Constrained estimation using penalization and MCMC

چکیده

We study inference for parameters defined by either classical extremum estimators or Laplace-type subject to general nonlinear constraints on the parameters. show that running MCMC penalized version of problem offers a computationally attractive alternative solving original constrained optimization problem. Bayesian credible intervals are asymptotically valid confidence in pointwise sense, providing exact asymptotic coverage functions allow nonadaptive and adaptive penalizations using ℓp p⩾1 penalty functions. These methods motivated include as special cases model selection shrinkage such LASSO its versions. A simulation validates theoretical results. also provide an empirical application estimating joint density U.S. real consumption asset returns Euler equation CRRA pricing model.

Vehicle Trajectory Estimation Using Spatio-Temporal MCMC

This paper presents an algorithm for modeling and tracking vehicles in video sequences within one integrated framework. Most of the solutions are based on sequential methods that make inference according to current information. In contrast, we propose a deferred logical inference method that makes a decision according to a sequence of observations, thus processing a spatio-temporal search on th...

Estimation of Hyperbolic Diffusion using MCMC Method

In this paper we propose a Bayesian method for estimating hyperbolic diffusion models. The approach is based on the Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method after discretization via the Milstein scheme. Our simulation study shows that the hyperbolic diffusion exhibits many of the stylized facts about asset returns documented in the financial econometrics literature, such as a slowly declining aut...

Prox-Penalization and Splitting Methods for Constrained Variational Problems

This paper is concerned with the study of a class of prox-penalization methods for solving variational inequalities of the form Ax + NC(x) 3 0 where H is a real Hilbert space, A : H ⇒ H is a maximal monotone operator and NC is the outward normal cone to a closed convex set C ⊂ H. Given Ψ : H → R ∪ {+∞} which acts as a penalization function with respect to the constraint x ∈ C, and a penalizatio...

MCMC algorithms for constrained variance matrices

In this paper we consider the problem of nding a generic algorithm for applying Markov chain Monte Carlo MCMC estimation procedures to statistical models that include variance matrices with additional parameter constraints We consider separately the case of additional constraints across variance matrices and review existing work on the case of additional parameter constraints within a variance ...
