Modified Burg Algorithms for Multivariate Subset Autoregression
نویسندگان
چکیده
Lattice algorithms for estimating the parameters of a multivariate autoregression are generalized to deal with subset models in which some of the coefficient matrices are constrained to be zero. We first establish a recursive prediction-error version of the empirical Yule-Walker equations. The estimated coefficient matrices obtained from these recursions are the coefficients of the best linear one-step predictors of the process under the assumption that the autocovariance function is the same as the sample autocovariance function. By modifying the recursions to allow for certain inherent shortcomings, we then derive new estimators which generalize the Vieira-Morf, Nutall-Strand and Burg estimators to the multivariate subset case. We show that the new estimators minimize weighted sums of squares of the forward and backward prediction errors in recursive schemes which closely resemble the original scheme of Burg. The performances of the estimators are compared in a simulation study.

Application of Genetic Algorithms for Pixel Selection in MIA-QSAR Studies on Anti-HIV HEPT Analogues for New Design Derivatives
Quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) analysis has been carried out with a series of 107 anti-HIV HEPT compounds with antiviral activity, which was performed by chemometrics methods. Bi-dimensional images were used to calculate some pixels and multivariate image analysis was applied to QSAR modelling of the anti-HIV potential of HEPT analogues by means of multivariate calibration,...

متن کاملA Learning Causal Relations in Multivariate Time Series Data
Many applications naturally involve time series data and the vector autoregression (VAR), and the structural VAR (SVAR) are dominant tools to investigate relations between variables in time series. In the first part of this work, we show that the SVAR method is incapable of identifying contemporaneous causal relations for Gaussian process. In addition, least squares estimators become unreliable...
متن کاملAn Impulse-Response Function for a Vector Autoregression with Multivariate GARCH-in-Mean
This paper derives an analytical expression for an impulse-response function for a vector autoregression with multivariate GARCH errors, where the vector of conditional means is a function of the conditional variances. We also provide the appropriate interpretation of an impulse-response function for such models and suggest interesting empirical issues that can be addressed within this framework.
متن کاملRegularized multivariate stochastic regression
In many high dimensional problems, the dependence structure among the variables can be quite complex. An appropriate use of the regularization techniques coupled with other classical statistical methods can often improve estimation and prediction accuracy and facilitate model interpretation, by seeking a parsimonious model representation that involves only the subset of revelent variables. We p...
