semimartingales. Based on this new sampling scheme we propose a class of volatility estimators named renewal based volatility … based volatility estimators are consistent and jump-robust estimators of the integrated variance of a general semimartingale …

Estimation of the volatility of time series has taken off since the introduction of the GARCH and stochastic volatility … models. While variants of the GARCH model are applied in scores of articles, use of the stochastic volatility model is less … unobserved stochastic volatility, and the varying approaches that have been taken for such estimation. In order to simplify the …

Volatility is a central tenet of financial markets, impacting a wide range of investors’ daily activities, including … considerable time and effort on finding new ways to accurately measure and estimate volatility. Incorporating intraday data in your … data to volatility forecasts …

We investigate a model in which we connect slowly time varying unconditional long-run volatility with short …-run conditional volatility whose representation is given as a semi-strong GARCH (1,1) process with heavy tailed errors. We focus on … robust estimation of both long-run and short-run volatilities. Our estimation is semiparametric since the long-run volatility …

We propose a new methodology based on Fourier analysis to estimate the fourth power of the volatility function (spot … viewpoint. Extensions to higher powers of volatility and to the multivariate case are also discussed …

We propose a flexible GARCH-type model for the prediction of volatility in financial time series. The approach relies … computationally attractive and feasible for large dimensions. We demonstrate its strong predictive potential for financial volatility …
