We propose consistent nonparametric tests of conditional independence for time series data. Our methods are motivated from the difference between joint conditional cumulative distribution function (CDF) and the product of conditional CDFs. The difference is transformed into a proper conditional moment restriction (CMR), which forms the basis for our testing procedure. Our test statistics are then constructed using the integrated moment restrictions that are equivalent to the CMR. We establish the asymptotic behavior of the test statistics under the null, the alternative, and the sequence of local alternatives converging to conditional independence at the parametric rate. Our tests are implemented with the assistance of a multiplier bootstrap. Monte Carlo simulations are conducted to evaluate the finite sample performance of the proposed tests. We apply our tests to examine the predictability of equity risk premium using variance risk premium for different horizons and find that there exist various degrees of nonlinear predictability at mid-run and long-run horizons.
我们提出了时间序列数据条件独立性的一致性非参数检验。我们的方法是由联合条件累积分布函数(CDF)和条件累积分布函数的乘积之间的差异所激发的。差异被转换成适当的条件力矩限制(CMR),它构成了我们测试程序的基础。然后使用与CMR等效的集成力矩限制构造我们的测试统计量。我们建立了检验统计量在空值、可选项和局部可选项序列下的渐近性,它们以参数速率收敛于条件无关。我们的测试是在乘数引导的帮助下实现的。通过蒙特卡罗模拟来评估所提出的测试的有限样本性能。我们运用方差风险溢价对不同视界的股票风险溢价的可预测性进行检验,发现在中期和长期视界存在不同程度的非线性可预测性。

Estimating Demand with Multi-Homing in Two-Sided Markets 双边市场中多重归巢的需求估计
Pub Date : 2021-08-01 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.3905859

We empirically investigate the relevance of multi-homing in two-sided markets. First, we build a micro-founded structural econometric model that encompasses demand for differentiated products and allows for multi-homing on both sides of themarket. We then use an original dataset on the Italian daily newspaper market that includes information on double-homing by readers to estimate readers’ and advertisers’ demand. The results show that an econometric model that does not allow for multi-homing is likely to produce biased estimates of demand on both sides of the market. In particular, on the reader side, accounting for multi-homing helps to recognize complementarity between products; on the advertising side, it allows to measure to what extent advertising demand depends on the shares of exclusive and overlapping readers.
我们实证研究了双边市场中多重住房的相关性。首先,我们建立了一个微观结构计量经济模型,该模型包含了对差异化产品的需求,并允许市场双方的多重归巢。然后,我们使用意大利日报市场的原始数据集,其中包括读者的双重归巢信息,以估计读者和广告商的需求。结果表明,不考虑多重住房的计量经济模型可能会对市场双方的需求产生有偏差的估计。特别是,在读者方面,考虑多归巢有助于认识产品之间的互补性;在广告方面,它可以衡量广告需求在多大程度上取决于独家读者和重叠读者的份额。

Does Court Type, Size and Employee Satisfaction Affect Court Speed?. Hierarchical Linear Modelling With Evidence from Kenya 法院类型、规模和员工满意度是否影响庭审速度?基于肯尼亚证据的层次线性模型

In most judicial institutions, well-functioning courts are usually expected to process a large volume of work within demanding timelines. For courts to have played their role of enhancing access to justice, the yardstick of success is often viewed through the lens of the speed attained in rendering justice. In Kenya, despite the desirable timeline for finalizing most of the cases being ‘within 360 days’ from the date of case filing in courts, by the end of June 2020, 58 per cent of the unresolved cases had surpassed this timeline and subsequently classified as backlog. In the period 2018/19, the percentage of civil cases that were resolved within the set timeline by High Court and Magistrate Court, the two largest court types by volume of work, was 37 and 42 per cent respectively. Over the same period, the percentage of criminal cases that were resolved within the set timeline was 42 and 84 per cent for the two court types respectively. Evidently therefore, the Kenyan courts had not managed to resolve cases within the desirable timeline. To unearth the reasons that could be occasioning the delay, this study investigated the factors that were potentially affecting court speed. Specifically, the study set out to determine the variation in court speed attributable to court type, and further analyze the effect of court size and employee satisfaction on court speed. This was achieved through the use of Hierarchical Linear Modelling, cross sectional data for the period 2018/19 and estimation using Restricted Maximum Likelihood technique. The results revealed the existence of relatively high variation in court speed that is attributable to court type, and that the smaller the court size, the higher the court speed. Further, high level of employee satisfaction was found to increase timely resolution of cases. Consequently, diverse strategies and policy actions for enhancing court speed have been suggested.
在大多数司法机构中,通常期望运作良好的法院在苛刻的时限内处理大量工作。要使法院发挥其促进诉诸司法的作用,衡量成功与否的标准往往是看其伸张正义的速度。在肯尼亚,尽管从案件提交法院之日起“360天内”完成大多数案件的理想时间表,但到2020年6月底,58%的未解决案件超过了这一时间表,随后被归类为积压案件。在2018/19年度,高等法院和裁判官法院(按工作量计算最大的两种法院)在规定时间内解决的民事案件比例分别为37%和42%。在同一时期,这两种法院在规定时间内解决的刑事案件的百分比分别为42%和84%。因此,肯尼亚法院显然未能在理想的时间内解决案件。为了找出可能导致延迟的原因,本研究调查了可能影响法庭速度的因素。具体而言,本研究旨在确定法庭类型对法庭速度的影响,并进一步分析法庭规模和员工满意度对法庭速度的影响。这是通过使用分层线性模型、2018/19年期间的横截面数据和使用限制最大似然技术进行估计来实现的。结果表明,由于场地类型的不同,场地规模越小,场地速度越快。此外,高水平的员工满意度被发现可以增加案件的及时解决。因此,提出了提高法庭速度的各种战略和政策行动。

Development of Estimation and Forecasting Method in Intelligent Decision Support Systems 智能决策支持系统中估计与预测方法的发展

The method of estimation and forecasting in intelligent decision support systems is developed. The essence of the proposed method is the ability to analyze the current state of the object under analysis and the possibility of short-term forecasting of the object state. The possibility of objective and complete analysis is achieved through the use of improved fuzzy temporal models of the object state, an improved procedure for forecasting the object state and an improved procedure for training evolving artificial neural networks. The concepts of a fuzzy cognitive model, in contrast to the known fuzzy cognitive models, are connected by subsets of fuzzy influence degrees, arranged in chronological order, taking into account the time lags of the corresponding components of the multidimensional time series. This method is based on fuzzy temporal models and evolving artificial neural networks. The peculiarity of this method is the ability to take into account the type of a priori uncertainty about the state of the analyzed object (full awareness of the object state, partial awareness of the object state and complete uncertainty about the object state). The ability to clarify information about the state of the monitored object is achieved through the use of an advanced training procedure. It consists in training the synaptic weights of the artificial neural network, the type and parameters of the membership function, as well as the architecture of individual elements and the architecture of the artificial neural network as a whole. The object state forecasting procedure allows conducting multidimensional analysis, consideration and indirect influence of all components of a multidimensional time series with different time shifts relative to each other under uncertainty.
提出了智能决策支持系统的估计与预测方法。该方法的本质是分析被分析对象当前状态的能力和对对象状态进行短期预测的可能性。通过使用改进的对象状态模糊时间模型、改进的对象状态预测程序和改进的训练进化人工神经网络的程序,实现了客观和完整分析的可能性。与已知的模糊认知模型相比,模糊认知模型的概念通过按时间顺序排列的模糊影响程度子集连接,同时考虑到多维时间序列相应组件的时间滞后。该方法基于模糊时间模型和进化人工神经网络。该方法的特点是能够考虑被分析对象状态的先验不确定性类型(对象状态的完全感知、对象状态的部分感知和对象状态的完全不确定性)。通过使用先进的训练程序,能够澄清有关被监视对象状态的信息。它包括训练人工神经网络的突触权值,隶属函数的类型和参数,以及单个元素的结构和人工神经网络的整体结构。对象状态预测过程允许在不确定情况下,对具有不同相对时移的多维时间序列的所有分量进行多维分析、考虑和间接影响。

Estimating Financial Networks by Realized Interdependencies: A Restricted Autoregressive Approach 利用已实现的相互依赖性估计金融网络:一种限制性自回归方法
Pub Date : 2021-04-07 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.3821566

We develop a network-based vector autoregressive approach to uncover the interactions among
financial assets by integrating multiple realized measures based on high-frequency data. Under
a restricted parameter structure, our approach allows the capture of cross-sectional and time ependencies embedded in a large panel of assets through the decomposition of these two blocks of
dependencies. We propose a block coordinate descent (BCD) procedure for the least square estimation and investigate its theoretical properties. By integrating realized returns, realized volume, and realized volatilities of 1095 individual U.S. stocks over fifteen years, we illustrate that our approach identifies a large array of interdependencies with a limited computational effort. As a direct consequence of the estimated model, we provide a new ranking for the systemically important financial institutions (SIFIs) and carry out an impulse-response analysis to quantify the effects of adverse shocks on the financial system.
我们开发了一种基于网络的向量自回归方法,通过整合基于高频数据的多个已实现度量来揭示金融资产之间的相互作用。在有限的参数结构下,我们的方法允许通过分解这两个依赖块来捕获嵌入在大型资产面板中的横截面和时间依赖关系。提出了一种块坐标下降法(BCD)进行最小二乘估计,并研究了其理论性质。通过整合15年来1095只美国个股的已实现收益、已实现成交量和已实现波动率,我们说明,我们的方法以有限的计算努力识别了大量的相互依赖关系。作为估计模型的直接结果,我们为系统重要性金融机构(sifi)提供了一个新的排名,并进行了脉冲响应分析,以量化不利冲击对金融体系的影响。

When Good Balance Goes Bad: a Discussion of Common Pitfalls When Using Entropy Balancing 当好的平衡变坏:讨论使用熵平衡时的常见陷阱

For many accounting research questions, empirical researchers cannot randomly assign observations to treatment conditions or identify a quasi-experimental setting. In these cases, entropy balancing (Hainmueller 2012) is an increasingly popular statistical method for identifying a control sample that is nearly identical to the treated sample with respect to observable covariates. In this paper, we compare entropy balancing’s approach of reweighting control sample observations to ordinary least squares and propensity score matching. We demonstrate that researchers applying entropy balancing in empirical settings involving panel data with features common in accounting research may encounter implementation issues that render the resulting estimates sensitive to relatively minor changes in the control sample or the research design. Using the setting of estimating the Big-N audit fee premium, we empirically demonstrate these issues and propose solutions.
对于许多会计研究问题,实证研究人员不能随机分配观察到治疗条件或确定准实验设置。在这些情况下,熵平衡(Hainmueller 2012)是一种越来越流行的统计方法,用于识别在可观察协变量方面与处理样本几乎相同的控制样本。本文将熵平衡的控制样本观测值重加权方法与普通最小二乘和倾向评分匹配方法进行了比较。我们证明,在涉及具有会计研究中常见特征的面板数据的实证设置中应用熵平衡的研究人员可能会遇到实施问题,这些问题使所得估计对控制样本或研究设计中相对较小的变化敏感。利用估算大n审计费用溢价的设置,实证地论证了这些问题,并提出了解决方案。

Addressing Endogeneity Without Strong Instruments: A Practical Guide to Heteroskedasticity-Based Instrumental Variables (HBIV) 在没有强大工具的情况下解决内生性:基于异方差的工具变量(HBIV)的实用指南
Pub Date : 2021-02-05 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.3293789
Bernardo F. Quiroga
This article provides an overview and guide to implementing heteroskedaticity-based instrumental variables (HBIV) in regression models with endogeneity, i.e., one or more of the regressors are correlated with the disturbance term. We discuss the problem of implementing standard instrumental variables (IV) solutions to the endogeneity problem when external instruments are either insufficient or not readily available, and when the disturbances are heteroskedastic, present a solution to the problem. We illustrate the implementation of HBIV in the presence of strong external instruments, weak external instruments, and no external instruments, using both traditional IV and HBIV. Finally, we discuss the pros and cons of using HBIV methods to address endogeneity.
本文提供了在具有内质性的回归模型中实现基于异方差的工具变量(HBIV)的概述和指南,即一个或多个回归量与干扰项相关。我们讨论了当外部仪器不足或不容易获得时实现标准仪器变量(IV)解决内生性问题的问题,以及当干扰是异方差的时候,提出了解决问题的方法。我们举例说明了在存在强外部工具、弱外部工具和无外部工具的情况下,使用传统IV和HBIV进行HBIV的实施。最后,我们讨论了使用HBIV方法解决内生性问题的利弊。

Prediction is a forecast of an event which may happen in future. Predictions are not necessary based upon the prior knowledge or experience for an event of interest. Every person does predictions but the quality of the predictions differs from person to person and that classifies them as a successful or unsuccessful person. In order to make quality predictions it is necessary to automate the making prediction process. Machine Learning is a field where in computer machines are trained to make accurate predictions. Some of the applications of machine learning predictions are weather forecasting, disease detection, traffic prediction, email and malware detection, fraud detection. Prediction of employability for a candidate in a recruitment process is been calculated by using machine learning. Organizations are now investing in machine learning based automated systems for identifying a right skilled candidate. This research introduces a model buildout to predict the employability of a candidate by using Logistic Regression. A group of aspirants were tested in the suggested model and outcome are analyzed in this research paper.
预测是对将来可能发生的事件的预测。没有必要基于对感兴趣的事件的先验知识或经验进行预测。每个人都会做预测,但预测的质量因人而异,这就区分了成功人士和不成功人士。为了进行高质量的预测,有必要使预测过程自动化。机器学习是一个训练计算机机器做出准确预测的领域。机器学习预测的一些应用包括天气预报、疾病检测、交通预测、电子邮件和恶意软件检测、欺诈检测。在招聘过程中,候选人的就业能力预测是通过使用机器学习来计算的。组织现在正在投资基于机器学习的自动化系统,以识别合适的技能候选人。本研究采用逻辑回归的方法,建立一个预测候选人就业能力的模型。本文对一组有抱负的人进行了模型测试,并对结果进行了分析。

Since Bai (2009, Econometrica 77, 1229–1279), considerable extensions have been made to panel data models with interactive fixed effects (IFEs). However, little work has been conducted to understand the associated iterative algorithm, which, to the best of our knowledge, is the most commonly adopted approach in this line of research. In this paper, we refine the algorithm of panel data models with IFEs using the nuclear-norm penalization method and duple least-squares (DLS) iterations. Meanwhile, we allow the regression coefficients to be individual-specific and evolve over time. Accordingly, asymptotic properties are established to demonstrate the theoretical validity of the proposed approach. Furthermore, we show that the proposed methodology exhibits good finite-sample performance using simulation and real data examples.
自Bai (2009, Econometrica 77, 1229-1279)以来,对具有交互固定效应的面板数据模型(IFEs)进行了大量扩展。然而,很少有人进行工作来理解相关的迭代算法,据我们所知,迭代算法是这方面研究中最常用的方法。本文采用核范数惩罚法和双最小二乘迭代法,对面板数据模型的算法进行了改进。同时,我们允许回归系数是个体特定的,并随着时间的推移而演变。通过建立渐近性质证明了该方法的理论有效性。此外,我们通过仿真和实际数据实例表明,所提出的方法具有良好的有限样本性能。

Simplified Stochastic Calculus via Semimartingale Representations 基于半鞅表示的简化随机微积分
Pub Date : 2020-06-21 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.3633638
A. Černý, J. Ruf
We develop a stochastic calculus that makes it easy to capture a variety of predictable transformations of semimartingales such as changes of variables, stochastic integrals, and their compositions. The framework offers a unified treatment of real-valued and complex-valued semimartingales. The proposed calculus is a blueprint for the derivation of new relationships among stochastic processes with specific examples provided below.
