Book Empirical Likelihood and Quantile Methods for Time Series

Download or read book Empirical Likelihood and Quantile Methods for Time Series written by Yan Liu and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-12-05 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book integrates the fundamentals of asymptotic theory of statistical inference for time series under nonstandard settings, e.g., infinite variance processes, not only from the point of view of efficiency but also from that of robustness and optimality by minimizing prediction error. This is the first book to consider the generalized empirical likelihood applied to time series models in frequency domain and also the estimation motivated by minimizing quantile prediction error without assumption of true model. It provides the reader with a new horizon for understanding the prediction problem that occurs in time series modeling and a contemporary approach of hypothesis testing by the generalized empirical likelihood method. Nonparametric aspects of the methods proposed in this book also satisfactorily address economic and financial problems without imposing redundantly strong restrictions on the model, which has been true until now. Dealing with infinite variance processes makes analysis of economic and financial data more accurate under the existing results from the demonstrative research. The scope of applications, however, is expected to apply to much broader academic fields. The methods are also sufficiently flexible in that they represent an advanced and unified development of prediction form including multiple-point extrapolation, interpolation, and other incomplete past forecastings. Consequently, they lead readers to a good combination of efficient and robust estimate and test, and discriminate pivotal quantities contained in realistic time series models.

Book Non stationary Time Series Analysis  a Nonlinear Systems Approach

Download or read book Non stationary Time Series Analysis a Nonlinear Systems Approach written by Zhou Zhou and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nowadays, technological innovations have made it possible to collect a massive amount of data with complex structure over a relatively long period of time. For such data, many empirical evidences have shown that the traditional time series analysis tools for stationary processes are insufficient. As a consequence, there have been great demands and interests for theoretical and methodological advancements for non-stationary time series analysis. In this thesis, we shall propose a general class of non-stationary time series models, which we call locally stationary time series, and discuss the consequences of such modelling. In particular, inferences of quantile curves and conditional mean functions of such processes will be discussed in detail. Numerous real data examples shows the applicability of our theory and methodology in fields such as environmental sciences and financial econometrics.

Book Learning in Non Stationary Environments

Download or read book Learning in Non Stationary Environments written by Moamar Sayed-Mouchaweh and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-04-13 with total page 439 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent decades have seen rapid advances in automatization processes, supported by modern machines and computers. The result is significant increases in system complexity and state changes, information sources, the need for faster data handling and the integration of environmental influences. Intelligent systems, equipped with a taxonomy of data-driven system identification and machine learning algorithms, can handle these problems partially. Conventional learning algorithms in a batch off-line setting fail whenever dynamic changes of the process appear due to non-stationary environments and external influences. Learning in Non-Stationary Environments: Methods and Applications offers a wide-ranging, comprehensive review of recent developments and important methodologies in the field. The coverage focuses on dynamic learning in unsupervised problems, dynamic learning in supervised classification and dynamic learning in supervised regression problems. A later section is dedicated to applications in which dynamic learning methods serve as keystones for achieving models with high accuracy. Rather than rely on a mathematical theorem/proof style, the editors highlight numerous figures, tables, examples and applications, together with their explanations. This approach offers a useful basis for further investigation and fresh ideas and motivates and inspires newcomers to explore this promising and still emerging field of research.

Book Three Essays on Time Series Quantile Regression

Download or read book Three Essays on Time Series Quantile Regression written by Yini Wang and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation considers quantile regression models with nonstationary or nearly nonstationary time series. The first chapter outlines the thesis and discusses its theoretical and empirical contributions. The second chapter studies inference in quantile regressions with cointegrated variables allowing for multiple structural changes. The unknown break dates and regression coefficients are estimated jointly and consistently. The conditional quantile estimator has a nonstandard limit distribution. A fully modified estimator is proposed to remove the second-order bias and nuisance parameters and the resulting limit distribution is mixed normal. A simulation study shows that the fully modified quantile estimator has good finite sample properties. The model is applied to stock index data from the emerging markets of China and several mature markets. Financial market integration is found in some quantiles of the Chinese stock indices. The third chapter considers predictive quantile regression with a nearly integrated regressor. We derive nonstandard distributions for the quantile regression estimator and t-statistic in terms of functionals of diffusion processes. The critical values are found to depend on both the quantile of interest and the local-to-unity parameter, which is not consistently estimable. Based on these critical values, we propose a valid Bonferroni bounds test for quantile predictability with persistent regressors. We employ this new methodology to test the ability of many commonly employed and highly persistent regressors, such as the dividend yield, earnings price ratio, and T-bill rate, to predict the median, shoulders, and tails of the stock return distribution. Chapter Four proposes a cumulated sum (CUSUM) test for the null hypothesis of quantile cointegration. A fully modified quantile estimator is adopted for serial correlation and endogeneity corrections. The CUSUM statistic is composed of the partial sums of the residuals from the fully modified quantile regression. Under the null, the test statistic converges to a functional of Brownian motions. In the application to U.S. interest rates of different maturities, evidence in favor of the expectations hypothesis for the term structure is found in the central part of the distributions of the Treasury bill rate and financial commercial paper rate, but in the tails of the constant maturity rate distribution.

Book Inference for Single and Multiple Change Points in Time Series

Download or read book Inference for Single and Multiple Change Points in Time Series written by Venkata Jandhyala and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The article reviews methods of inference for single and multiple change-points in time series, when data are of retrospective (off-line) type. The inferential methods reviewed for a single change-point in time series include likelihood, Bayes, Bayes-type and some relevant non-parametric methods. Inference for multiple change-points requires methods that can handle large data sets and can be implemented efficiently for estimating the number of change-points as well as their locations. Our review in this important area focuses on some of the recent advances in this direction. Greater emphasis is placed on multivariate data while reviewing inferential methods for a single change-point in time series. Throughout the article, more attention is paid to estimation of unknown change-point(s) in time series, and this is especially true in the case of multiple change-points. Some specific data sets for which change-point modelling has been carried out in the literature are provided as illustrative examples under both single and multiple change-point scenarios.

Book A Change in Level of a Non stationary Time Series

Download or read book A Change in Level of a Non stationary Time Series written by G. E. P. Box and published by . This book was released on 1964 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Suppose that observations zsubt of a time series are available at equally spaced time intervals. The authors consider the problem of making inferences about a possible shift in level of the series associated with the occurrance of an event E at some particular time. For example, the observations might be of some economic indicator and one might suspect a change in level to occur in a particular interval because of a change in fiscal policy. Alternatively, zsubt could be the daily output of a chemical process and the event E might be a change in the supplier of raw material.
