Impulse Response Functions in Generalized Bayesian Autoregressive Models
Vector autoregressions (VAR) are extensively used to model economic time series. The large number of parameters is the main diicult with VAR models, however. To overcome this, Litterman (1986) suggests to use a Bayesian strategy to estimate the VAR, equation by equation, where, a priori, the lags have decreasing importance (known as Litterman Prior). In this paper, a VAR model is analyzed throu...
متن کاملBalanced Bootstrap Joint Confidence Bands for Structural Impulse Response Functions
Constructing joint confidence bands for structural impulse response functions based on a VAR model is a difficult task because of the non-linear nature of such functions. We propose new joint confidence bands that cover the entire true structural impulse response function up to a chosen maximum horizon with a prespecified probability (1−α), at least asymptotically. Such bands are based on a cer...
متن کاملStructural Analysis of Portfolio Risk Using Beta Impulse Response Functions
We estimate the data generating process of daily excess returns of 20 major Ger-man stocks in a CAPM framework with time varying betas. Our sample spans a 23 year period from 1974 to 1996. An asymmetric dependence of volatility on lagged innovations is taken into account. We introduce beta impulse response functions to shed light on the structural implications of systematic risk associated with...
متن کاملNonlinear impulse response functions
The standard linear technique of impulse response function analysis is extended to the nonlinear case by de"ning a generalized impulse response function. Measures of persistence and asymmetry in response are constructed for a wide class of time series. ( 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved. JEL classixcation: C22; C51; C52; E32
متن کاملBayesian inference for psychometric functions.
In psychophysical studies, the psychometric function is used to model the relation between physical stimulus intensity and the observer's ability to detect or discriminate between stimuli of different intensities. In this study, we propose the use of Bayesian inference to extract the information contained in experimental data to estimate the parameters of psychometric functions. Because Bayesia...
