Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We propose the indirect inference estimator as a consistent method to estimate the parameters of a structural model when the observed series are contaminated by measurement error by considering the noise as a structural feature. We show that the indirect inference estimates are asymptotically biased if the error is neglected. Instead, if the condition for identification is satisfied, the measurement error parameters can be estimated jointly with the structural ones leading to a consistent and asymptotically Gaussian estimator. The issues of identification and misspecification of ME are discussed in detail. Based on the encompassing principle, we show that II can still be consistent for the parameters of interest when the conditional distribution of ME is misspecified, as long as the structural model for the observed series encompasses the auxiliary. We illustrate the reliability of this procedure in the estimation of stochastic volatility models based on realized volatility measures contaminated by microstructure noise. The empirical application stresses the importance of a realistic specification of the microstructure noise distribution to match the features of the observed log-returns at high frequencies.

Download or read book Simulation-based Econometric Methods written by Christian Gouriéroux and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 1997-01-09 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces a new generation of statistical econometrics. After linear models leading to analytical expressions for estimators, and non-linear models using numerical optimization algorithms, the availability of high- speed computing has enabled econometricians to consider econometric models without simple analytical expressions. The previous difficulties presented by the presence of integrals of large dimensions in the probability density functions or in the moments can be circumvented by a simulation-based approach. After a brief survey of classical parametric and semi-parametric non-linear estimation methods and a description of problems in which criterion functions contain integrals, the authors present a general form of the model where it is possible to simulate the observations. They then move to calibration problems and the simulated analogue of the method of moments, before considering simulated versions of maximum likelihood, pseudo-maximum likelihood, or non-linear least squares. The general principle of indirect inference is presented and is then applied to limited dependent variable models and to financial series.

There are two mainstream econometric models which are very popular in recent decades. One is quantile autoregressive (QAR) model which allows varying-coefficients in linear time series and greatly promotes the ranges of regression research. The first topic of this thesis is to focus on the modeling of QAR model. We propose two important measures, quantile correlation (QCOR) and quantile partial correlation (QPCOR). We then apply them to QAR models, and introduce two valuable quantities, the quantile autocorrelation function (QACF) and the quantile partial autocorrelation function (QPACF). This allows us to extend the Box-Jenkins three-stage procedure (model identification, model parameter estimation, and model diagnostic checking) from classical autoregressive models to quantile autoregressive models. Specifically, the QPACF of an observed time series can be employed to identify the autoregressive order, while the QACF of residuals obtained from the model can be used to assess the model adequacy. We not only demonstrate the asymptotic properties of QCOR, QPCOR, QACF and PQACF, but also show the large sample results of the QAR estimates and the quantile version of the Ljung- Box test. Moreover, we obtain the bootstrap approximations to the distributions of parameter estimators and proposed measures. Simulation studies indicate that the proposed methods perform well in finite samples, and an empirical example is presented to illustrate the usefulness of QAR model. The other important econometric model is autoregressive conditional duration (ACD) model which is developed with the purpose of depicting ultra high frequency (UHF) financial time series data. The second topic of this thesis is designed to incorporate ACD model with one of the extreme value distributions, i.e. Frechet distribution. We apply the maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) to Frechet ACD models and derive its generalized residuals for model adequacy checking. It is noteworthy that simulations show a relative greater sensitiveness in the linear parameters to sampling errors. This phenomenon successfully reflects the skewness of the Frechet distribution and suggests a method to practitioners in proceeding model accuracy. Furthermore, we present the empirical sizes and powers for Box-Pierce, Ljung-Box and modified Box-Pierce statistics as comparisons of the proposed portmanteau statistic. In addition to the Frechet ACD, we also systematically analyze theWeibull ACD, where the Weibull distribution is the other nonnegative extreme value distribution. The last topic of the thesis explains the estimation and diagnostic checking the Weibull ACD model. By investigating the MLE in this model, there exhibits a slight sensitiveness in linear parameters. However, there is an obvious phenomenon on the trade-off between the skewness of Weibull distribution and the sampling error when the simulations are conducted. Moreover, the asymptotic properties are also studied for the generalized residuals and a goodness-of-fit test is employed to obtain a portmanteau statistic. Through the simulation results in size and power, it shows that Weibull ACD is superior to Frechet ACD in specifying the wrong model. This is meaningful in practice.

Book Synopsis Bayesian Analysis of Time Series by : Lyle D. Broemeling
Download or read book Bayesian Analysis of Time Series written by Lyle D. Broemeling and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-04-16 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In many branches of science relevant observations are taken sequentially over time. Bayesian Analysis of Time Series discusses how to use models that explain the probabilistic characteristics of these time series and then utilizes the Bayesian approach to make inferences about their parameters. This is done by taking the prior information and via Bayes theorem implementing Bayesian inferences of estimation, testing hypotheses, and prediction. The methods are demonstrated using both R and WinBUGS. The R package is primarily used to generate observations from a given time series model, while the WinBUGS packages allows one to perform a posterior analysis that provides a way to determine the characteristic of the posterior distribution of the unknown parameters. Features Presents a comprehensive introduction to the Bayesian analysis of time series. Gives many examples over a wide variety of fields including biology, agriculture, business, economics, sociology, and astronomy. Contains numerous exercises at the end of each chapter many of which use R and WinBUGS. Can be used in graduate courses in statistics and biostatistics, but is also appropriate for researchers, practitioners and consulting statisticians. About the author Lyle D. Broemeling, Ph.D., is Director of Broemeling and Associates Inc., and is a consulting biostatistician. He has been involved with academic health science centers for about 20 years and has taught and been a consultant at the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center and the University of Texas School of Public Health. His main interest is in developing Bayesian methods for use in medical and biological problems and in authoring textbooks in statistics. His previous books for Chapman & Hall/CRC include Bayesian Biostatistics and Diagnostic Medicine, and Bayesian Methods for Agreement.
Book Synopsis Statistical Inference as Severe Testing by : Deborah G. Mayo
Download or read book Statistical Inference as Severe Testing written by Deborah G. Mayo and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-09-20 with total page 503 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mounting failures of replication in social and biological sciences give a new urgency to critically appraising proposed reforms. This book pulls back the cover on disagreements between experts charged with restoring integrity to science. It denies two pervasive views of the role of probability in inference: to assign degrees of belief, and to control error rates in a long run. If statistical consumers are unaware of assumptions behind rival evidence reforms, they can't scrutinize the consequences that affect them (in personalized medicine, psychology, etc.). The book sets sail with a simple tool: if little has been done to rule out flaws in inferring a claim, then it has not passed a severe test. Many methods advocated by data experts do not stand up to severe scrutiny and are in tension with successful strategies for blocking or accounting for cherry picking and selective reporting. Through a series of excursions and exhibits, the philosophy and history of inductive inference come alive. Philosophical tools are put to work to solve problems about science and pseudoscience, induction and falsification.
Book Synopsis Inference for Diffusion Processes by : Christiane Fuchs
Download or read book Inference for Diffusion Processes written by Christiane Fuchs and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-01-18 with total page 439 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diffusion processes are a promising instrument for realistically modelling the time-continuous evolution of phenomena not only in the natural sciences but also in finance and economics. Their mathematical theory, however, is challenging, and hence diffusion modelling is often carried out incorrectly, and the according statistical inference is considered almost exclusively by theoreticians. This book explains both topics in an illustrative way which also addresses practitioners. It provides a complete overview of the current state of research and presents important, novel insights. The theory is demonstrated using real data applications.

Book Synopsis Elements of Causal Inference by : Jonas Peters
Download or read book Elements of Causal Inference written by Jonas Peters and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2017-11-29 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A concise and self-contained introduction to causal inference, increasingly important in data science and machine learning. The mathematization of causality is a relatively recent development, and has become increasingly important in data science and machine learning. This book offers a self-contained and concise introduction to causal models and how to learn them from data. After explaining the need for causal models and discussing some of the principles underlying causal inference, the book teaches readers how to use causal models: how to compute intervention distributions, how to infer causal models from observational and interventional data, and how causal ideas could be exploited for classical machine learning problems. All of these topics are discussed first in terms of two variables and then in the more general multivariate case. The bivariate case turns out to be a particularly hard problem for causal learning because there are no conditional independences as used by classical methods for solving multivariate cases. The authors consider analyzing statistical asymmetries between cause and effect to be highly instructive, and they report on their decade of intensive research into this problem. The book is accessible to readers with a background in machine learning or statistics, and can be used in graduate courses or as a reference for researchers. The text includes code snippets that can be copied and pasted, exercises, and an appendix with a summary of the most important technical concepts.
