Adaptive Realized Hyperbolic GARCH Process: Stability and Estimation

In this paper, we propose an Adaptive Realized Hyperbolic GARCH (A-Realized HYGARCH) process to model the long memory of high-frequency time series with possible structural breaks. The structural change is modeled by allowing the intercept to follow the smooth and flexible function form introduced by Gallant (1984). In addition, stability conditions of the process are investigated. A Monte Carlo study is investigated in order to illustrate the performance of the A-Realized HYGARCH process compared to the Realized HYGARCH with or without structural change.

Estimation for seasonal fractional ARIMA with stable innovations via the empirical characteristic function method

Maximum likelihood methods, while widely used, may be non-robust due to disagreement between the assumptions upon which the models are based and the true density probability distribution of observed data. Because the Empirical Characteristic Function (ECF) is the Fourier transform of the empirical distribution function, it retains all the information in the sample but can overcome difficulties arising from the likelihood. This paper discusses an estimation method via the ECF for stable seasonal fractional ARIMA processes. Under some assumptions, we show that the resulting estimators are consistent and asymptotically normally distributed. For comparison purpose, we consider also the MCMC Whittle method developed by Ndongo et al. (2010). The performance of the two methods is discussed using a Monte Carlo simulation.
