We present a novel method in analyzing microstructure noise of high-frequency data as a measurement error problem within an endogenous Markov-switching regression model. In this model, the regression disturbance and the latent state variable controlling the regime are correlated. We show that...

A particle filter approach for general mixed-frequency state-space models is considered. It employs a backward smoother to filter high-frequency state variables from low-frequency observations. Moreover, it preserves the sequential nature of particle filters, allows for non-Gaussian shocks and...

We characterize the robustness of subsampling procedures by deriving a formula for the breakdown point of subsampling quantiles. This breakdown point can be very low for moderate subsampling block sizes, which implies the fragility of subsampling procedures, even if they are applied to robust...
