Analyzing the Swiss Business Cycle
Perruchoud, Alexander - 2008
This paper sets up a Gibbs sampler for a three state Markov switching model with non-constant transition probabilities. The step from two to three states is accomplished by the use of a multinomial probit model for the latent variable process. The algorithm is then applied to Swiss GDP data in...

Binomial Autoregressive Moving Average Models with an Application to U.S. Recessions
Startz, Richard - 2006
Binary Autoregressive Moving Average (BARMA) models provide a modeling technology for binary time series analogous to the classic Gaussian ARMA models used for continuous data. BARMA models mitigate the curse of dimensionality found in long lag Markov models and allow for non-Markovian...

A Discrete Time Series Model for High Frequency Financial Data
Mitchell, Heather Eunice - 2012
In this paper a flexible model for correlation in high frequency data is proposed, which maintains the data's discrete nature and captures features such as asymmetry and excess zeros. The model uses an a theoretical approach based on that of an ARIMA model. This model works with price changes...
