A Non-parametric Test for Granger Causality in Distribution with Application to Financial Contagion
This paper introduces a kernel-based non-parametric inferential procedure to test for Granger causality in distribution. This test is a multivariate extension of the kernel-based Granger causality test in tail event introduced by Hong, Liu, and Wang (2009). The main advantage of this test is its ability to examine a large number of lags, with higher-order lags discounted. In addition, our test ...
متن کاملA Nonparametric Test for Financial Contagion with Application to the Canadian Banking System
This paper proposes a new test of financial contagion based on a nonparametric measure of the cross-market correlation. The test does not depend on the assumption that the data are drawn from a given probability distribution, therefore it allows for maximal flexibility in fitting into the data. Simulation studies show that our test has reasonable size and good power to detect financial contagio...
متن کاملA Nonparametric Copula Based Test for Conditional Independence with Applications to Granger Causality
This paper proposes a new nonparametric test for conditional independence, which is based on the comparison of Bernstein copula densities using the Hellinger distance. The test is easy to implement because it does not involve a weighting function in the test statistic, and it can be applied in general settings since there is no restriction on the dimension of the data. In fact, to apply the tes...
متن کاملAnalyzing information flow in brain networks with nonparametric Granger causality
Multielectrode neurophysiological recording and high-resolution neuroimaging generate multivariate data that are the basis for understanding the patterns of neural interactions. How to extract directions of information flow in brain networks from these data remains a key challenge. Research over the last few years has identified Granger causality as a statistically principled technique to furni...
متن کاملSurrogate-based test for Granger causality
A novel approach for testing the presence of Granger causality between two time series is proposed. The residue of the destination signal after self-prediction is computed, after which a crossprediction of the source signal over this residue is examined. In the absence of causality, there should be no cross-predictive power, due to which the performance of the cross-prediction system can be use...
