  1. 1. Essays on Time Series Analysis : With Applications to Financial Econometrics

    Author : Daniel Preve; Rolf Larsson; Bent Nielsen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; non-Gaussian time series; nonnegative autoregression; robust estimation; strong convergence; realized volatility; volatility forecast; forecast comparison; Diebold-Mariano test; Statistics; Statistik;

    Abstract : This doctoral thesis is comprised of four papers that all relate to the subject of Time Series Analysis.The first paper of the thesis considers point estimation in a nonnegative, hence non-Gaussian, AR(1) model. The parameter estimation is carried out using a type of extreme value estimators (EVEs). READ MORE

  4. 4. Some Contributions to Heteroscedastic Time Series Analysis and Computational Aspects of Bayesian VARs

    Author : Oskar Gustafsson; Pär Stockhammar; Domenico Giannone; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Time series; heteroscedasticity; variance stabilizing filters; Bayesian vector autoregressions; Bayesian optimization; variational inference; Statistics; statistik;

    Abstract : Time-dependent volatility clustering (or heteroscedasticity) in macroeconomic and financial time series has been analyzed for more than half a century. The inefficiencies it causes in various inference procedures are well known and understood. Despite this, heteroscedasticity is surprisingly often neglected in practical work. READ MORE

    Abstract : Costly reversals of bad policies: the case of the mortgage interest deductionThis paper measures the welfare effects of removing the mortgage interest deduction under a variety of implementation scenarios. To this end, we build a life-cycle model with heterogeneous households calibrated to the U.S. READ MORE
