Empirical Likelihood Estimation of Agent-based Models
This paper addresses a major methodological issue of Agent-Based (AB) models which has prevented them from being accepted by the mainstream research community. Any scienti c model or theory has to be testable for example by comparing predictions which are contingent on the model against empirical observations. If they coincide the model can be considered as provisionally true, else it is falsi ...
متن کاملcomparison of conventional bayesian and approximate bayesian approaches in estimation of variance components using animal models
animal models are used to model the observations of animal performance that are genetically dependent.these models are considered as generalized linear mixed models and the genetic correlation structure of data is considered through random effects of breeding values. one goal of the mentioned models is to estimate variance components. in this research, an approximate bayesian approach presented...
متن کاملA Bayesian Approach to the Validation of Agent-Based Models
The rapid expansion of agent-based simulation modeling has left the theory of model validation behind its practice. Much of the literature emphasizes the use of empirical data for both calibrating and validating agent-based models. But a great deal of the practical effort in developing models goes into making sense of expert opinions about a modeling domain. Here we present a unifying view whic...
متن کاملSimulation-Based Bayesian Estimation of Affine Term Structure Models
This paper demonstrates the application of Bayesian simulation-based estimation to a class of interest rate models known as Affine Term Structure (ATS) models. The technique used is based on a Markov Chain Monte Carlo algorithm, with the discrete observations on yields augmented by additional higher frequency latent data. The introduction of augmented yield data reduces the bias associated with...
متن کاملBayesian range-based estimation of stochastic volatility models
Alizadeh, Brandt, and Diebold [2002. Journal of Finance 57, 1047–1091] propose estimating stochastic volatility models by quasi-maximum likelihood using data on the daily range of the log asset price process. We suggest a related Bayesian procedure that delivers exact likelihood based inferences. Our approach also incorporates data on the daily return and accommodates a nonzero drift. We illust...
