Korean Abstract : 이 논문에서는 한국의 주별 익일물 콜금리를 사용해 국면전환 확산과정모형을 추정했다. 일반적인 비선형 추세 함수와 분산 탄력성이 상수인 변동성 함수를 갖는 확산과정모형에서 모수들이 경제상황에 따라...

In this paper, we propose a Markov Chain Quasi-Monte Carlo (MCQMC) approach for Bayesian estimation of a discrete-time version of the stochastic volatility (SV) model. The Bayesian approach represents a feasible way to estimate SV models. Under the conventional Bayesian estimation method for SV...

Recently various exchange rate models capturing the dynamics during the transition from an exchange rate arrangement of floating rates into a currency union have been derived. Technically, these stochastic equilibrium models are diffusion processes which have to be estimated by discretely...

To gain insights in the current status of the economy, macroeconomic time series are often decomposed into trend, cycle and irregular components. This can be done by nonparametric band-pass filtering methods in the frequency domain or by model-based decompositions based on autoregressive moving...

This paper extends the stochastic conditional duration model first proposed by Bauwens and Veredas (2004) by imposing mixtures of bivariate normal distributions on the innovations of the observation and latent equations of the duration process. This extension allows the model not only to capture...

Linear filtering techniques are used to develop a quasi maximum likelihood estimator for asymmetric stochastic volatility models. The estimator is straightforward to implement and performs well in Monte Carlo experiments

Forecasting-volatility models typically rely on either daily or high frequency (HF) data and the choice between these two categories is not obvious. In particular, the latter allows to treat volatility as observable but they suffer of many limitations. HF data feature microstructure problem,...
