Forecasting State Tax Revenue: A Bayesian Vector Autoregression Approach By
This paper compares alternative time-series models to forecast state tax revenues. Forecast accuracy is compared to a benchmark random walk forecast. Quarterly data for California is used to forecast total tax revenue along with its three largest components, sales, income, and corporate tax revenue. For oneand four-quarter-ahead forecasts from 2004 to 2009, Bayesian vector autoregressions gener...
متن کاملFunctional 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...
متن کاملForecasting road fatalities by the use of kinked experience curve
According to the World Health Organization, more than one million road traffic deaths occur every year throughout the world. In order to cope with this challenge, many countries have established quantified road safety targets backed up with comprehensive safety strategies. Road safety targets need to be based on reliable forecasting methods. Following the pioneering work by Elvik (2010), this p...
متن کاملForecasting Recessions Using the Yield Curve
We compare forecasts of recessions using four different specifications of the probit model: a time invariant conditionally independent version; a business cycle specific conditionally independent model; a time invariant probit with autocorrelated errors; and a business cycle specific probit with autocorrelated errors. The more sophisticated versions of the model take into account some of the po...
متن کاملEstimating brain functional connectivity with sparse multivariate autoregression.
There is much current interest in identifying the anatomical and functional circuits that are the basis of the brain's computations, with hope that functional neuroimaging techniques will allow the in vivo study of these neural processes through the statistical analysis of the time-series they produce. Ideally, the use of techniques such as multivariate autoregressive (MAR) modelling should all...
