时变跨价格溢出的贝叶斯马尔可夫转换空间自回归模型AI 解读

The spatial autoregressive (SAR) model is extended by introducing a Markov switching dynamics for the weight matrix and spatial autoregressive parameter. The framework enables the identification of regime-specific connectivity patterns and strengths and the study of the spatiotemporal propagation of shocks in a system with a time-varying spatial multiplier matrix. The proposed model is applied to disaggregated CPI data from 15 EU countries to examine cross-price…

面向单通道应用的潜变量模型谱正则化框架AI 解读

Latent variable models (LVMs) are commonly used to capture the underlying dependencies, patterns, and hidden structure in observed data. Source duplication is a by-product of the data hankelisation pre-processing step common to single channel LVM applications, which hinders practical LVM utilisation. In this article, a Python package titled spectrally-regularised-LVMs is presented. The proposed package addresses the source duplication issue via the addition of a novel…

日前电价预测的自适应标准化方法AI 解读

The study of Day-Ahead prices in the electricity market is one of the most popular problems in time series forecasting. Previous research has focused on employing increasingly complex learning algorithms to capture the sophisticated dynamics of the market. However, there is a threshold where increased complexity fails to yield substantial improvements. In this work, we propose an alternative approach by introducing an adaptive standardisation to mitigate the effects of…

时序机制区间的因果结构学习AI 解读

Understanding causal relationships in multivariate time series is essential for predicting and controlling dynamic systems in fields like economics, neuroscience, and climate science. However, existing causal discovery methods often assume stationarity, limiting their effectiveness when time series consist of sequential regimes, consecutive temporal segments with unknown boundaries and changing causal structures. In this work, we firstly introduce a framework to describe and…

条件函数型稀疏性下的大型协方差矩阵函数因子引导估计AI 解读

This paper addresses the fundamental task of estimating covariance matrix functions for high-dimensional functional data/functional time series. We consider two functional factor structures encompassing either functional factors with scalar loadings or scalar factors with functional loadings, and postulate functional sparsity on the covariance of idiosyncratic errors after taking out the common unobserved factors. To facilitate estimation, we rely on the spiked matrix model…

重审近似因子模型主成分估计量的渐近理论AI 解读

It is well known that approximate factor models exhibit rotation indeterminacy. Principal component (PC) estimators are typically analyzed relative to a rotated factor-loading representation, but the commonly used rotation depends on the estimator itself, leaving unclear which fixed population parameters are estimated. We show that any starting representation of the common component can be mapped by a rotation matrix $\bH$, constructed without using the PC estimator or the…

混合因果—非因果、可逆—不可逆模型的谱识别与估计AI 解读

This paper introduces new techniques for estimating, identifying and simulating mixed causal-noncausal invertible-noninvertible models. We propose a framework that integrates high-order cumulants, merging both the spectrum and bispectrum into a single estimation function. The model that most adequately represents the data under the assumption that the error term is i.i.d. is selected. Our Monte Carlo study reveals unbiased parameter estimates and a high frequency with which…

非参数自回归的多步预测区间：自助法一致性、去偏与估计变异AI 解读

To address the difficult problem of multi-step ahead prediction of non-parametric autoregressions, we consider a forward bootstrap approach. Employing a local constant estimator, we can analyze a general type of non-parametric time series model, and show that the proposed point predictions are consistent with the true optimal predictor. We construct a quantile prediction interval that is asymptotically valid. Moreover, using a debiasing technique, we can asymptotically…

动态异质面板长期关系的合并 Bewley 估计量AI 解读

Using a transformation of the autoregressive distributed lag model due to Bewley, a novel pooled Bewley (PB) estimator of long-run coefficients for dynamic panels with heterogeneous short-run dynamics is proposed. The PB estimator is directly comparable to the widely used Pooled Mean Group (PMG) estimator, and is shown to be consistent and asymptotically normal. Monte Carlo simulations show good small sample performance of PB compared to the existing estimators in the…

时间序列的在线自助法AI 解读

Resampling methods such as the bootstrap have proven invaluable in the field of machine learning. However, the applicability of traditional bootstrap methods is limited when dealing with large streams of dependent data, such as time series or spatially correlated observations. In this paper, we propose a novel bootstrap method that is designed to account for data dependencies and can be executed online, making it particularly suitable for real-time applications. This method…

DAMNETS：生成马尔可夫网络时间序列的深度自回归模型AI 解读

Generative models for network time series (also known as dynamic graphs) have tremendous potential in fields such as epidemiology, biology and economics, where complex graph-based dynamics are core objects of study. Designing flexible and scalable generative models is a very challenging task due to the high dimensionality of the data, as well as the need to represent temporal dependencies and marginal network structure. Here we introduce DAMNETS, a scalable deep generative…

通过耦合自回归推断结构化种群中的随机群体互动AI 解读

The internal behaviour of a population is an important feature to take account of when modelling their dynamics. In line with kin selection theory, many social species tend to cluster into distinct groups in order to enhance their overall population fitness. Temporal interactions between populations are often modelled using classical mathematical models, but these sometimes fail to delve deeper into the, often uncertain, relationships within populations. Here, we introduce a…

多变量平稳与非平稳时间序列的核联合独立性检验AI 解读

Multivariate time series data that capture the temporal evolution of interconnected systems are ubiquitous in diverse areas. Understanding the complex relationships and potential dependencies among co-observed variables is crucial for the accurate statistical modelling and analysis of such systems. Here, we introduce kernel-based statistical tests of joint independence in multivariate time series by extending the $d$-variable Hilbert-Schmidt independence criterion (dHSIC) to…

Lee–Carter 模型族的稳健参数估计：概率主成分方法AI 解读

The well-known Lee-Carter model uses a bilinear form $\log(m_{x,t})=a_x+b_xk_t$ to represent the log mortality rate and has been widely researched and developed over the past thirty years. However, there has been little attention being paid to the robustness of the parameters against outliers, especially when estimating $b_x$. In response, we propose a robust estimation method for a wide family of Lee-Carter-type models, treating the problem as a Probabilistic Principal…
