Estimation under Multicollinearity: Application of Restricted Liu and Maximum Entropy Estimators to the Portland Cement Dataset

Mishra, SK - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2004

A high degree of multicollinearity among the explanatory variables severely impairs estimation of regression … multicollinearity. In this paper we aim at comparing the Restricted Liu estimates of regression coefficients with those obtained by … exhibits a very high degree of multicollinearity and the other with no intercept term (extended homogenous) that characterizes …

On generating correlated random variables with a given valid or invalid Correlation matrix

Mishra, SK - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2004

In simulation we often have to generate correlated random variables by giving a reference intercorrelation matrix, R or Q. The matrix R is positive definite and a valid correlation matrix. The matrix Q may appear to be a correlation matrix but it may be invalid (negative definite). With R(m,m)...

Indirect estimation of GARCH models with alpha-stable innovations

Parrini, Alessandro - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2012

Several studies have highlighted the fact that heavy-tailedness of asset returns can be the consequence of conditional heteroskedasticity. GARCH models have thus become very popular, given their ability to account for volatility clustering and, implicitly, heavy tails. However, these models...

Forecasting an ARIMA (0,2,1) using the random walk model with drift

Halkos, George; Kevork, Ilias - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2006

In this paper we show that the random walk model with drift behaves like an ARIMA (0,2,1) when its parameter θ is greater but close to –1. Using the random walk for predicting future values of an ARIMA (0,2,1) process, we find out that when θ is not so close to –1, the performance of the...

Estimation methods in panel data models with observed and unobserved components: a Monte Carlo study

Castagnetti, Carolina; Rossi, Eduardo - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2008

Recently some new techniques have been proposed for the estimation of the slope coefficients in presence of unobserved components. Though, the presence of common observed and unobserved factors is neither considered or the estimation of their impacts is not taken into account. In this work a...
