利用机器学习协调数字平台的横截面与时间层级预测AI 解读

Platform businesses operate on a digital core and their decision making requires high-dimensional accurate forecast streams at different levels of cross-sectional (e.g., geographical regions) and temporal aggregation (e.g., minutes to days). It also necessitates coherent forecasts across all levels of the hierarchy to ensure aligned decision making across different planning units such as pricing, product, controlling and strategy. Given that platform data streams feature…

函数系数网络自回归模型AI 解读

The paper introduces a flexible model for the analysis of multivariate nonlinear time series data. The proposed Functional Coefficients Network Autoregressive (FCNAR) model considers the response of each node in the network to depend in a nonlinear fashion to each own past values (autoregressive component), as well as past values of each neighbor (network component). Key issues of model stability/stationarity, together with model parameter identifiability, estimation and…

马尔可夫机制转换模型的贝叶斯滤波AI 解读

This paper presents a framework for empirical analysis of dynamic macroeconomic models using Bayesian filtering, with a specific focus on the state-space formulation of Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (DSGE) models with multiple regimes. We outline the theoretical foundations of model estimation, provide the details of two families of powerful multiple-regime filters, IMM and GPB, and construct corresponding multiple-regime smoothers. A simulation exercise, based on a…

具有长程依赖误差的流形函数型多元回归模型AI 解读

This paper considers the problem of manifold functional multiple regression with functional response, time--varying scalar regressors, and functional error term displaying Long Range Dependence (LRD) in time. Specifically, the error term is given by a manifold multifractionally integrated functional time series (see, e.g., Ovalle--Muñoz \& Ruiz--Medina, 2024)). The manifold is defined by a connected and compact two--point homogeneous space. The functional regression…

利用高斯过程处理混频数据的即时预测AI 解读

We develop Bayesian machine learning methods for mixed data sampling (MIDAS) regressions. This involves handling frequency mismatches and specifying functional relationships between many predictors and the dependent variable. We use Gaussian processes (GPs) and compress the input space with structured and unstructured MIDAS variants. This yields several versions of GP-MIDAS with distinct properties and implications, which we evaluate in short-horizon now- and forecasting…

无需稀疏性假设的高维协变量局部投影推断AI 解读

This paper presents a comprehensive local projections (LP) framework for estimating future responses to current shocks, robust to high-dimensional controls without relying on sparsity assumptions. The approach is applicable to various settings, including impulse response analysis and difference-in-differences (DiD) estimation. While methods like LASSO exist, they often assume most parameters are exactly zero, limiting their effectiveness in dense data generation processes. I…

存在不稳定性时的分位数格兰杰因果检验AI 解读

We propose a new framework for assessing Granger causality in quantiles in unstable environments, for a fixed quantile or over a continuum of quantile levels. Our proposed test statistics are consistent against fixed alternatives, they have nontrivial power against local alternatives, and they are pivotal in certain important special cases. In addition, we show the validity of a bootstrap procedure when asymptotic distributions depend on nuisance parameters. Monte Carlo…

mshw：基于多重季节 Holt–Winters 模型的短期电力需求预测库AI 解读

Transmission system operators have a growing need for more accurate forecasting of electricity demand. Current electricity systems largely require demand forecasting so that the electricity market establishes electricity prices as well as the programming of production units. The companies that are part of the electrical system use exclusive software to obtain predictions, based on the use of time series and prediction tools, whether statistical or artificial intelligence.…

单变量与多变量观测时序中 Lévy 驱动随机系统的最大似然估计AI 解读

Literature is full of inference techniques developed to estimate the parameters of stochastic dynamical systems driven by the well-known Brownian noise. Such diffusion models are often inappropriate models to properly describe the dynamics reflected in many real-world data which are dominated by jump discontinuities of various sizes and frequencies. To account for the presence of jumps, jump-diffusion models are introduced and some inference techniques are developed.…

用于脑电时间序列分析的流形值模型AI 解读

We propose a model for time series taking values on a Riemannian manifold and fit it to time series of covariance matrices derived from EEG data for patients suffering from epilepsy. The aim of the study is two-fold: to develop a model with interpretable parameters for different possible modes of EEG dynamics, and to explore the extent to which modelling results are affected by the choice of manifold and its associated geometry. The model specifies a distribution for the…

高维矩阵值序列的建模与学习AI 解读

We propose a new matrix factor model, named RaDFaM, which is strictly derived based on the general rank decomposition and assumes a structure of a high-dimensional vector factor model for each basis vector. RaDFaM contributes a novel class of low-rank latent structure that makes tradeoff between signal intensity and dimension reduction from the perspective of tensor subspace. Based on the intrinsic separable covariance structure of RaDFaM, for a collection of matrix-valued…

高维函数型时间序列预测：地区年龄别死亡率应用AI 解读

We study the modeling and forecasting of high-dimensional functional time series (HDFTS), which can be cross-sectionally correlated and temporally dependent. We introduce a decomposition of the HDFTS into two distinct components: a deterministic component and a residual component that varies over time. The decomposition is derived through the estimation of two-way functional analysis of variance. A functional time series forecasting method, based on functional principal…

高斯与计数预测经协调后的分布性质AI 解读

Reconciliation enforces coherence between hierarchical forecasts, in order to satisfy a set of linear constraints. While most works focus on the reconciliation of the point forecasts, we consider probabilistic reconciliation and we analyze the properties of the distributions reconciled via conditioning. We provide a formal analysis of the variance of the reconciled distribution, treating separately the case of Gaussian forecasts and count forecasts. We also study the…
