A Study on "Spurious Long Memory in Nonlinear Time Series Models"
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper discusses the existence of spurious long memory in common nonlinear time series models, namely Markov switching and threshold models. We describe the asymptotic behavior of the process in terms of autocovariance and autocorrelation function and support the theoretical evidences by providing Monte Carlo simulation. The existence of long memory in these nonlinear processes is induced by the nature of the process in certain conditions. In addition, GPH estimator itself introduces bias. JEL classifications: C12, C22

Spurious Memory in Non-Equilibrium Stochastic Models of Imitative Behavior
The origin of the long-range memory in non-equilibrium systems is still an open problem as the phenomenon can be reproduced using models based on Markov processes. In these cases, the notion of spurious memory is introduced. A good example of Markov processes with spurious memory is a stochastic process driven by a non-linear stochastic differential equation (SDE). This example is at odds with ...
متن کاملA Nonlinear Model of Economic Data Related to the German Automobile Industry
Prediction of economic variables is a basic component not only for economic models, but also for many business decisions. But it is difficult to produce accurate predictions in times of economic crises, which cause nonlinear effects in the data. Such evidence appeared in the German automobile industry as a consequence of the financial crisis in 2008/09, which influenced exchange rates and a...
متن کاملتحلیل و پیشبینی اثرات غیرخطی در بازار نفت
This research aims to introduce an ideal model for forecasting Iranian crude oil price movements. It tries to make an all-out analysis of this energy product. Therefore, we tested the ‘predictability’ hypothesis by using the variance ratio test, BDS test and the chaos series test. Later, a structural analysis is a carried out to investigate possible nonlinear patterns in the series. Lyapunov ex...
متن کاملLong Memory in Stock Returns: A Study of Emerging Markets
The present study aimed at investigating the existence of long memory properties in ten emerging stock markets across the globe. When return series exhibit long memory, it indicates that observed returns are not independent over time. If returns are not independent, past returns can help predict future returns, thereby violating the market efficiency hypothesis. It poses a serious challenge to ...
متن کاملWhich Methodology is Better for Combining Linear and Nonlinear Models for Time Series Forecasting?
Both theoretical and empirical findings have suggested that combining different models can be an effective way to improve the predictive performance of each individual model. It is especially occurred when the models in the ensemble are quite different. Hybrid techniques that decompose a time series into its linear and nonlinear components are one of the most important kinds of the hybrid model...
