Book Multivariate Modelling of Long Memory Processes With Common Components

Download or read book Multivariate Modelling of Long Memory Processes With Common Components written by Claudio Morana and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new approach to the modelling of common components in long memory processes is introduced. The approach is based on a two-step procedure relying on Fourier transform methods (first step) and principal components analysis (second step). Differently from other available methods, it allows the modelling of large data sets, both in terms of temporal and cross-sectional dimensions. Monte Carlo evidence, supporting the two-step estimation procedure, is also provided, as well as an empirical application to real data.

Book Statistical Modeling of Long Memory and Uncontrolled Effects in Neural Recordings

Download or read book Statistical Modeling of Long Memory and Uncontrolled Effects in Neural Recordings written by Alexander Greaves-Tunnell and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scientific analyses of time series data are often formalized as statistical investigations targeting one or more aspects of a complex underlying dependence structure. In the multivariate time series setting, there are three main aspects of interest: dependence over time, between components of the multivariate observations, and across repeated trials of the experimental protocol. Classical methods for these data may not be equipped to account for issues such as long-range dependence or unexpected variation across experimental settings. On the other hand, it can be difficult to evaluate whether more recent methods, such as those that make use of deep neural networks, have made quantitatively verifiable progress towards alleviating these issues. There is thus an opportunity to develop tools that extend principled statistical perspectives to meet the demand of current practices and problems in applied time series analysis. Motivated by these considerations, this dissertation develops methodology for the identification, estimation, and prediction of scientifically relevant features in the dependence structure of multivariate time series data. While these contributions apply to a wide range of data-analytical settings, corresponding to the broad prevalence of time series data across the sciences, they are motivated in particular by the challenges raised in the analysis of brain activity data. Neuroscientists measure the locally aggregated activity of cortical neurons as electromagnetic waveforms, recording from multiple locations on the brain surface and across repeated recording trials for various subjects or conditions. The resulting data raise challenging, scientifically important questions that can be phrased in terms of the three aspects of time series dependence enumerated above. We first address the topic of dependence over time through the lens of long-range dependent multivariate time series. We develop a statistical criterion for long memory in deep recurrent neural networks, thus offering a principled alternative to the heuristic evaluations based on synthetic data. We show negative results that suggest even deep recurrent neural network models explicitly designed to capture long-range dependencies fail to do so in a standard language modeling setting. This motivates the development of a model for multivariate long memory time series data, which we define in the frequency domain and apply to the analysis of brain activity in different states of consciousness. Second, we develop a framework to model changes in the dependence structure, or functional connectivity, in recordings obtained from a repeated-stimulation experiment in the rhesus macaque cortex. The analysis flexibly captures nonlinear effects and incorporates information about the connectivity between brain regions prior to stimulation. It is further equipped to address questions of stability, informativeness, and similarity among the learned features. The method improves the prediction accuracy of stimulation-induced connectivity change and provides new insights on the factors mediating this response. Finally, we continue our analysis of the brain-stimulation data to reveal previously unreported variation both between subjects and across experimental trials. We show that extensions to a simple regression model, either accounting for a more complex variance structure or estimating unmodeled confounders, can successfully mitigate the dramatic loss in predictive accuracy that results from applying the model to predict the results of previously unobserved experimental trials. Together, the contributions of this dissertation develop the capacity to detect, estimate, and predict scientifically meaningful aspects of the dependence structure in multivariate time series data.

  • Pages : 556 pages

Download or read book Models of Human Memory written by Donald A. Norman and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 556 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Models of Human Memory provides an overview of the state of knowledge on human memory models. The book begins with an introductory chapter on the basic stages of the memory system and the historical roots of memory models. The remaining chapters are organized into five parts. Part I on memory systems covers topics such as a system for perception and memory; multi-trace strength theory of memory; and a model for postperceptual verbal memory that postulates a single memory store, with multiple copies, called replicas, created in memory by rehearsal processes. Part II presents studies phoneme storage and word recognition. Part III on memory for associations examines the storage-retrieval theory for the memorizing processes and presents simple model of short-term memory (STM) for paired associates. Part IV on storage and retrieval mechanisms deals with mechanisms of repetition and rehearsal in short-term memory; models of recall and recognition; and memory search models. Part V presents a theory of human long-term associative memory; and examines conceptual and methodological interactions between information-processing investigations of cognitive activity and attempts to build models of memory.

Book Handbook of Environmental and Ecological Statistics

Download or read book Handbook of Environmental and Ecological Statistics written by Alan E. Gelfand and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-01-15 with total page 679 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook focuses on the enormous literature applying statistical methodology and modelling to environmental and ecological processes. The 21st century statistics community has become increasingly interdisciplinary, bringing a large collection of modern tools to all areas of application in environmental processes. In addition, the environmental community has substantially increased its scope of data collection including observational data, satellite-derived data, and computer model output. The resultant impact in this latter community has been substantial; no longer are simple regression and analysis of variance methods adequate. The contribution of this handbook is to assemble a state-of-the-art view of this interface. Features: An internationally regarded editorial team. A distinguished collection of contributors. A thoroughly contemporary treatment of a substantial interdisciplinary interface. Written to engage both statisticians as well as quantitative environmental researchers. 34 chapters covering methodology, ecological processes, environmental exposure, and statistical methods in climate science.

Book excerpt: The global financial crisis has sent shockwaves through the world’s economies, and its effects have been deep and wide-reaching. This book brings together a range of applied studies, covering a range of international and regional experience in the area of finance in the context of the global downturn. The volume includes an exploration of the impact of the crisis on capital markets, and how corporate stakeholders need to be more aware of the decision-making processes followed by corporate executives, as well as an analysis of the policy changes instituted by the Fed and their effects. Other issues covered include research into the approach of solvent banks to toxic assets, the determinants of US interest rate swap spreads during the crisis, a new approach for estimating Value-at-Risk, how distress and lack of active trading can result in systemic panic attacks, and the dynamic interactions between real house prices, consumption expenditure and output. Highlighting the global reach of the crisis, there is also coverage of recent changes in the cross-currency correlation structure, the costs attached to global banking financial integration, the interrelationships among global stock markets, inter-temporal interactions between stock return differential relative to the US and real exchange rate in the two most recent financial crises, and research into the recent slowdown in workers’ remittances. This book was published as a special issue of Applied Financial Economics.

Book Multivariate Modelling of Non Stationary Economic Time Series

Download or read book Multivariate Modelling of Non Stationary Economic Time Series written by John Hunter and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-05-08 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines conventional time series in the context of stationary data prior to a discussion of cointegration, with a focus on multivariate models. The authors provide a detailed and extensive study of impulse responses and forecasting in the stationary and non-stationary context, considering small sample correction, volatility and the impact of different orders of integration. Models with expectations are considered along with alternate methods such as Singular Spectrum Analysis (SSA), the Kalman Filter and Structural Time Series, all in relation to cointegration. Using single equations methods to develop topics, and as examples of the notion of cointegration, Burke, Hunter, and Canepa provide direction and guidance to the now vast literature facing students and graduate economists.
