利用循环神经网络预测通货膨胀AI 解读

This paper applies a recurrent neural network, the LSTM, to forecast inflation. This is an appealing model for time series as it processes each time step sequentially and explicitly learns dynamic dependencies. The paper also explores the dimension reduction capability of the model to uncover economically-meaningful factors that can explain the inflation process. Results from an exercise with US data indicate that the estimated neural nets present competitive, but not…

基于稳健逐对角线低秩近似的多变量奇异谱分析AI 解读

Multivariate Singular Spectrum Analysis (MSSA) is a powerful and widely used nonparametric method for multivariate time series, which allows the analysis of complex temporal data from diverse fields such as finance, healthcare, ecology, and engineering. However, MSSA lacks robustness against outliers because it relies on the singular value decomposition, which is very sensitive to the presence of anomalous values. MSSA can then give biased results and lead to erroneous…

含加性噪声周期自回归模型的识别与验证：有限方差情形AI 解读

In this paper, we address the problem of modeling data with periodic autoregressive (PAR) time series and additive noise. In most cases, the data are processed assuming a noise-free model (i.e., without additive noise), which is not a realistic assumption in real life. The first two steps in PAR model identification are order selection and period estimation, so the main focus is on these issues. Finally, the model should be validated, so a procedure for analyzing the…

多维无限方差一阶周期自回归模型的修正 Yule–Walker 方法AI 解读

The time series with periodic behavior, such as the periodic autoregressive (PAR) models belonging to the class of the periodically correlated processes, are present in various real applications. In the literature, such processes were considered in different directions, especially with the Gaussian-distributed noise. However, in most of the applications, the assumption of the finite-variance distribution seems to be too simplified. Thus, one can consider the extensions of…

时间依赖下高维回归模型的变点推断AI 解读

This paper concerns about the limiting distributions of change point estimators, in a high-dimensional linear regression time series context, where a regression object $(y_t, X_t) \in \mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{R}^p$ is observed at every time point $t \in \{1, \ldots, n\}$. At unknown time points, called change points, the regression coefficients change, with the jump sizes measured in $\ell_2$-norm. We provide limiting distributions of the change point estimators in the…

利用样条对扩散过程进行灵活贝叶斯推断AI 解读

We introduce a flexible method to simultaneously infer both the drift and volatility functions of a discretely observed scalar diffusion. We introduce spline bases to represent these functions and develop a Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm to infer, a posteriori, the coefficients of these functions in the spline basis. A key innovation is that we use spline bases to model transformed versions of the drift and volatility functions rather than the functions themselves. The…

PaEBack：时间序列的帕累托有效近期子样本选择AI 解读

Time series forecasting has been a quintessential topic in data science, but traditionally, forecasting models have relied on extensive historical data. In this paper, we address a practical question: How much recent historical data is required to attain a targeted percentage of statistical prediction efficiency compared to the full time series? We propose the Pareto-Efficient Backsubsampling (PaEBack) method to estimate the percentage of the most recent data needed to…

高维低秩张量自回归时间序列建模AI 解读

Modern technological advances have enabled an unprecedented amount of structured data with complex temporal dependence, urging the need for new methods to efficiently model and forecast high-dimensional tensor-valued time series. This paper provides a new modeling framework to accomplish this task via autoregression (AR). By considering a low-rank Tucker decomposition for the transition tensor, the proposed tensor AR can flexibly capture the underlying low-dimensional tensor…

利用图形 LASSO 在结构突变下组合预测AI 解读

In this paper we develop a novel method of combining many forecasts based on a machine learning algorithm called Graphical LASSO (GL). We visualize forecast errors from different forecasters as a network of interacting entities and generalize network inference in the presence of common factor structure and structural breaks. First, we note that forecasters often use common information and hence make common mistakes, which makes the forecast errors exhibit common factor…

从自激与互激时间序列中发现因果图AI 解读

We present a generalized linear structural causal model, coupled with a novel data-adaptive linear regularization, to recover causal directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) from time series. By leveraging a recently developed stochastic monotone Variational Inequality (VI) formulation, we cast the causal discovery problem as a general convex optimization. Furthermore, we develop a non-asymptotic recovery guarantee and quantifiable uncertainty by solving a linear program to establish…

GNAR-edge：时变边权网络的自回归模型AI 解读

In economic and financial applications, there is often the need for analysing multivariate time series, comprising of time series for a range of quantities. In some applications such complex systems can be associated with some underlying network describing pairwise relationships among the quantities. Accounting for the underlying network structure for the analysis of this type of multivariate time series is required for assessing estimation error and can be particularly…

以深度学习时间序列因果推断量化北极放大的成因AI 解读

The warming of the Arctic, also known as Arctic amplification, is led by several atmospheric and oceanic drivers. However, the details of its underlying thermodynamic causes are still unknown. Inferring the causal effects of atmospheric processes on sea ice melt using fixed treatment effect strategies leads to unrealistic counterfactual estimations. Such models are also prone to bias due to time-varying confoundedness. Further, the complex non-linearity in Earth science data…

高维颗粒工具变量的推断理论AI 解读

The Granular Instrumental Variables (GIV) methodology exploits panels with factor error structures to construct instruments to estimate structural time series models with endogeneity even after controlling for latent factors. We extend the GIV methodology in several dimensions. First, we extend the identification procedure to a large $N$ and large $T$ framework, which depends on the asymptotic Herfindahl index of the size distribution of $N$ cross-sectional units. Second, we…

结构线性模型中非高斯维数的稳健估计AI 解读

Statistical identification of possibly non-fundamental SVARMA models requires structural errors: (i) to be an i.i.d process, (ii) to be mutually independent across components, and (iii) each of them must be non-Gaussian distributed. Hence, provided the first two requisites, it is crucial to evaluate the non-Gaussian identification condition. We address this problem by relating the non-Gaussian dimension of structural errors vector to the rank of a matrix built from the…

降秩包络向量自回归模型AI 解读

The standard vector autoregressive (VAR) models suffer from overparameterization which is a serious issue for high-dimensional time series data as it restricts the number of variables and lags that can be incorporated into the model. Several statistical methods, such as the reduced-rank model for multivariate (multiple) time series (Velu et al., 1986; Reinsel and Velu, 1998; Reinsel et al., 2022) and the Envelope VAR model (Wang and Ding, 2018), provide solutions for…

大数据分位数回归视角下宏观经济尾部风险的非线性AI 解读

Modeling and predicting extreme movements in GDP is notoriously difficult and the selection of appropriate covariates and/or possible forms of nonlinearities are key in obtaining precise forecasts. In this paper, our focus is on using large datasets in quantile regression models to forecast the conditional distribution of US GDP growth. To capture possible non-linearities, we include several nonlinear specifications. The resulting models will be huge dimensional and we thus…

This paper introduces a novel methodology that utilizes latency to unveil time-series dependence patterns. A customized statistical test detects memory dependence in event sequences by analyzing their inter-event time distributions. Synthetic experiments based on the renewal-aging property assess the impact of observer latency on the renewal property. Our test uncovers memory patterns across diverse time scales, emphasizing the event sequence's probability structure beyond…

With the rapid development of artificial intelligence, long short term memory (LSTM), one kind of recurrent neural network (RNN), has been widely applied in time series prediction. Like RNN, Transformer is designed to handle the sequential data. As Transformer achieved great success in Natural Language Processing (NLP), researchers got interested in Transformer's performance on time series prediction, and plenty of Transformer-based solutions on long time series forecasting…

用于动态认知模型贝叶斯估计的神经超统计方法AI 解读

Mathematical models of cognition are often memoryless and ignore potential fluctuations of their parameters. However, human cognition is inherently dynamic. Thus, we propose to augment mechanistic cognitive models with a temporal dimension and estimate the resulting dynamics from a superstatistics perspective. Such a model entails a hierarchy between a low-level observation model and a high-level transition model. The observation model describes the local behavior of a…

The purpose of this paper is to give an overview of the time series forecasting problem based on similarity of trajectories. Various methodologies are introduced and studied, and detailed discussions on hyperparameter optimization, outlier handling and distance measures are provided. The suggested new approaches involve variations in both the selection of similar trajectories and assembling the candidate forecasts. After forming a general framework, an experimental study is…

以分布为回归变量：温度对区域经济增长的非线性影响AI 解读

A nonlinear regression framework is proposed for time series and panel data for the situation where certain explanatory variables are available at a higher temporal resolution than the dependent variable. The main idea is to use the moments of the empirical distribution of these variables to construct regressors with the correct resolution. As the moments are likely to display nonlinear marginal and interaction effects, an artificial neural network regression function is…

主动配电网电力产消的超短期预测区间计算AI 解读

Microgrids and, in general, active distribution networks require ultra-short-term prediction, i.e., for sub-second time scales, for specific control decisions. Conventional forecasting methodologies are not effective at such time scales. To address this issue, we propose a non-parametric method for computing ultra short-term prediction intervals (PIs) of the power prosumption of generic electrical-distribution networks. The method groups historical observations into clusters…

用于时间序列极值建模与预测的变换线性新息算法AI 解读

The innovations algorithm is a classical recursive forecasting algorithm used in time series analysis. We develop the innovations algorithm for a class of nonnegative regularly varying time series models constructed via transformed-linear arithmetic. In addition to providing the best linear predictor, the algorithm also enables us to estimate parameters of transformed-linear regularly-varying moving average (MA) models, thus providing a tool for modeling. We first construct…

非线性置换 Granger 因果分析AI 解读

Granger causal inference is a contentious but widespread method used in fields ranging from economics to neuroscience. The original definition addresses the notion of causality in time series by establishing functional dependence conditional on a specified model. Adaptation of Granger causality to nonlinear data remains challenging, and many methods apply in-sample tests that do not incorporate out-of-sample predictability, leading to concerns of model overfitting. To allow…
