A Bayesian dynamic compositional model is introduced that can deal with combining a large set of predictive densities. It extends the mixture of experts and the smoothly mixing regression models by allowing for combination weight dependence across models and time. A compositional model with...

We demonstrate that the parameters controlling skewness and kurtosis in popular equity return models estimated at daily frequency can be obtained almost as precisely as if volatility is observable by simply incorporating the strong information content of realized volatility measures extracted...

Machine learning methods are becoming increasingly popular in economics, due to the increased availability of large datasets. In this paper I evaluate a recently proposed algorithm called Generalized Approximate Message Passing (GAMP), which has been popular in signal processing and compressive...

Affine mortality models are well suited for theoretical and practical application in pricing and risk management of … mortality risk. They produce consistent, closed-form stochastic survival curves allowing for the efficient valuation of … mortality-linked claims. We model USA age-cohort mortality data using five multi-factor affine mortality models. We focus on …
