Book On the Construction and Estimation of Asymmetric GARCH Models  and the Minimum Volume Sets for Time Series

Download or read book On the Construction and Estimation of Asymmetric GARCH Models and the Minimum Volume Sets for Time Series written by Jianing Di and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: The first part of the dissertation considers the modeling of financial volatility under a GARCH-type setup. The Generalized Autoregressive Conditionally Heteroscedastic (GARCH) model has earned popularity due to its ability to represent the features of financial returns based on simple model structures. However, new evidence suggests that certain stylized features, particularly the asymmetry of the financial returns, are not captured well by the regular GARCH model. This dissertation introduces two generalizations of the GARCH model that incorporate asymmetry novelly. The first approach is based on time-dependent coefficients of GARCH model that rely on smooth estimates of the local cross-correlation function, and is referred to as the Local Self-Adjusting Volatility (LSAV) model. This model generates stationary and ergodic return processes, and has close connection with the regime switching model. The other approach is based on generalization of the model via flexible semiparametric setup that does not require a parametric specification of the innovation distribution. Several semiparametric estimators are introduced. The proposed two-step estimator is shown to be consistent and asymptotically normal. The limiting distribution contains a vanishing bias term, and a variance-covariance matrix identical to that of the true MLE. The proposed one-step estimator follows the same type of limiting distribution, but with a different vanishing bias and a larger asymptotic variance-covariance matrix. This aspect of the model provides important insights into the efficiencies of the general class of semiparametric estimators of GARCH models. Numerical experiments are carried out to compare different estimators. The second part considers the construction of a minimum volume (MV) set of a multivariate stationary stochastic process. MIT sets provide a natural notion of the 'central mass' of a distribution and have recently become popular as a tool for the detection of anomalies in multivariate data. The proposed method is based on the concept of complexity-penalized estimation and has both desirable theoretical properties and a practical implementation. In particular, for a large class of processes, choice of the penalty reduces to the selection of a single tuning parameter. A data-dependent method for selecting this parameter is introduced. Numerical investigations are based on simulated data and real traffics of the Abilene network.

Download or read book Non Linear Time Series Models written by Jesse Mwangi and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2012 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In contrast to the traditional time series analysis, which focuses on the modeling based on the first two moments, the nonlinear GARCH models specifically take the effect of the higher moments into modeling consideration. This helps to explain and model volatility especially in financial time series. The GARCH models are able to capture financial characteristics such as volatility clustering, heavy tails and asymmetry. In much of the literature available for the GARCH models, the methods of estimating parameters include the MLE, GMM and LSE which have distributional and optimality limitations. In this book, the Optimal Estimating Function(EF) based techniques are derived for the GARCH models. The EF incorporate the Skewness and the Kurtosis moments which are common in financial data. It is shown using simulations that the Estimating Function (EF) method competes reasonably well with the MLE method especially for the non-normal data and hence provides an alternative estimation technique.Financial analysts, Econometricians and Time series scholars will find this book important in teaching and in risk computation

Download or read book Applied Time Series Analysis II written by David F. Findley and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2014-05-10 with total page 811 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Applied Time Series Analysis II contains the proceedings of the Second Applied Time Series Symposium Held in Tulsa, Oklahoma, on March 3-5, 1980. The symposium provided a forum for discussing significant advances in time series analysis and signal processing. Effective alternatives to the familiar least-square and maximum likelihood procedures are described, along with maximum likelihood procedures for modeling irregularly sampled series and for classifying non-stationary series. Comprised of 22 chapters, this volume begins with an introduction to the multidimensional filtering theory and presents specific case histories related to the multidimensional recursive filter stability problem; the least squares inverse problem; realization of filters; and spectral estimation. The unique properties of the three-dimensional wave equation are also considered. Subsequent chapters focus on high-resolution spectral estimators; time series analysis of geophysical inverse scattering problems; minimum entropy deconvolution; and fitting of a continuous time autoregression to discrete data. This monograph will appeal to students and practitioners in the fields of mathematics and statistics, electrical and electronics engineering, and information and computer sciences.

Book Extracting Knowledge From Time Series

Download or read book Extracting Knowledge From Time Series written by Boris P. Bezruchko and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-09-03 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mathematical modelling is ubiquitous. Almost every book in exact science touches on mathematical models of a certain class of phenomena, on more or less speci?c approaches to construction and investigation of models, on their applications, etc. As many textbooks with similar titles, Part I of our book is devoted to general qu- tions of modelling. Part II re?ects our professional interests as physicists who spent much time to investigations in the ?eld of non-linear dynamics and mathematical modelling from discrete sequences of experimental measurements (time series). The latter direction of research is known for a long time as “system identi?cation” in the framework of mathematical statistics and automatic control theory. It has its roots in the problem of approximating experimental data points on a plane with a smooth curve. Currently, researchers aim at the description of complex behaviour (irregular, chaotic, non-stationary and noise-corrupted signals which are typical of real-world objects and phenomena) with relatively simple non-linear differential or difference model equations rather than with cumbersome explicit functions of time. In the second half of the twentieth century, it has become clear that such equations of a s- ?ciently low order can exhibit non-trivial solutions that promise suf?ciently simple modelling of complex processes; according to the concepts of non-linear dynamics, chaotic regimes can be demonstrated already by a third-order non-linear ordinary differential equation, while complex behaviour in a linear model can be induced either by random in?uence (noise) or by a very high order of equations.

Book Time Series Analysis and Applications to Geophysical Systems

Download or read book Time Series Analysis and Applications to Geophysical Systems written by David Brillinger and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part of a two volume set based on a recent IMA program of the same name. The goal of the program and these books is to develop a community of statistical and other scientists kept up-to-date on developments in this quickly evolving and interdisciplinary field. Consequently, these books present recent material by distinguished researchers. Topics discussed in Part I include nonlinear and non- Gaussian models and processes (higher order moments and spectra, nonlinear systems, applications in astronomy, geophysics, engineering, and simulation) and the interaction of time series analysis and statistics (information model identification, categorical valued time series, nonparametric and semiparametric methods). Self-similar processes and long-range dependence (time series with long memory, fractals, 1/f noise, stable noise) and time series research common to engineers and economists (modeling of multivariate and possibly non-stationary time series, state space and adaptive methods) are discussed in Part II.

Book Forecasting  Structural Time Series Models and the Kalman Filter

Download or read book Forecasting Structural Time Series Models and the Kalman Filter written by Andrew C. Harvey and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1990-02-22 with total page 578 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Andrew Harvey sets out to provide a unified and comprehensive theory of structural time series models. Unlike the traditional ARIMA models, structural time series models consist explicitly of unobserved components, such as trends and seasonals, which have a direct interpretation. As a result the model selection methodology associated with structural models is much closer to econometric methodology. The link with econometrics is made even closer by the natural way in which the models can be extended to include explanatory variables and to cope with multivariate time series. From the technical point of view, state space models and the Kalman filter play a key role in the statistical treatment of structural time series models. The book includes a detailed treatment of the Kalman filter. This technique was originally developed in control engineering, but is becoming increasingly important in fields such as economics and operations research. This book is concerned primarily with modelling economic and social time series, and with addressing the special problems which the treatment of such series poses. The properties of the models and the methodological techniques used to select them are illustrated with various applications. These range from the modellling of trends and cycles in US macroeconomic time series to to an evaluation of the effects of seat belt legislation in the UK.

Book Periodic Time Series Models

Download or read book Periodic Time Series Models written by Philip Hans Franses and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2004-03-25 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book considers periodic time series models for seasonal data, characterized by parameters that differ across the seasons, and focuses on their usefulness for out-of-sample forecasting. Providing an up-to-date survey of the recent developments in periodic time series, the book presents a large number of empirical results. The first part of the book deals with model selection, diagnostic checking and forecasting of univariate periodic autoregressive models. Tests for periodic integration, are discussed, and an extensive discussion of the role of deterministic regressors in testing for periodic integration and in forecasting is provided. The second part discusses multivariate periodic autoregressive models. It provides an overview of periodic cointegration models, as these are the most relevant. This overview contains single-equation type tests and a full-system approach based on generalized method of moments. All methods are illustrated with extensive examples, and the book will be of interest to advanced graduate students and researchers in econometrics, as well as practitioners looking for an understanding of how to approach seasonal data.
