Estimation of non-Gaussian Affine Term Structure Models
We develop a new approach to estimate Gaussian and non-Gaussian affine term structure models. We construct an exact concentrated log-likelihood function that reduces the dimension of the parameter space and eliminates parameters that often cause problems for conventional estimation procedures. As a separate contribution, we derive the analytical gradients for the log-likelihood. Our approach ou...
متن کاملNon-Linear Kalman Filtering Techniques for Term-Structure Models
The state space form is a useful framework for estimating Markovian term-structure models with unobserved state variables. In this paper, we consider an econometric method which accommodates non-linearity in the measurement equation, for example when estimating exponential-a ne models using prices of coupon bonds. The ltering algorithm is known as the iterative, extended Kalman lter (IEKF), and...
متن کاملGoodness-of-fit Tests for high-dimensional Gaussian linear models
Let (Y, (Xi)1≤i≤p) be a real zero mean Gaussian vector and V be a subset of {1, . . . , p}. Suppose we are given n i.i.d. replications of this vector. We propose a new test for testing that Y is independent of (Xi)i∈{1,...p}\V conditionally to (Xi)i∈V against the general alternative that it is not. This procedure does not depend on any prior information on the covariance of X or the variance of...
متن کاملLinear-Rational Term-Structure Models
We introduce the class of linear-rational term structure models, where the state price density is modeled such that bond prices become linear-rational functions of the current state. This class is highly tractable with several distinct advantages: i) ensures nonnegative interest rates, ii) easily accommodates unspanned factors affecting volatility and risk premiums, and iii) admits analytical s...
متن کاملNon-Gaussian conditional linear AR(1) models
We give a general formulation of a non-Gaussian conditional linear AR(1) model subsuming most of the non-Gaussian AR(1) models that have appeared in the literature. We derive some general results giving properties for the stationary process mean, variance and correlation structure, and conditions for stationarity. These results highlight similarities and differences with the Gaussian AR(1) mode...
