Consistent recalibration of yield curve models

Consistent Yield Curve Prediction

We present an arbitrage-free, non-parametric yield curve prediction model which takes the full discretized yield curve data as input state variable. The absence of arbitrage is a particular important model feature for prediction models in case of highly correlated data as, e.g., for interest rates. Furthermore, the model structure allows to separate constructing the daily yield curve from estim...

Consistent Variance Curve Models

We introduce equity forward variance term-structure models and derive the respective HJM-type arbitrage conditions. We then discuss finitedimensional Markovian representations of the infinite-dimensional fixed time-to-maturity forward variance swap curve and analyse examples of such variance curve functionals. The results are then applied to show that the speed of mean-reversion in standard sto...

Consistent Re-Calibration in Yield Curve Modeling: An Example

Functional Dynamic Factor Models with Application to Yield Curve Forecasting

Accurate forecasting of zero coupon bond yields for a continuum of maturities is paramount to bond portfolio management and derivative security pricing. Yet a universal model for yield curve forecasting has been elusive, and prior attempts often resulted in a trade-off between goodness of fit and consistency with economic theory. To address this, herein we propose a novel formulation which conn...

effect of seed priming and irrigation regimes on yield,yield components and quality of safflowers cultivars

این مطالعه در سال 1386-87 در آزمایشگاه و مزرعه پژوهشی دانشگاه صنعتی اصفهان به منظور تعیین مناسب ترین تیمار بذری و ارزیابی اثر پرایمینگ بر روی سه رقم گلرنگ تحت سه رژیم آبیاری انجام گرفت. برخی از مطالعات اثرات سودمند پرایمینگ بذر را بر روی گیاهان مختلف بررسی کرده اند اما در حال حاضر اطلاعات کمی در مورد خصوصیات مربوط به جوانه زنی، مراحل نموی، عملکرد و خصوصیات کمی و کیفی بذور تیمار شده ژنوتیپ های م...
