函数型非线性外生输入自回归模型的代理建模AI 解读

We propose a novel functional approach to surrogate modeling of dynamical systems with exogenous inputs. This approach, named Functional Nonlinear AutoRegressive with eXogenous inputs (F-NARX), approximates the system response based on temporal features of the exogenous inputs and the system response. This marks a major step away from the discrete-time-centric approach of classical NARX models, which determines the relationship between selected time steps of the input/output…

绿色泡沫：检测与传播的四阶段范式AI 解读

Climate change has emerged as a significant global concern, attracting increasing attention worldwide. While green bubbles may be examined through a social bubble hypothesis, it is essential not to neglect a Climate Minsky moment triggered by sudden asset price changes. The significant increase in green investments highlights the urgent need for a comprehensive understanding of these market dynamics. Therefore, the current paper introduces a novel paradigm for studying such…

This research investigates the critical role of machine learning (ML) in understanding and managing inflation in Ghana, emphasizing its significance for the country's economic stability and growth. Utilizing a comprehensive dataset spanning from 2010 to 2022, the study aims to employ advanced ML models, particularly those adept in time series forecasting, to predict future inflation trends. The methodology…

panelPomp：在 R 中利用部分可观测马尔可夫过程分析面板数据AI 解读

Panel data arise when time series measurements are collected from multiple, dynamically independent but structurally related systems. Each system's time series can be modeled as a partially observed Markov process (POMP), and the ensemble of these models is called a PanelPOMP. If the time series are relatively short, statistical inference for each time series must draw information from across the entire panel. The component systems in the panel are called units; model…

季节数据的时间扭曲模型：独角鲸牙年龄估计应用AI 解读

Signals with varying periodicity frequently appear in real-world phenomena, necessitating the development of efficient modelling techniques to map the measured nonlinear timeline to linear time. Here we propose a regression model that allows for a representation of periodic and dynamic patterns observed in time series data. The model incorporates a hidden strictly positive stochastic process that represents the instantaneous frequency, allowing the model to adapt and…

预测性 CoVaR 回归中对持久性稳健的结构突变检测AI 解读

Forecasting risk (as measured by quantiles) and systemic risk (as measured by Adrian and Brunnermeiers's (2016) CoVaR) is important in economics and finance. However, past research has shown that predictive relationships may be unstable over time. Therefore, this paper develops structural break tests in predictive quantile and CoVaR regressions. These tests can detect changes in the forecasting power of covariates, and are based on the principle of self-normalization. We…

基于共同结构变化的时间序列模型聚类AI 解读

We propose a novel model-based clustering approach for samples of time series. We assume as a unique commonality that two observations belong to the same group if structural changes in their behaviours happen at the same time. We resort to a latent representation of structural changes in each time series based on random orders to induce ties among different observations. Such an approach results in a general modeling strategy and can be combined with many time-dependent…

区间型时间序列的结构变化检测与变点估计AI 解读

This paper addresses the open problem of conducting change-point analysis for interval-valued time series data using the maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) framework. Motivated by financial time series, we analyze data that includes daily opening (O), up (U), low (L), and closing (C) values, rather than just a closing value as traditionally used. To tackle this, we propose a fundamental model based on stochastic differential equations, which also serves as a transformation…

局部平稳过程与二维白噪声的渐近等价性AI 解读

We consider a general class of statistical experiments, in which an $n$-dimensional centered Gaussian random variable is observed and its covariance matrix is the parameter of interest. The covariance matrix is assumed to be well-approximable in a linear space of lower dimension $K_n$ with eigenvalues uniformly bounded away from zero and infinity. We prove asymptotic equivalence of this experiment and a class of $K_n$-dimensional Gaussian models with informative expectation…

积分扩散过程非参数估计量的一致收敛速度AI 解读

The nonparametric estimation of integrated diffusion processes has been extensively studied, with most existing research focusing on pointwise convergence. This paper is the first to establish uniform convergence rates for the Nadaraya-Watson estimators of their coefficients. We derive these rates over unbounded support under the assumptions of a vanishing observation interval and a long time horizon. Our findings serve as essential tools for specification testing and…

基于极大似然估计的带标记 Hawkes 过程检验方法AI 解读

The Hawkes model is a past-dependent point process, widely used in various fields for modeling temporal clustering of events. Extending this framework, the multidimensional marked Hawkes process incorporates multiple interacting event types and additional marks, enhancing its capability to model complex dependencies in multivariate time series data. However, increasing the complexity of the model also increases the computational cost of the associated estimation methods and…

随机迭代中 α 混合性质的传递及其排队论应用AI 解读

Nonlinear time series models with exogenous regressors are essential in econometrics, queuing theory, and machine learning, though their statistical analysis remains incomplete. Key results, such as the law of large numbers and the functional central limit theorem, are known for weakly dependent variables. We demonstrate the transfer of mixing properties from the exogenous regressor to the response via coupling arguments. Additionally, we study Markov chains in random…

联立图式动态建模AI 解读

We review theory and methodology of the class of simultaneous graphical dynamic linear models (SGDLMs) that provide flexibility, parsimony and scalability of multivariate time series analysis. Discussion includes core theoretical aspects and summaries of existing Bayesian methodology for forward filtering and forecasting with SGDLMs. The review is complemented by new theory linking dynamic graphical and factor models, and extensions of the Bayesian methodology. This…

矩阵时间序列 CP 因子模型的识别与估计AI 解读

We propose a new method for identifying and estimating the CP-factor models for matrix time series. Unlike the generalized eigenanalysis-based method of Chang et al. (2023) for which the convergence rates of the associated estimators may suffer from small eigengaps as the asymptotic theory is based on some matrix perturbation analysis, the proposed new method enjoys faster convergence rates which are free from any eigengaps. It achieves this by turning the problem into a…

欧元区及成员国大型数据集与共同货币政策的动态效应AI 解读

We introduce EA-MD-QD, a new publicly available dataset comprising 1136 macroeconomic time series for the euro area (EA) and its ten largest member countries observed at monthly or quarterly frequency. Since January 2024, EA-MD-QD has been updated monthly and continuously revised, providing a valuable resource for policy analysis in the EA. Using EA-MD-QD, we study country-specific impulse responses to an EA-wide monetary policy shock. Results reveal moderate yet significant…

由随机线性扩展推断偏序：十二世纪王室文书中的权力关系AI 解读

In the eleventh and twelfth centuries in England, Wales and Normandy, Royal Acta were legal documents in which witnesses were listed in order of social status. Any bishops present were listed as a group. For our purposes, each witness-list is an ordered permutation of bishop names with a known date or date-range. Changes over time in the order bishops are listed may reflect changes in their authority. Historians would like to detect and quantify these changes. There is no…

Deflated HeteroPCA：克服异方差主成分分析的病态条件数问题AI 解读

This paper is concerned with estimating the column subspace of a low-rank matrix $\boldsymbol{X}^\star \in \mathbb{R}^{n_1\times n_2}$ from contaminated data. How to obtain optimal statistical accuracy while accommodating the widest range of signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs) becomes particularly challenging in the presence of heteroskedastic noise and unbalanced dimensionality (i.e., $n_2\gg n_1$). While the state-of-the-art algorithm $\textsf{HeteroPCA}$ emerges as a powerful…

高效的非对称因果关系检验AI 解读

Asymmetric causality tests are increasingly gaining popularity in different scientific fields. This approach corresponds better to reality since logical reasons behind asymmetric behavior exist and need to be considered in empirical investigations. Hatemi-J (2012) introduced the asymmetric causality tests via partial cumulative sums for positive and negative components of the variables operating within the vector autoregressive (VAR) model. However, since the residuals…
