In this paper data-driven algorithms for fitting SEMIFAR models (Beran, 1999) are proposed. The algorithms combine the data-driven estimation of the nonparametric trend and maximum likelihood estimation of the parameters. For selecting the bandwidth, the proposal of Beran and Feng (1999) based...

In this paper a modified double smoothing bandwidth selector, MDS, based on a new criterion, which combines the plug-in and the double smoothing ideas, is proposed. A self-complete iterative double smoothing rule (_IDS ) is introduced as a pilot method. The asymptotic properties of both_IDS...

The problem of selecting bandwidth for nonparametric regression is investigated. The methodology used here is a double-smoothing procedure with data-driven pilot bandwidths. After giving an extension of the asymptotic result of Hardle, Hall and Marron (1992) by transfering the ideas of Jones,...

This paper proposes a semiparametric approach by introducing a smooth scale function into the standard GARCH model so that conditional heteroskedasticity and scale change in a financial time series can be modelled simultaneously. An estimation procedure combining kernel estimation of the scale...
