The Power of a Leading Indicator’s Fluctuation Trend for Forecasting Taiwan's Real Estate Business Cycle: an Application of a Hidden Markov Model
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper employ the discrete hidden Markov model (HMM) in order to capture information about the Markov switching model’s inner states that is not directly observable, and to pre-detect the real estate business cycle’s volatility trend. The empirical results show that this HMM can capture the asymmetry in the duration of states. Compared with the real estate leading indicator announced by the Taiwan Real Estate Research Center, this HMM yields the same results in terms of forecasting the trends of cycle fluctuations. The explanatory power of the HMM in 4-steps out-of-sample forecasting is supported both conceptually and methodologically. © 2017 AESS Publications. All Rights Reserved.

Sign language recognition has spawned more and more interest in human–computer interaction society. The major challenge that SLR recognition faces now is developing methods that will scale well with increasing vocabulary size with a limited set of training data for the signer independent application. The automatic SLR based on hidden Markov models (HMMs) is very sensitive to gesture's shape inf...
