In the recent years, the use of GARCH type (especially, ARMA-GARCH) models and computational-intelligence-based techniques—Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Relevance Vector Machine (RVM) have been successfully used for financial forecasting. This paper deals with the application of ARMA-GARCH, recurrent SVM (RSVM) and recurrent RVM (RRVM) in volatility forecasting. Based on RSVM and RRVM, two G...

This study investigates the extent of the contribution of the original GARCH model to our understanding of the stochastic process underlying exchange rate price changes, and examines if the movement of current research to GARCH type models exclusively is warranted. GARCH(1,1) parameters are calculated on a yearly basis and used to standardize the exchange rate price change data. Frequency distr...

With the increase of wind power as a renewable energy source in many countries, wind speed forecasting has become more and more important to the planning of wind speed plants, the scheduling of dispatchable generation and tariffs in the day-ahead electricity market, and the operation of power systems. However, the uncertainty of wind speed makes troubles in them. For this reason, a wind speed f...

The log returns of financial time series are usually modeled by means of the stationary GARCH(1,1) stochastic process or its generalizations which can not properly describe the nonstationary deterministic components of the original series. We analyze the influence of deterministic trends on the GARCH(1,1) parameters using Monte Carlo simulations. The statistical ensembles contain numerically ge...

This paper considers the pricing of options when there are jumps in the pricing kernel and correlated jumps in asset returns and volatilities. Our model nests Duan’s GARCH option models where conditional returns are constrained to being normal, as well as extends Merton’s jump-diffusion model by allowing return volatility to exhibit GARCH-like behavior. Empirical analysis on the S&P 500 index r...

In this paper, we assess the impacts of COVID-19 counts (infected cases, deaths and recovered) related announcements on Islamic conventional stocks interplays in Chinese market. We test whether are perceived as assets providing diversification benefits time pandemic. Doing so, implement a multivariate GJR-GARCH model under dynamic conditional correlation (DCC) well multiple partial wavelet cohe...

The study has two aims. The first aim is to propose a family of nonlinear GARCH models that incorporate fractional integration and asymmetric power properties to MS-GARCH processes. The second purpose of the study is to augment the MS-GARCH type models with artificial neural networks to benefit from the universal approximation properties to achieve improved forecasting accuracy. Therefore, the ...

This paper develops a closed-form option pricing formula for a spot asset whose variance follows a GARCH process. The model allows for correlation between returns of the spot asset and variance and also admits multiple lags in the dynamics of the GARCH process. The single-factor (one-lag) version of this model contains Heston’s (1993) stochastic volatility model as a diffusion limit and therefo...
