Full textEconomic downturn and recession that many countries experienced in the wake of the global financial crisis demonstrate how important but difficult it is to forecast macroeconomic fluctuations, especially within a short time horizon. The doctoral dissertation studies, analyses and develops models for economic growth forecasting. The set of information coming from economic activity is vast and disparate. In fact, time series coming from real and financial economy do not have the same characteristics, both in terms of sampling frequency and predictive power. Therefore short-term forecasting models should both allow the use of mixed-frequency data and parsimony. The first chapter is dedicated to time series econometrics within a mixed-frequency framework. The second chapter contains two empirical works that sheds light on macro-financial linkages by assessing the leading role of the daily financial volatility in macroeconomic prediction during the Great Recession. The third chapter extends mixed-frequency model into a Bayesian framework and presents an empirical study using a stochastic volatility augmented mixed data sampling model. The fourth chapter focuses on variable selection techniques in mixed-frequency models for short-term forecasting. We address the selection issue by developing mixed-frequency-based dimension reduction techniques in a cross-validation procedure that allows automatic in-sample selection based on recent forecasting performances. Our model succeeds in constructing an objective variable selection with broad applicability

Full textIn neurophysiological time series, strong neural oscillations are observed in the mammalian brain, and the natural processing tools are thus centered on narrow-band linear filtering.As this approach is too reductive, we propose new methods to represent these signals.We first focus on the study of phase-amplitude coupling (PAC), which consists in an amplitude modulation of a high frequency band, time-locked with a specific phase of a slow neural oscillation.We propose to use driven autoregressive models (DAR), to capture PAC in a probabilistic model. Giving a proper model to the signal enables model selection by using the likelihood of the model, which constitutes a major improvement in PAC estimation.%We first present different parametrization of DAR models, with fast inference algorithms and stability discussions.Then, we present how to use DAR models for PAC analysis, demonstrating the advantage of the model-based approach on three empirical datasets.Then, we explore different extensions to DAR models, estimating the driving signal from the data, PAC in multivariate signals, or spectro-temporal receptive fields.Finally, we also propose to adapt convolutional sparse coding (CSC) models for neurophysiological time-series, extending them to heavy-tail noise distribution and multivariate decompositions. We develop efficient inference algorithms for each formulation, and show that we obtain rich unsupervised signal representations

This thesis proposes novel methods to address specific challenges in analyzing the frequency- and time-domain properties of nonstationary time series data motivated by the study of electrophysiological signals. A new method is proposed for the simultaneous and automatic analysis of the association between the time-varying power spectrum and covariates. The procedure adaptively partitions the grid of time and covariate values into an unknown number of approximately stationary blocks and nonparametrically estimates local spectra within blocks through penalized splines. The approach is formulated in a fully Bayesian framework, in which the number and locations of partition points are random, and fit using reversible jump Markov chain Monte Carlo techniques. Estimation and inference averaged over the distribution of partitions allows for the accurate analysis of spectra with both smooth and abrupt changes. The new methodology is used to analyze the association between the time-varying spectrum of heart rate variability and self-reported sleep quality in a study of older adults serving as the primary caregiver for their ill spouse. Another method proposed in this dissertation develops a unique framework for automatically identifying bands of frequencies exhibiting similar nonstationary behavior. This proposal provides a standardized, unifying approach to constructing customized frequency bands for different signals under study across different settings. A frequency-domain, iterative cumulative sum procedure is formulated to identify frequency bands that exhibit similar nonstationary patterns in the power spectrum through time. A formal hypothesis testing procedure is also developed to test which, if any, frequency bands remain stationary. This method is shown to consistently estimate the number of frequency bands and the location of the upper and lower bounds defining each frequency band. This method is used to estimate frequency bands useful in summarizing nonstationary behavior of full night heart rate variability data.

A previsão de séries temporais é um assunto de grande importância para diversas áreas, podendo servir como base para planejamento e controle, entre outros. As formas mais comuns de previsão são as pontuais. É arriscado, no entanto, planejadores tomarem decisões unicamente com base em previsões pontuais, pois séries reais são compostas por uma parte aleatória que não pode ser definida por modelagem matemática. Um modo de contornar este problema é realizando previsões intervalares. Estas fornecem informações sobre as incertezas das previsões pontuais, o que auxilia o planejador em suas decisões. Modelos de lógica fuzzy têm sido investigados na literatura de previsão devido a sua capacidade de modelar incertezas. Apesar disso, sistemas de lógica fuzzy Mamdani (MFLS) foram pouco investigados no tema, comparando-se a outros tipos de modelagens fuzzy. Ademais, entende-se que a literatura de previsão intervalar com modelos fuzzy é limitada. Neste contexto, este trabalho propõe um método para construção de previsões intervalares a partir das previsões pontuais do modelo MFLS de tipo-1 (T1 MFLS). O método proposto para construção de previsões intervalares do MFLS é baseado na reamostragem de erros in-sample. O modelo T1 MFLS é construído com uma heurística (para partição do universo de discurso das variáveis do modelo) e com a seleção da entrada do modelo. Previsões pontuais e intervalares são produzidas para séries horárias de carga de energia elétrica. A literatura de modelos fuzzy de previsão é revisada.
Time series forecasting is an important subject for many areas; it can serve as basis for planning and control, among others. The most common type of forecast is the point forecast. It is, nevertheless, risky to make decisions based on point forecasts, considering that real time series are composed by a random part that cannot be exactly defined by mathematical modeling. One way to by-pass this problem is by producing interval forecasts. These provide information about point forecasts reliability, what helps the planner make his decisions. Fuzzy logic models have been investigated in the forecasting literature due to their ability to model uncertainties. In spite of this, Mamdani fuzzy logic systems (MFLS) have been less investigated in this subject than other types of fuzzy modeling approaches. Furthermore, it is understood that the literature of interval forecasting with fuzzy models is very limited. In this context, this work proposes a method for creating interval prediction from point forecasts of a type-1 MFLS (T1 MFLS). The proposed method for interval forecast construction is based on the resampling of in-sample errors. The T1 MFLS model is constructed with a heuristic (that makes the partition of the universe of discourse of the model s variables) and with selection of the model s inputs. Point and interval forecasts are produced for hourly electricity load series. The literature of fuzzy models applied in forecasting is reviewed.

Full textThis manuscript proposes new robust estimation methods for the autocovariance and autocorrelation matrices functions of stationary multivariates time series that may have random additives outliers. These functions play an important role in the identification and estimation of time series model parameters. We first propose new estimators of the autocovariance and of autocorrelation matrices functions constructed using a spectral approach considering the periodogram matrix periodogram which is the natural estimator of the spectral density matrix. As in the case of the classic autocovariance and autocorrelation matrices functions estimators, these estimators are affected by aberrant observations. Thus, any identification or estimation procedure using them is directly affected, which leads to erroneous conclusions. To mitigate this problem, we propose the use of robust statistical techniques to create estimators resistant to aberrant random observations.As a first step, we propose new estimators of autocovariance and autocorrelation functions of univariate time series. The time and frequency domains are linked by the relationship between the autocovariance function and the spectral density. As the periodogram is sensitive to aberrant data, we get a robust estimator by replacing it with the $M$-periodogram. The $M$-periodogram is obtained by replacing the Fourier coefficients related to periodogram calculated by the standard least squares regression with the ones calculated by the $M$-robust regression. The asymptotic properties of estimators are established. Their performances are studied by means of numerical simulations for different sample sizes and different scenarios of contamination. The empirical results indicate that the proposed methods provide close values of those obtained by the classical autocorrelation function when the data is not contaminated and it is resistant to different contamination scenarios. Thus, the estimators proposed in this thesis are alternative methods that can be used for time series with or without outliers.The estimators obtained for univariate time series are then extended to the case of multivariate series. This extension is simplified by the fact that the calculation of the cross-periodogram only involves the Fourier coefficients of each component from the univariate series. Thus, the $M$-periodogram matrix is a robust periodogram matrix alternative to build robust estimators of the autocovariance and autocorrelation matrices functions. The asymptotic properties are studied and numerical experiments are performed. As an example of an application with real data, we use the proposed functions to adjust an autoregressive model by the Yule-Walker method to Pollution data collected in the Vitória region Brazil.Finally, the robust estimation of the number of factors in large factorial models is considered in order to reduce the dimensionality. It is well known that the values random additive outliers affect the covariance and correlation matrices and the techniques that depend on the calculation of their eigenvalues and eigenvectors, such as the analysis principal components and the factor analysis, are affected. Thus, in the presence of outliers, the information criteria proposed by Bai & Ng (2002) tend to overestimate the number of factors. To alleviate this problem, we propose to replace the standard covariance matrix with the robust covariance matrix proposed in this manuscript. Our Monte Carlo simulations show that, in the absence of contamination, the standard and robust methods are equivalent. In the presence of outliers, the number of estimated factors increases with the non-robust methods while it remains the same using robust methods. As an application with real data, we study pollutant concentrations PM$_{10}$ measured in the Île-de-France region of France
Este manuscrito é centrado em propor novos métodos de estimaçao das funçoes de autocovariancia e autocorrelaçao matriciais de séries temporais multivariadas com e sem presença de observaçoes discrepantes aleatorias. As funçoes de autocovariancia e autocorrelaçao matriciais desempenham um papel importante na analise e na estimaçao dos parametros de modelos de série temporal multivariadas. Primeiramente, nos propomos novos estimadores dessas funçoes matriciais construıdas, considerando a abordagem do dominio da frequencia por meio do periodograma matricial, um estimador natural da matriz de densidade espectral. Como no caso dos estimadores tradicionais das funçoes de autocovariancia e autocorrelaçao matriciais, os nossos estimadores tambem sao afetados pelas observaçoes discrepantes. Assim, qualquer analise subsequente que os utilize é diretamente afetada causando conclusoes equivocadas. Para mitigar esse problema, nos propomos a utilizaçao de técnicas de estatistica robusta para a criaçao de estimadores resistentes as observaçoes discrepantes aleatorias. Inicialmente, nos propomos novos estimadores das funçoes de autocovariancia e autocorrelaçao de séries temporais univariadas considerando a conexao entre o dominio do tempo e da frequencia por meio da relaçao entre a funçao de autocovariancia e a densidade espectral, do qual o periodograma tradicional é o estimador natural. Esse estimador é sensivel as observaçoes discrepantes. Assim, a robustez é atingida considerando a utilizaçao do Mperiodograma. O M-periodograma é obtido substituindo a regressao por minimos quadrados com a M-regressao no calculo das estimativas dos coeficientes de Fourier relacionados ao periodograma. As propriedades assintoticas dos estimadores sao estabelecidas. Para diferentes tamanhos de amostras e cenarios de contaminaçao, a performance dos estimadores é investigada. Os resultados empiricos indicam que os métodos propostos provem resultados acurados. Isto é, os métodos propostos obtêm valores proximos aos da funçao de autocorrelaçao tradicional no contexto de nao contaminaçao dos dados. Quando ha contaminaçao, os M-estimadores permanecem inalterados. Deste modo, as funçoes de M-autocovariancia e de M-autocorrelaçao propostas nesta tese sao alternativas vi aveis para séries temporais com e sem observaçoes discrepantes. A boa performance dos estimadores para o cenario de séries temporais univariadas motivou a extensao para o contexto de séries temporais multivariadas. Essa extensao é direta, haja vista que somente os coeficientes de Fourier relativos à cada uma das séries univariadas sao necessarios para o calculo do periodograma cruzado. Novamente, a relaçao de dualidade entre o dominio da frequência e do tempo é explorada por meio da conexao entre a funçao matricial de autocovariancia e a matriz de densidade espectral de séries temporais multivariadas. É neste sentido que, o presente artigo propoe a matriz M-periodograma como um substituto robusto à matriz periodograma tradicional na criaçao de estimadores das funçoes matriciais de autocovariancia e autocorrelaçao. As propriedades assintoticas sao estudas e experimentos numéricos sao realizados. Como exemplo de aplicaçao à dados reais, nos aplicamos as funçoes propostas no artigo na estimaçao dos parâmetros do modelo de série temporal multivariada pelo método de Yule-Walker para a modelagem dos dados MP10 da regiao de Vitoria/Brasil. Finalmente, a estimaçao robusta dos numeros de fatores em modelos fatoriais aproximados de alta dimensao é considerada com o objetivo de reduzir a dimensionalidade. Ésabido que dados discrepantes afetam as matrizes de covariancia e correlaçao. Em adiçao, técnicas que dependem do calculo dos autovalores e autovetores dessas matrizes, como a analise de componentes principais e a analise fatorial, sao completamente afetadas. Assim, na presença de observaçoes discrepantes, o critério de informaçao proposto por Bai & Ng (2002) tende a superestimar o numero de fatores. [...]

Full textTopologisk dataanalys har visat sig kunna ge ny insikt i många naturvetenskapliga discipliner. Till vår kännedom är tillämpningar av metoden på finansiell data relativt ostuderad. Uppsatsen utforskar topologisk dataanalys på en endimensionell finanstidsserie. Takens inbäddningsteorem används för att transformera en endimensionell tidsserie till ett $m$-dimensionellt punktmoln, där $m$ är inbäddningsdimensionen. Tidsseriens punktmoln representerar tillstånd hos det dynamiska systemet som associeras med den endimensionella tidsserien. För att undersöka hur topologiska tillstånd varierar inom tidsserien används fönsterbaserad teknik för att segmentera den endimensionella tidsserien. Segmentens punktmoln reduceras till 3D med PCA för att göra ihållande homologi beräkningsmässigt möjligt. Syntetiska exempel används för att illustrera processen. En jämförelse mellan topologiska egenskaper hos finansiell tidseries och kvantbrus utförs för att se skillnader mellan dessa. Även komplexitetsberäkningar utförs på dessa data set för att vidare utforska skillnaderna mellan kvantbrus och högfrekventa FX-data. Resultatet visar på att högfrekvent FX-data skiljer sig från kvantbrus och att det finns egenskaper förutom gemensam information hos finansiella tidsserier som topologisk dataanalys visar på.

Full textThe first chapter investigates the distribution of high frequency financial returns, with special emphasis on the intraday seasonality. Using quantile regression, I show the expansions and shrinks of the probability law through the day for three years of 15 minutes sampled stock returns. Returns are more dispersed and less concentrated around the median at the hours near the opening and closing. I provide intraday value at risk assessments and I show how it adapts to changes of dispersion over the day. The tests performed on the out-of-sample forecasts of the value at risk show that the model is able to provide good risk assessments and to outperform standard Gaussian and Student’s t GARCH models.
The second chapter shows that macroeconomic indicators are helpful in forecasting the yield curve. I incorporate a large number of macroeconomic predictors within the Nelson and Siegel (1987) model for the yield curve, which can be cast in a common factor model representation. Rather than including macroeconomic variables as additional factors, I use them to extract the Nelson and Siegel factors. Estimation is performed by EM algorithm and Kalman filter using a data set composed by 17 yields and 118 macro variables. Results show that incorporating large macroeconomic information improves the accuracy of out-of-sample yield forecasts at medium and long horizons.
The third chapter statistically tests whether the Nelson and Siegel (1987) yield curve model is arbitrage-free. Theoretically, the Nelson-Siegel model does not ensure the absence of arbitrage opportunities. Still, central banks and public wealth managers rely heavily on it. Using a non-parametric resampling technique and zero-coupon yield curve data from the US market, I find that the no-arbitrage parameters are not statistically different from those obtained from the Nelson and Siegel model, at a 95 percent confidence level. I therefore conclude that the Nelson and Siegel yield curve model is compatible with arbitrage-freeness.
