In this paper we propose a Bayesian method to estimate the hyperbolic diffusion model. The approach is based on the Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method with the likelihood of the discretized process as the approximate posterior likelihood. We demonstrate that the MCMC method Provides a useful...

In this paper we adopt a nonparametric genetic programming (GP) approach to identify the structural changes in the Nikkei spot index and futures price. Due to the dominance of the 'normal' period in sample data, the lead-lag relationship identified in the spot-futures system based on...
