We investigate the use of a P-spline generalized additive hedonic model (GAM) for real estate prices in large U.S. cities, contrasting their predictive efficiency against commonly used linear and polynomial-based generalized linear models (GLM). Using intrinsic and extrinsic factors available...

We propose a doubly subordinated Lévy process, the normal double inverse Gaussian (NDIG), to model the time series properties of the cryptocurrency bitcoin. By using two subordinated processes, NDIG captures both the skew and fat-tailed properties of, as well as the intrinsic time driving,...
