Estimating weak periodic vector autoregressive time series

This article develops the asymptotic distribution of the least squares estimator of the model parameters in periodicvector autoregressive time series models (hereafter PVAR) with uncorrelated but dependent innovations. When theinnovations are dependent, this asymptotic distributions can be quite different from that of PVAR models with in-dependent and identically distributed (iid for short) innovations developed in Ursu and Duchesne (2009). Modifiedversions of the Wald tests are proposed for testing linear restrictions on the parameters. These asymptotic results are illustrated by Monte Carlo experiments. An application to a bivariate real financial data is also proposed

Diagnostic Checking in Multivariate ARMA Models With Dependent Errors Using Normalized Residual Autocorrelations

In this paper we derive the asymptotic distribution of normalized residual empirical autocovariances and autocorrelations under weak assumptions on the noise. We propose new portmanteau statistics for vector autoregressive moving-average (VARMA) models with uncorrelated but non-independent innovations by using a self-normalization approach. We establish the asymptotic distribution of the proposed statistics. This asymptotic distribution is quite different from the usual chi-squared approximation used under the independent and identically distributed assumption on the noise, or the weighted sum of independent chi-squared random variables obtained under nonindependent innovations. A set of Monte Carlo experiments and an application to the daily returns of the CAC40 is presented.

Portmanteau test for a class of multivariate asymmetric power GARCH model

We establish the asymptotic behaviour of the sum of squared residuals autocovariances and autocorrelations for the class of multi-variate power transformed asymmetric models. We then derive a portmanteau test. We establish the asymptotic distribution of the proposed statistics. These asymptotic results are illustrated by Monte Carlo experiments. An application to a bivariate real financial data is also proposed.

Diagnostic checking in FARIMA models with uncorrelated but non-independent error terms

This work considers the problem of modified portmanteau tests for testing the adequacy of FARIMA models under the assumption that the errors are uncorrelated but not necessarily independent (i.e. weak FARIMA). We first study the joint distribution of the least squares estimator and the noise empirical autocovariances. We then derive the asymp-totic distribution of residual empirical autocovariances and autocorrelations. We deduce the asymptotic distribution of the Ljung-Box (or Box-Pierce) modified portmanteau statistics for weak FARIMA models. We also propose another method based on a self-normalization approach to test the adequacy of FARIMA models. Finally some simulation studies are presented to corroborate our theoretical work. An application to the Standard \& Poor's 500 and Nikkei returns also illustrate the practical relevance of our theoretical results.

Estimating FARIMA models with uncorrelated but non-independent error terms

In this paper we derive the asymptotic properties of the least squares estimator (LSE) of fractionally integrated autoregressive moving-average (FARIMA) models under the assumption that the errors are uncorrelated but not necessarily independent nor martingale differences. We relax considerably the independence and even the martingale difference assumptions on the innovation process to extend the range of application of the FARIMA models. We propose a consistent estimator of the asymptotic covariance matrix of the LSE which may be very different from that obtained in the standard framework. A self-normalized approach to confidence interval construction for weak FARIMA model parameters is also presented. All our results are done under a mixing assumption on the noise. Finally, some simulation studies and an application to the daily returns of stock market indices are presented to corroborate our theoretical work.

Estimation of multivariate asymmetric power GARCH models

It is now widely accepted that volatility models have to incorporate the so-called leverage effect in order to to model the dynamics of daily financial returns.We suggest a new class of multivariate power transformed asymmetric models. It includes several functional forms of multivariate GARCH models which are of great interest in financial modeling and time series literature. We provide an explicit necessary and sufficient condition to establish the strict stationarity of the model. We derive the asymptotic properties of the quasi-maximum likelihood estimator of the parameters. These properties are established both when the power of the transformation is known or is unknown. The asymptotic results are illustrated by Monte Carlo experiments. An application to real financial data is also proposed.

Estimation of weak ARMA models with regime changes

In this paper we derive the asymptotic properties of the least squares estimator (LSE) of autoregressive moving-average (ARMA) models with regime changes under the assumption that the errors are uncorrelated but not necessarily independent. Relaxing the independence assumption considerably extends the range of application of the class of ARMA models with regime changes. Conditions are given for the consistency and asymptotic normality of the LSE. A particular attention is given to the estimation of the asymptotic covariance matrix, which may be very different from that obtained in the standard framework. The theoretical results are illustrated by means of Monte Carlo experiments.

Distribution of residual autocorrelations for multiplicative seasonal ARMA models with uncorrelated but non-independent error terms

In this paper we consider portmanteau tests for testing the adequacy of multiplicative seasonal autoregressive moving-average (SARMA) models under the assumption that the errors are uncorrelated but not necessarily independent.We relax the standard independence assumption on the error term in order to extend the range of application of the SARMA models.We study the asymptotic distributions of residual and normalized residual empirical autocovariances and autocorrelations underweak assumptions on the noise. We establish the asymptotic behaviour of the proposed statistics. A set of Monte Carlo experiments and an application to monthly mean total sunspot number are presented.

Portmanteau test for the asymmetric power GARCH model when the power is unknown

It is now widely accepted that, to model the dynamics of daily financial returns, volatility models have to incorporate the so-called leverage effect. We derive the asymptotic behaviour of the squared residuals autocovariances for the class of asymmetric power GARCH model when the power is unknown and is jointly estimated with the model's parameters. We then deduce a portmanteau adequacy test based on the autocovariances of the squared residuals. These asymptotic results are illustrated by Monte Carlo experiments. An application to real financial data is also proposed.
