Book excerpt: A Maximum Likelihood (ML) approach based upon an Efficient Importance Sampling (EIS) procedure is used to estimate several extensions of the standard Stochastic Volatility (SV) model for daily financial return series. EIS provides a highly generic procedure for a very accurate Monte Carlo evaluation of the marginal likelihood which depends upon high-dimensional interdependent integrals. Extensions of the standard SV model being analyzed only require minor modifications in the ML-EIS procedure. Furthermore, EIS can also be applied for filtering which provides the basis for several diagnostic tests. Our empirical analysis indicates that extensions such as a semi-nonparametric specification of the error term distribution in the return equation dominate the standard SV model. Finally, we also apply the ML-EIS approach to a multivariate factor model with stochastic volatility.

This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this paper we exploit properties of the likelihood function of the stochastic volatility model to show that it can be approximated accurately and efficiently using a response surface methodology. The approximation is across the plausible range of parameter values and all possible data and is found to be highly accurate. The methods extend easily to multivariate models and are applied to artificial data as well as ten exchange rates and all stocks of FTSE100 using daily data. Formal comparisons with multivariate GARCH models are undertaken using a special prior for the GARCH parameters. The comparisons are based on marginal likelihood and the Bayes factors.

Download or read book Analysis of High Dimensional Multivariate Stochastic Volatility Models written by Siddhartha Chib and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper is concerned with the fitting and comparison of high dimensional multivariate time series models with time varying correlations. The models considered here combine features of the classical factor model with those of the univariate stochastic volatility model. Specifically, a set of unobserved time-dependent factors, along with an associated loading matrix, are used to model the contemporaneous correlation while, conditioned on the factors, the noise in each factor and each series is assumed to follow independent three-parameter univariate stochastic volatility processes. A complete analysis of these models, and its special cases, is developed that encompasses estimation, filtering and model choice. The centerpieces of our estimation algorithm (which relies on MCMC methods) is (1) a reduced blocking scheme for sampling the free elements of the loading matrix and the factors and (2) a special method for sampling the parameters of the univariate SV process. The sampling of the loading matrix (containing typically many hundreds of parameters) is done via a highly tuned Metropolis-Hastings step. The resulting algorithm is completely scalable in terms of series and factors and very simulation-efficient. We also provide methods for estimating the log-likelihood function and the filtered values of the time-varying volatilities and correlations. We pay special attention to the problem of comparing one version of the model with another and for determining the number of factors. For this purpose we use MCMC methods to find the marginal likelihood and associated Bayes factors of each fitted model. In sum, these procedures lead to the first unified and practical likelihood based analysis of truly high dimensional models of stochastic volatility. We apply our methods in detail to two datasets. The first is the return vector on 20 exchange rates against the US Dollar. The second is the return vector on 40 common stocks quoted on the New York Stock Exchange.

This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this paper, our proposal is to combine univariate ARMA models to produce a variant of the VARMA model that is much more easily implementable and does not involve certain complications. The original model is reduced to a series of univariate problems and a copula - like term (a mixture-of-normals densities) is introduced to handle dependence. Since the univariate problems are easy to handle by MCMC or other techniques, computations can be parallelized easily, and only univariate distribution functions are needed, which are quite often available in closed form. The results from parallel MCMC or other posterior simulators can then be taken together and use simple sampling - resampling to obtain a draw from the exact posterior which includes the copula - like term. We avoid optimization of the parameters entering the copula mixture form as its parameters are optimized only once before MCMC begins. We apply the new techniques in three types of challenging problems. Large timevarying parameter vector autoregressions (TVP-VAR) with nearly 100 macroeconomic variables, multivariate ARMA models with 25 macroeconomic variables and multivariate stochastic volatility models with 100 stock returns. Finally, we perform impulse response analysis in the data of Giannone, Lenza, and Primiceri (2015) and compare, as they proposed with results from a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium model.

This book was released on 2010-08 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The phenomenon of changing variance and covariance is often encountered in financial time series. As a result, during the last years researchers focused on the time-varying volatility models. These models are able to describe the main characteristics of the financial data such as the volatility clustering. In addition, the development of the Markov Chain Monte Carlo Techniques (MCMC) provides a powerful tool for the estimation of the parameters of the time-varying volatility models, in the context of Bayesian analysis. In this thesis, we adopt the Bayesian inference and we propose easy-to-apply MCMC algorithms for a variety of time-varying volatility models. We use a recent development in the context of the MCMC techniques, the Auxiliary variable sampler. This technique enables us to construct MCMC algorithms, which only consist of Gibbs steps. We propose new MCMC algorithms for many univariate and multivariate models. Furthermore, we apply the proposed MCMC algorithms to real data and compare the above models based on their predictive distribution

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stochastic volatility (SV) models provide a natural framework for a representation of time series for financial asset returns. As a result, they have become increasingly popular in the finance literature, although they have also been applied in other fields such as signal processing, telecommunications, engineering, biology, and other areas. In working with the SV models, an important issue arises as how to estimate their parameters efficiently and to assess how well they fit real data. In the literature, commonly used estimation methods for the SV models include general methods of moments, simulated maximum likelihood methods, quasi Maximum likelihood method, and Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods. Among these approaches, MCMC methods are most flexible in dealing with complicated structure of the models. However, due to the difficulty in the selection of the proposal distribution for Metropolis-Hastings methods, in general they are not easy to implement and in some cases we may also encounter convergence problems in the implementation stage. In the light of these concerns, we propose in this thesis new estimation methods for univariate and multivariate SV models.
Download or read book A Stochastic Volatility Model and Inference for the Term Structure of Interest written by and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis builds a stochastic volatility model for the term structure of interest rates, which is also known as the dynamics of the yield curve. The main purpose of the model is to propose a parsimonious and plausible approach to capture some characteristics that conform to some empirical evidences and conventions. Eventually, the development reaches a class of multivariate stochastic volatility models, which is flexible, extensible, providing the existence of an inexpensive inference approach. The thesis points out some inconsistency among conventions and practice. First, yield curves and its related curves are conventionally smooth. But in the literature that these curves are modeled as random functions, the co-movement of points on the curve are usually assumed to be governed by some covariance structures that do not generate smooth random curves. Second, it is commonly agreed that the constant volatility is not a sound assumption, but stochastic volatilities have not been commonly considered in related studies. Regarding the above problems, we propose a multiplicative factor stochastic volatility model, which has a relatively simple structure. Though it is apparently simple, the inference is not, because of the presence of stochastic volatilities. We first study the sequential-Monte-Carlo-based maximum likelihood approach, which extends the perspectives of Gaussian linear state-space modeling. We propose a systematic procedure that guides the inference based on this approach. In addition, we also propose a saddlepoint approximation approach, which integrates out states. Then the state propagates by an exact Gaussian approximation. The approximation works reasonably well for univariate models. Moreover, it works even better for the multivariate model that we propose. Because we can enjoy the asymptotic property of the saddlepoint approximation.
