Variational Bayesian Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedastic Models
A variational Bayesian autoregressive conditional heteroskedastic (VB-ARCH) model is presented. The ARCH class of models is one of the most popular for economic time series modeling. It assumes that the variance of the time series is an autoregressive process. The variational Bayesian approach results in an approximation to the full posterior distribution over ARCH model parameters, and provide...

‎Recently a first-order Spatial Integer-valued Autoregressive‎ ‎SINAR(1,1) model was introduced to model spatial data that comes‎ ‎in counts citep{ghodsi2012}‎. ‎Some properties of this model‎ ‎have been established and the Yule-Walker estimator has been‎ ‎proposed for this model‎. ‎In this paper‎, ‎we introduce the...
متن کاملFixed-smoothing Asymptotics and Accurate F Approximation Using Vector Autoregressive Covariance Matrix Estimator
We develop a new asymptotic theory for autocorrelation robust tests using a vector autoregressive (VAR) covariance matrix estimator. In contrast to the conventional asymptotics where the VAR order goes to in nity but at a slower rate than the sample size, we have the VAR order grow at the same rate, as a xed fraction of the sample size. Under this xed-smoothing asymptotic speci cation, the as...
متن کاملA Modified Weighted Symmetric Estimator for a Gaussian First-Order Autoregressive Model with Additive Outliers
Guttman and Tiao [1], and Chang [2] showed that the effect of outliers may cause serious bias in estimating autocorrelations, partial correlations, and autoregressive moving average parameters (cited in Chang et al. [3]). This paper presents a modified weighted symmetric estimator for a Gaussian first-order autoregressive AR(1) model with additive outliers. We apply the recursive median adjustm...
متن کاملEnvironmental covariates of Anopheles arabiensis in a rice agroecosystem in Mwea, Central Kenya.
Water quality of aquatic habitats is an important determinant of female mosquito oviposition and successful larval development. This study examined the influence of environmental covariates on Anopheles arabiensis mosquito abundance in the Mwea Irrigation Scheme, Central Province of Kenya, prior to implementation of a malaria vector control program. Experimental rice plots were used to examine ...
