with nonparametric estimation of the pricing kernel (Empirical Pricing Kernel) given by the ratio of the risk … estimated nonparametrically too. In this framework, we develop the asymptotic distribution theory of the EPK in the L1 sense …, as an alternative to the asymptotic approach, we propose a bootstrap confidence band. The developed theory is helpful for …

We propose a new nonlinear classification method based on a Bayesian "sum-of-trees" model, the Bayesian Additive Classification Tree (BACT), which extends the Bayesian Additive Regression Tree (BART) method into the classification context. Like BART, the BACT is a Bayesian nonparametric additive...

A good description of the dynamics of interest rates is crucial to price derivatives and to hedge corresponding risk. Interest rate modelling in an unstable macroeconomic context motivates one factor models with time varying parameters. In this paper, the local parameter approach is introduced...

Traditionally volatility is viewed as a measure of variability, or risk, of an underlying asset. However recently investors began to look at volatility from a different angle. It happened due to emergence of a market for new derivative instruments - variance swaps. In this paper first we...
