Tests of Equal Forecast Accuracy and Encompassing for Nested Models
We examine the asymptotic and finite-sample properties of tests for equal forecast accuracy and encompassing applied to 1-step ahead forecasts from nested parametric models. We first derive the asymptotic distributions of two standard tests and one new test of encompassing. Tables of asymptotically valid critical values are provided. Monte Carlo methods are then used to evaluate the size and po...
متن کاملTests of Equal Forecast Accuracy for Overlapping Models
This paper examines the asymptotic and nite-sample properties of tests of equal forecast accuracy when the models being compared are overlapping in the sense of Vuong (1989). Two models are overlapping when the true model contains just a subset of variables common to the larger sets of variables included in the competing forecasting models. We consider an out-of-sample version of the two-step ...
متن کاملPredictive Density Accuracy Tests∗
This paper outlines a testing procedure for assessing the relative out-of-sample predictive accuracy of multiple conditional distribution models, and surveys existing related methods in the area of predictive density evaluation, including methods based on the probability integral transform and the Kullback-Leibler Information Criterion. The procedure is closely related to Andrews’ (1997) condit...
متن کاملSome Recent Developments in Predictive Accuracy Testing With Nested Models and (Generic) Nonlinear Alternatives∗
Forecasters and applied econometricians are often interested in comparing the predictive accuracy of nested competing models. A leading example of nestedness is when predictive ability is equated with “out-of-sample Granger causality”. In particular, it is often of interest to assess whether historical data from one variable are useful when constructing a forecasting model for another variable,...
متن کاملPredictive accuracy for chaotic economic models
In this work we present a technique to obtain prediction intervals for chaotic data. Using nearest neighbors method we give estimates of local variance and percentiles of the prediction error distribution. This allows to define an interval containing a future value with a given probability. Its effectiveness is shown with data generated by a chaotic economic model. 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. ...
