modeling and forecasting iranian inflation with time varying bvar models

چکیده

this paper investigates the forecasting performance of different time-varying bvar models for iranian inflation. forecast accuracy of a bvar model with litterman’s prior compared with a time-varying bvar model (a version introduced by doan et al., 1984); and a modified time-varying bvar model, where the autoregressive coefficients are held constant and only the deterministic components are allowed to vary over time. application using quarterly data of the iranian economy from 1981:q2 to 2006:q1 shows that the performance of different specifications of time-varying bvar models for forecasting inflation depends on the number of lags, hyper parameter that controls time variation, and forecast horizons. our results, however, show that the modified time-varying bvar model performs much better than other models regardless of the factors above.

Modeling and Forecasting Iranian Inflation with Time Varying BVAR Models

This paper investigates the forecasting performance of different time-varying BVAR models for Iranian inflation. Forecast accuracy of a BVAR model with Litterman’s prior compared with a time-varying BVAR model (a version introduced by Doan et al., 1984); and a modified time-varying BVAR model, where the autoregressive coefficients are held constant and only the deterministic components are allo...

Forecasting with time-varying vector autoregressive models

The purpose of this paper is to propose a time-varying vector autoregressive model (TV-VAR) for forecasting multivariate time series. The model is casted into a state-space form that allows flexible description and analysis. The volatility covariance matrix of the time series is modelled via inverted Wishart and singular multivariate beta distributions allowing a fully conjugate Bayesian infere...

Comparison of Neural Network Models, Vector Auto Regression (VAR), Bayesian Vector-Autoregressive (BVAR), Generalized Auto Regressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity (GARCH) Process and Time Series in Forecasting Inflation in ‎Iran‎

‎This paper has two aims. The first is forecasting inflation in Iran using Macroeconomic variables data in Iran (Inflation rate, liquidity, GDP, prices of imported goods and exchange rates) , and the second is comparing the performance of forecasting vector auto regression (VAR), Bayesian Vector-Autoregressive (BVAR), GARCH, time series and neural network models by which Iran's inflation is for...

Forecasting Temperature Indices with Time-varying Long-memory Models

The hedging of weather risks has become extremely relevant in recent years, promoting the diffusion of weather derivative contracts. The pricing of such contracts require the development of appropriate models for the prediction of the underlying weather variables. Within this framework, we present a modification of the double long memory ARFIMA-FIGARCH model introducing time-varying memory coef...
