This paper improves a standard Structural Panel Bayesian Vector Autoregression model in order to jointly deal with issues of endogeneity, because of omitted factors and unobserved heterogeneity, and volatility, because of policy regime shifts and structural changes. Bayesian methods are used to...

In this article, we propose an adaptive group lasso procedure to efficiently estimate structural breaks in cointegrating regressions. It is well known that the group lasso estimator is not simultaneously estimation consistent and model selection consistent in structural break settings. Hence, we...

We consider a new procedure for detecting structural breaks in mean for high- dimensional time series. We target breaks happening at unknown time points and locations. In particular, at a fixed time point our method is concerned with either the biggest break in one location or aggregating...

Change point models using hierarchical priors share in the information of each regime when estimating the parameter values of a regime. Because of this sharing, hierarchical priors have been very successful when estimating the parameter values of short-lived regimes and predicting the...
