Gaussian Process Regression for Multivariate Spectroscopic Calibration
Traditionally multivariate calibration models have been developed using regression based techniques including principal component regression and partial least squares and their non-linear counterparts. This paper proposes the application of Gaussian process regression as an alternative method for the development of a calibration model. By formulating the regression problem in a probabilistic fr...
متن کاملEvaluating multivariate volatility forecasts
The performance of techniques for evaluating multivariate volatility forecasts are not yet as well understood as their univariate counterparts. This paper aims to evaluate the efficacy of a range of traditional statistical-based methods for multivariate forecast evaluation together with methods based on underlying considerations of economic theory. It is found that statistical-based methods, or...
متن کاملDynamic Density Forecasts for Multivariate Asset Returns
We propose a simple and flexible framework for forecasting the joint density of asset returns. The multinormal distribution is augmented with a polynomial in (time-varying) non-central co-moments of assets. We estimate the coefficients of the polynomial via the Method of Moments for a carefully selected set of co-moments. In an extensive empirical study, we compare the proposed model with a ran...
متن کاملProbabilistic forecasts, calibration and sharpness
Probabilistic forecasts of a continuous variable take the form of predictive densities or predictive cumulative distribution functions. We propose a diagnostic approach to the evaluation of predictive performance that is based on the paradigm of maximizing the sharpness of the predictive distributions subject to calibration. Calibration refers to the statistical consistency between the distribu...
متن کاملMultivariate STAR Unemployment Rate Forecasts
In this paper we use smooth transition vector error-correction models (STVECMs) in a simulated out-of-sample forecasting experiment for the unemployment rates of the four non-Euro G-7 countries, the U.S., U.K., Canada, and Japan. In the forecasting analysis, pooled forecasts constructed by taking the median value across the point forecasts generated by the linear VECM and the STVECMs generally ...
