Gaussian Processes and Non-parametric Volatility Forecasting
We provide a formulation of stochastic volatility based on Gaussian processes, a flexible framework for Bayesian nonlinear regression. The advantage of using Gaussian processes in this context is to place volatility forecastingwithin a regression framework; this allows a large number of explanatory variables to be used for forecasting, a task difficult with standard volatility-forecasting formu...
متن کاملForecasting Economic Processes
When the assumption of constancy fails the in-sample fit of a model may be a poor guide to exante forecast performance. We exposit a number of models, methods and procedures that both illustrate the impact of structural breaks, or non-constancy, on forecast accuracy, and offer an improved forecast performance. We argue that a theory of forecasting that allows for strutural breaks is feasible, a...
متن کاملRisk bounds for the non-parametric estimation of Lévy processes
Estimation methods for the Lévy density of a Lévy process are developed under mild qualitative assumptions. A classical model selection approach made up of two steps is studied. The first step consists in the selection of a good estimator, from an approximating (finite-dimensional) linear model S for the true Lévy density. The second is a data-driven selection of a linear model S, among a given...
متن کاملForecasting Bank Failure: A Non-Parametric Frontier Estimation Approach†
The dramatic rise in bank failures over the last decade has led to a search for leading indicators so that costly bailouts might be avoided. While the quality of a bank’s management is generally acknowledged to be a key contributor to institutional collapse, it is usually excluded from early-warning models for lack of a metric. This paper describes a new approach for quantifying a bank’s manage...
متن کاملPoisson-Lindley INAR(1) Processes: Some Estimation and Forecasting Methods
This paper focuses on different methods of estimation and forecasting in first-order integer-valued autoregressive processes with Poisson-Lindley (PLINAR(1)) marginal distribution. For this purpose, the parameters of the model are estimated using Whittle, maximum empirical likelihood and sieve bootstrap methods. Moreover, Bayesian and sieve bootstrap forecasting methods are proposed and predict...
