Time-varying multivariate causal processes
研究了一类广泛的时变多元因果过程,提出了拟极大似然估计方法,并用于分析中美股市的时变关联性。
In this paper, we consider a wide class of time-varying multivariate causal processes that nests many classical and new examples as special cases. We first show the existence of a weakly dependent stationary approximation to initiate our theoretical investigation. We then consider a quasi-maximum likelihood estimation (QMLE), and provide both point-wise and uniform inferences to coefficient functions of interest. The theoretical findings are further examined through extensive simulations. Finally, we show empirical relevance of our study by evaluating both temporal and contemporaneous connectedness between the stock markets of China and U.S.
