Common Large Innovations Across Nonlinear Time Series

چکیده
We propose a multivariate nonlinear econometric time series model, which can be used to examine if there is common nonlinearity across economic variables. The model is a multivariate censored latent effects autoregression. The key feature of this model is that nonlinearity appears as separate innovation-like variables. Common nonlinearity can then be easily defined as the presence of common innovations. We discuss representation, inference, estimation and diagnostics. We illustrate the model for US and Canadian unemployment and find that US innovation variables have an effect on Canadian unemployment, and not the other way around, and also that there is no common nonlinearity across the unemployment variables.

This paper investigates the problem of testing for the symmetry of linear time series driven by asymmetric innovations. In particular, we examine the performance of alternative symmetry tests when innovations are fat tailed. Among the tests considered, only the test based on the tail estimator of the spectral measure yields satisfactory results in the presence of fat-tailed innovations.

This paper provides a strict stationarity proof for general nonlinear regression models. In particular, it shows the existence of a strictly stationary solution to first order dynamic nonlinear models when the innovations are only assumed to satisfy a strict stationarity or strong mixing condition. The results of this paper can be applied to show the strict stationarity of threshold unit root m...
متن کاملOn Linear Processes with Dependent Innovations
We investigate asymptotic properties of partial sums and sample covariances for linear processes whose innovations are dependent. Central limit theorems and invariance principles are established under fairly mild conditions. Our results go beyond earlier ones by allowing a quite wide class of innovations which includes many important non-linear time series models. Applications to linear process...
متن کاملNonlinear Analysis of Truss Structures Using Dynamic Relaxation (RESEARCH NOTE)
This paper presents a new approach for large-deflection analysis of truss structures employing the Dynamic Relaxation method (DR). The typical formulation for DR has been established utilizing the finite difference technique which is categorized as an explicit method. The special characteristic of the explicit method is its simple algebraic relationships in comparison with complicated matrix op...
