In this paper data-driven algorithms for fitting SEMIFAR models (Beran, 1999) are proposed. The algorithms combine the data-driven estimation of the nonparametric trend and maximum likelihood estimation of the parameters. Convergence and asymptotic properties of the proposed algorithms are...

This paper is written as a supplement to our paper Iterative plug-in algorithms for SEMIFAR models-definition, convergence and asymptotic properties (Beran and Feng, 2001). The purpose of this supplement is to report the detailed simulation results, because it is impossible to include all of...

The purpose of this book is to establish a connection between the traditional field of empirical economic research and the emerging area of empirical financial research, and to build a bridge between theoretical developments in these areas and their application in practice. Accordingly, it...
