demonstrate via Monte Carlo experiments that the truncation choice is both consequential and highly regime dependent: the optimal $K$ can differ by an order of magnitude across…

含潜在因子的密度值向量自回归模型AI 解读

We propose a density-valued vector autoregressive model with latent factors for multivariate time series of density functions. Motivated by weekly regional distributions of SARS-CoV-2 cycle threshold (Ct) values in Brazil, we study their distributional dynamics across regions. The Ct value is the number of amplification cycles required for the viral signal to cross a detection threshold (lower Ct values correspond to higher viral load). We estimate each regional density by a…

时间序列函数型线性回归的同时推断AI 解读

We consider the problem of joint simultaneous confidence band (JSCB) construction for regression coefficient functions of time series scalar-on-function linear regression when the regression model is estimated by roughness penalization approach with flexible choices of orthonormal basis functions. A simple and unified multiplier bootstrap methodology is proposed for the JSCB construction which is shown to achieve the correct coverage probability asymptotically. Furthermore,…

TTCD：融合 Transformer 的非平稳时间序列因果发现AI 解读

The widespread availability of complex time series data in various domains such as environmental science, epidemiology, and economics demands robust causal discovery methods that can identify intricate contemporaneous and lagged relationships in non-stationary, nonlinear, and noisy settings. Existing constraint-based methods often rely heavily on conditional independence tests that degrade for limited data samples and complex distributions, while score-based methods impose…

Energy-Arena：面向实际运行能源预测的动态基准AI 解读

Energy forecasting research faces a persistent comparability gap that makes it difficult to measure consistent progress over time. Reported accuracy gains are often not directly comparable because models are evaluated under study-specific datasets, time periods, information sets, and scoring setups, while widely used benchmarks and competition datasets are typically tied to fixed historical windows. This paper introduces the Energy-Arena, a dynamic benchmarking platform for…

Neyman 刀切法：干扰下因果推断的设计型方差估计AI 解读

We propose a framework, the Neyman Jackknife, for conservative variance estimation in finite-population causal inference under interference. Our approach provides a general, flexible blueprint that enables conservative variance estimation whenever we are able to recompute our target estimator with some treatment assignments omitted. In classical settings, our approach recovers estimators closely related to the Neyman estimator under SUTVA and the Newey-West HAC variance…

具有大量预测变量的单位根时间序列模型选择AI 解读

This paper studies model selection for general unit-root time series, including the case with many exogenous predictors. We propose a new model selection algorithm, FHTD, that leverages forward stepwise regression (FSR), a high-dimensional information criterion (HDIC), a backward elimination method based on HDIC, and a data-driven thresholding (DDT) approach. Under some mild assumptions that allow for unknown locations and multiplicities of the characteristic roots on the…

含变量测量误差的 MIDAS 回归估计AI 解读

In this paper, a Mixed Data Sampling (MIDAS) model is studied when both low and high frequency variables are contaminated with measurement error. It is shown that the profile likelihood estimator becomes inconsistent in the presence of measurement error. Using the corrected score approach along with profile likelihood approach, a consistent estimator for parameters of MIDAS Measurement Error model is proposed. Small and large sample properties of the estimator are examined…

利用潜在高斯空间模型估计人为强迫对极端高温的因果归因AI 解读

Climate change has become a significant global concern due to its capacity to cause substantial disruption to daily life by increasing the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events. Given the rising trend of human interventions in the climate system over recent decades, this study aims to quantify the relative contribution of anthropogenic forcing to the increasing likelihood of climate extremes, with a particular emphasis on high-temperature extremes. Our analysis…

利用公司特征的机器学习非对称贝塔预测AI 解读

We demonstrate that machine learning methods provide a powerful framework for modelling conditional asymmetric risk. Using a large cross-section of US stocks and a comprehensive set of firm characteristics, we show that allowing for nonlinearities significantly increases the out-of-sample performance across a wide range of asymmetric beta measures and forecasting horizons. Trading frictions, followed by characteristics related to intangibles, momentum and growth, emerge as…

高维时间序列中因子调整向量自回归模型的厚尾稳健估计AI 解读

We study the problem of modelling high-dimensional, heavy-tailed time series data via a factor-adjusted vector autoregressive (VAR) model, which simultaneously accounts for pervasive co-movements of the variables by a handful of factors, as well as their remaining interconnectedness using a sparse VAR model. To handle heavy tails, we propose an element-wise data truncation step followed by a two-stage estimation procedure for estimating the latent factors and the VAR…

面向大规模时空数据的贝叶斯时变随机划分模型AI 解读

Spatio-temporal areal data can be seen as a collection of time series which are spatially correlated, according to a specific neighbouring structure. Motivated by a dataset on mobile phone usage in the Metropolitan area of Milan, Italy, we propose a semi-parametric hierarchical Bayesian model allowing for time-varying as well as spatial model-based clustering. Our approach incorporates the notion of regimes that describe changing patterns over work and night hours as well as…

动态误设模型的拟合：最优传输方法AI 解读

This paper considers filtering, parameter estimation, and testing for potentially dynamically misspecified state-space models. When dynamics are misspecified, filtered values of state variables often do not satisfy model restrictions, making them hard to interpret, and parameter estimates may fail to characterize the dynamics of filtered variables. To address this, a sequential optimal transportation approach is used to generate a model-consistent sample by mapping…

在线分布回归AI 解读

Large-scale streaming data are common in modern machine learning applications and have led to the development of online learning algorithms. Many fields, such as supply chain management, weather and meteorology, energy markets, and finance, have pivoted toward probabilistic forecasting. This results in the need not only for accurate learning of the expected value but also for learning the conditional heteroskedasticity and conditional moments. Against this backdrop, we…

高维分段局部平稳时间序列的复杂趋势推断AI 解读

This paper studies high-dimensional trend inference for piecewise smooth signals under nonstationary noise and asynchronous structural breaks by first detecting asynchronous changes without assuming stationarity and then further exploiting latent group structures to estimate trend functions. In the first step, we propose AJDN (Asynchronous Jump Detection under Nonstationary Noise), a multiscale framework for the identification and localization of jumps in high-dimensional…
