GARCH modelling of covariance in dynamical estimation of inverse solutions
نویسندگان
چکیده
The problem of estimating unobserved states of spatially extended dynamical systems poses an inverse problem, which can be solved approximately by a recently developed variant of Kalman filtering; in order to provide the model of the dynamics with more flexibility with respect to space and time, we suggest to combine the concept of GARCH modelling of covariance, well known in econometrics, with Kalman filtering. We formulate this algorithm for spatiotemporal systems governed by stochastic diffusion equations and demonstrate its feasibility by presenting a numerical simulation designed to imitate the situation of the generation of electroencephalographic recordings by the human cortex. 2004 Elsevier B.V.

An estimator of the inverse covariance matrix and its application to ML parameter estimation in dynamical systems
An exact formula of the inverse covariance matrix of an autoregressive stochastic process is obtained using the Gohberg}Semencul explicit inverse of the Toeplitz matrix. This formula is used to build an estimator of the inverse covariance matrix of a stochastic process based on a single realization. In this paper, we show that this estimator can be conveniently applied to maximum likelihood par...
متن کاملThe effect of parameter estimation on Phase II control chart performance in monitoring financial GARCH processes with contaminated data
The application of control charts for monitoring financial processes has received a greater focus after recent global crisis. The Generelized AutoRegressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity (GARCH) time series model is widely applied for modelling financial processes. Therefore, traditional Shewhart control chart is developed to monitor GARCH processes. There are some difficulties in financial su...
متن کاملInputs and Outputs Estimation in Inverse DEA
The present study addresses the following question: if among a group of decision making units, the decision maker is required to increase inputs and outputs to a particular unit in which the DMU, with respect to other DMUs, maintains or improves its current efficiencylevel, how much should the inputs and outputs of the DMU increase? This question is considered as a problem of inverse data envel...
متن کاملStandard Errors and Confidence Intervals in Inverse Problems: Sensitivity and Associated Pitfalls
We review the asymptotic theory for standard errors in classical ordinary least squares (OLS) inverse or parameter estimation problems involving general nonlinear dynamical systems where sensitivity matrices can be used to compute the asymptotic covariance matrices. We discuss possible pitfalls in computing standard errors in regions of low parameter sensitivity and/or near a steady state solut...
متن کاملModelling of Correlated Ordinal Responses, by Using Multivariate Skew Probit with Different Types of Variance Covariance Structures
In this paper, a multivariate fundamental skew probit (MFSP) model is used to model correlated ordinal responses which are constructed from the multivariate fundamental skew normal (MFSN) distribution originate to the greater flexibility of MFSN. To achieve an appropriate VC structure for reaching reliable statistical inferences, many types of variance covariance (VC) structures are considered ...
