this paper is to analyze these two indexes in order to capture ENSO volatility. The empirical results show that both the … ARMA(1,1)-GARCH(1,1) and ARMA(3,2)-GJR(1,1) models are suitable for modelling ENSO volatility. Moreover, 1998 is a turning … point for the volatility of SOI, and the ENSO volatility has became stronger since 1998 which indicates that the ENSO …

The papers in this special issue of Mathematics and Computers in Simulation cover the following topics: improving judgmental adjustment of model-based forecasts, whether forecast updates are progressive, on a constrained mixture vector autoregressive model, whether all estimators are born equal:...

In this paper we use a structural VAR model with block exogeneity to investigate if external shocks originating from the USA played a dominant role in influencing the macroeconomic fluctuations in East Asia during the period 1978-2007. The empirical results show a dynamic effect of external...

__Abstract__ Of the two most widely estimated univariate asymmetric conditional volatility models, the exponential … GARCH (or EGARCH) specification can capture asymmetry, which refers to the different effects on conditional volatility of … shocks and subsequent shocks to volatility. However, the statistical properties of the (quasi-) maximum likelihood estimator …

In this paper we propose a Bayesian analysis of seasonal unit roots in quarterly observed time series. Seasonal unit root processes are useful to describe economic series with changing seasonal fluctuations. A natural alternative model for similar purposes contains deterministic seasonal mean...

We consider tests for sudden changes in the unconditional volatility of conditionally heteroskedastic time series based … the correct null hypothesis of no volatility change is rejected much too frequently. Applying the tests to standardized … designed to test sequentially for the presence of multiple changes in volatility. An application to emerging markets stock …

This paper demonstrates that the class of conditionally linear and Gaussian state-space models offers a general and convenient framework for simultaneously handling nonlinearity, structural change and outliers in time series. Many popular nonlinear time series models, including threshold, smooth...
