We consider a rank-based technique for estimating GARCH model parameters, some of which are scale transformations of conventional GARCH parameters. The estimators are obtained by minimizing a rank-based residual dispersion function similar to the one given in Jaeckel (1972). They are useful for GARCH order selection and preliminary estimation. We give a limiting distribution for the rank estima...

This paper presents a framework for constructing structured, possibly compactly supported Banach frames and atomic decompositions decomposition spaces. Such space $\def\DecompSp#1#2#3#4{{\mathcal{D}({#1},L_{#4}^{#2},{#3})}}\Deco

In this paper, we demonstrate that most of Tokyo stock return data sets have volatility persistence and it is due to a parameter change in underlying GARCH models. For testing for a parameter change, we use the cusum test, devised by Lee et al. (2003), based on the residuals from GARCH models. A simulation study shows that a parameter change in GARCH models can mislead analysts to choose an IGA...

We present a new approach to generalised autoregressive conditional het-eroscedasitic (GARCH) modelling for asset returns. Instead of attempting to choose a speciic distribution for the errors, as in the usual GARCH model formulation, we use a nonparametric distribution to estimate these errors. This takes into account the common problems encountered in nancial time series, for example, asymmet...

Instead of attempting to choose a speciic distribution for the errors, as in the usual GARCH model formulation, we use a nonparametric distribution to estimate these errors.

Heart Rate Variability (HRV) series exhibit long memory and time-varying conditional variance. This work considers the Fractionally Integrated AutoRegressive Moving Average (ARFIMA) models with Generalized AutoRegressive Conditional Heteroscedastic (GARCH) errors. ARFIMA-GARCH models may be used to capture and remove long memory and estimate the conditional volatility in 24 h HRV recordings. Th...

It is well known in the literature that the joint parameter estimation of the Smooth Autoregressive – Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity (STAR-GARCH) models poses many numerical challenges with unknown causes. This paper aims to uncover the root of the numerical difficulties in obtaining stable parameter estimates for a class of three-regime STAR-GARCH models using Quasi-...

Financial time series are frequently met both in daily life and the scientific world. It is clearly of importance to study the financial time series, to understand the mechanism giving rise to the data, and/or p...
