Bayesian Estimation of the Heston Stochastic Volatility Model
نویسندگان
چکیده
The goal of this article is an exact Bayesian analysis of the Heston (1993) stochastic volatility model. We carefully study the affect different parameterizations of the latent volatility process and the parameters of the volatility process have on the convergence and the mixing behavior of the sampler. We apply the sampler to simulated data and to some DM/US$ exchange rate data.

In this paper, we study the problem of pricing multi-asset American-style options in the Heston-Hull-White model. It is widely recognized that our intended model compared to the original Heston model, due to its stochastic interest rate and stochastic volatility, is more compatible with the realistic of the market. We demonstrate the efficiency and accuracy of the our proposed method by verifyi...
متن کاملComputational intelligence sequential Monte Carlos for recursive Bayesian estimation
Recursive Bayesian estimation using sequential Monte Carlos methods is a powerful numerical technique to understand latent dynamics of non-linear non-Gaussian dynamical systems. Classical sequential Monte Carlos suffer from weight degeneracy which is where the number of distinct particles collapse. Traditionally this is addressed by resampling, which effectively replaces high weight particles w...

In this paper Bayesian methods are applied to a stochastic volatility model using both the prices of the asset and the prices of options written on the asset. Posterior densities for all model parameters, latent volatilities and the market price of volatility risk are produced via a hybrid Markov Chain Monte Carlo sampling algorithm. Candidate draws for the unobserved volatilities are obtained ...

متن کاملBayesian inference for Heston-STAR models
The Heston-STAR model is a new class of stochastic volatility models defined by generalizing the Heston model to allow the volatility of the volatility process as well as the correlation between asset log-returns and variance shocks to change across different regimes via smooth transition autoregressive (STAR) functions. The form of the STAR functions is very flexible, much more so than the fun...
