空间聚类空间自回归模型及其在欧洲农业市场集中度中的应用AI 解读

In this paper, we present an extension of the spatially-clustered linear regression models, namely, the spatially-clustered spatial autoregression (SCSAR) model, to deal with spatial heterogeneity issues in clustering procedures. In particular, we extend classical spatial econometrics models, such as the spatial autoregressive model, the spatial error model, and the spatially-lagged model, by allowing the regression coefficients to be spatially varying according to a…

时间序列生成学习及脑影像分析应用AI 解读

This paper focuses on the analysis of sequential image data, particularly brain imaging data such as MRI, fMRI, CT, with the motivation of understanding the brain aging process and neurodegenerative diseases. To achieve this goal, we investigate image generation in a time series context. Specifically, we formulate a min-max problem derived from the $f$-divergence between neighboring pairs to learn a time series generator in a nonparametric manner. The generator enables us to…

状态数未知且状态参数采用排斥先验的隐马尔可夫模型AI 解读

Hidden Markov models (HMMs) offer a robust and efficient framework for analyzing time series data, modelling both the underlying latent state progression over time and the observation process, conditional on the latent state. However, a critical challenge lies in determining the appropriate number of underlying states, often unknown in practice. In this paper, we employ a Bayesian framework, treating the number of states as a random variable and employing reversible jump…

基于有效连接的癫痫发作脑层级变化拓扑分析AI 解读

Traditional Topological Data Analysis (TDA) methods, such as Persistent Homology (PH), rely on distance measures (e.g., cross-correlation, partial correlation, coherence, and partial coherence) that are symmetric by definition. While useful for studying topological patterns in functional brain connectivity, the main limitation of these methods is their inability to capture the directional dynamics - which is crucial for understanding effective brain connectivity. We propose…

离散采样周期性长记忆过程的滤波型估计AI 解读

The generalized filtered method of moments was developed in the recent papers by Alomari et al., 2020, and Ayache et al., 2022. It used functional data obtained from continuously sampled cyclic long-memory stochastic processes to simultaneously estimate their parameters. However, the majority of applications deal with discretely sampled processes or time series. This paper extends the approach to accommodate discrete-time scenarios. It proves that the new discrete estimates…

函数型数据的时空因子模型及人口地图预测应用AI 解读

The proliferation of mobile devices has led to the collection of large amounts of population data. This situation has prompted the need to utilize this rich, multidimensional data in practical applications. In response to this trend, we have integrated functional data analysis (FDA) and factor analysis to address the challenge of predicting hourly population changes across various districts in Tokyo. Specifically, by assuming a Gaussian process, we avoided the large…

参数不稳定下的高维线性回归变量选择AI 解读

This paper considers the problem of variable selection allowing for parameter instability. It distinguishes between signal and pseudo-signal variables that are correlated with the target variable, and noise variables that are not, and investigate the asymptotic properties of the One Covariate at a Time Multiple Testing (OCMT) method proposed by Chudik et al. (2018) under parameter insatiability. It is established that OCMT continues to asymptotically select an approximating…

研发支出的即时预测：机器学习方法AI 解读

Macroeconomic data are crucial for monitoring countries' performance and driving policy. However, traditional data acquisition processes are slow, subject to delays, and performed at a low frequency. We address this 'ragged-edge' problem with a two-step framework. The first step is a supervised learning model predicting observed low-frequency figures. We propose a neural-network-based nowcasting model that exploits mixed-frequency, high-dimensional data. The second step uses…

用于高维协方差矩阵的层级 DCC-HEAVY 模型AI 解读

We introduce a HD DCC-HEAVY class of hierarchical-type factor models for high-dimensional covariance matrices, employing the realized measures built from higher-frequency data. The modelling approach features straightforward estimation and forecasting schemes, independent of the cross-sectional dimension of the assets under consideration, and accounts for sophisticated asymmetric dynamics in the covariances. Empirical analyses suggest that the HD DCC-HEAVY models have a…

粗糙波动率的非参数检验AI 解读

We develop a nonparametric test for deciding whether volatility of an asset follows a standard semimartingale process, with paths of finite quadratic variation, or a rough process with paths of infinite quadratic variation. The test utilizes the fact that volatility is rough if and only if volatility increments are negatively autocorrelated at high frequencies. It is based on the sample autocovariance of increments of spot volatility estimates computed from high-frequency…

多元自回归二元模型的理论与推断：生态出现数据应用AI 解读

We introduce a general class of autoregressive models for studying the dynamic of multivariate binary time series with stationary exogenous covariates. Using a high-level set of assumptions, we show that existence of a stationary path for such models is almost automatic and does not require parameter restrictions when the noise term is not compactly supported. We then study in details statistical inference in a dynamic version of a multivariate probit type model, as a…

通过高维贝叶斯协整构建低波动股票组合AI 解读

We employ a Bayesian modelling technique for high dimensional cointegration estimation to construct low volatility portfolios from a large number of stocks. The proposed Bayesian framework effectively identifies sparse and important cointegration relationships amongst large baskets of stocks across various asset spaces, resulting in portfolios with reduced volatility. Such cointegration relationships persist well over the out-of-sample testing time, providing practical…

Uncertainty quantification in prediction presents a compelling challenge with vast applications across various domains, including biomedical science, economics, and weather forecasting. There exists a wide array of methods for constructing prediction intervals, such as quantile regression and conformal prediction. However, practitioners often face the challenge of selecting the most suitable method for a specific real-world data problem. In response to this dilemma, we…

通过相关系数多重检验正则化股票收益协方差矩阵AI 解读

This paper develops a large-scale inference approach for the regularization of stock return covariance matrices. The framework allows for the presence of heavy tails and multivariate GARCH-type effects of unknown form among the stock returns. The approach involves simultaneous testing of all pairwise correlations, followed by setting non-statistically significant elements to zero. This adaptive thresholding is achieved through sign-based Monte Carlo resampling within…

平稳时间序列模型创新项正态性的信息矩阵检验AI 解读

This study focuses on the problem of testing for normality of innovations in stationary time series models.To achieve this, we introduce an information matrix (IM) based test. While the IM test was originally developed to test for model misspecification, our study addresses that the test can also be used to test for the normality of innovations in various time series models. We provide sufficient conditions under which the limiting null distribution of the test statistics…

通胀即时预测中的 MIDAS 与 Lag-Llama 模型比较AI 解读

Inflation is one of the most important economic indicators closely watched by both public institutions and private agents. This study compares the performance of a traditional econometric model, Mixed Data Sampling regression, with one of the newest developments from the field of Artificial Intelligence, a foundational time series forecasting model based on a Long short-term memory neural network called Lag-Llama, in their ability to nowcast the Harmonized Index of Consumer…

通过最优传输自动校正异常值AI 解读

In this paper, we propose a novel conceptual framework to detect outliers using optimal transport with a concave cost function. Conventional outlier detection approaches typically use a two-stage procedure: first, outliers are detected and removed, and then estimation is performed on the cleaned data. However, this approach does not inform outlier removal with the estimation task, leaving room for improvement. To address this limitation, we propose an automatic outlier…

降秩矩阵自回归模型：面向中等维度的方法AI 解读

Reduced-rank regressions are powerful tools used to identify co-movements within economic time series. However, this task becomes challenging when we observe matrix-valued time series, where each dimension may have a different co-movement structure. We propose reduced-rank regressions with a tensor structure for the coefficient matrix to provide new insights into co-movements within and between the dimensions of matrix-valued time series. Moreover, we relate the co-movement…

检验因子增强回归中的稀疏特异成分AI 解读

We propose a novel bootstrap test of a dense model, namely factor regression, against a sparse plus dense alternative augmenting model with sparse idiosyncratic components. The asymptotic properties of the test are established under time series dependence and polynomial tails. We outline a data-driven rule to select the tuning parameter and prove its theoretical validity. In simulation experiments, our procedure exhibits high power against sparse alternatives and low power…

高维函数型时间序列的因子建模AI 解读

Many economic and scientific problems involve the analysis of high-dimensional functional time series, where the number of functional variables $p$ diverges as the number of serially dependent observations $n$ increases. In this paper, we present a novel functional factor model for high-dimensional functional time series that maintains and makes use of the functional and dynamic structure to achieve great dimension reduction and find the latent factor structure. To estimate…

The modelling of multivariate extreme events is important in a wide variety of applications, including flood risk analysis, metocean engineering and financial modelling. A wide variety of statistical techniques have been proposed in the literature; however, many such methods are limited in the forms of dependence they can capture, or make strong parametric assumptions about data structures. In this article, we introduce a novel inference framework for multivariate extremes…

高维时间序列的动态矩阵因子模型AI 解读

Matrix time series, which consist of matrix-valued data observed over time, are prevalent in various fields such as economics, finance, and engineering. Such matrix time series data are often observed in high dimensions. Matrix factor models are employed to reduce the dimensionality of such data, but they lack the capability to make predictions without specified dynamics in the latent factor process. To address this issue, we propose a two-component dynamic matrix factor…

非平稳重尾时间序列的统计推断AI 解读

We consider the problem of inference for non-stationary time series with heavy-tailed error distribution. Under a time-varying linear process framework we show that there exists a suitable local approximation by a stationary process with heavy-tails. This enable us to introduce a local approximation-based estimator which estimates consistently time-varying parameters of the model at hand. To develop a robust method, we also suggest a self-weighing scheme which is shown to…

三角函数季节成分模型及其在双重季节性时间序列中的应用AI 解读

A finite trigonometric series model for seasonal time series is considered in this paper. This component model is shown to be useful, in particular, for the modeling of time series with two types of seasonality, a long-period and a short period. This component model is also shown to be effective in the case of ordinary seasonal time series with only one seasonal component, if the seasonal pattern is simple and can be well represented by a small number of trigonometric…
