This paper presents a novel copula-based autoregressive framework for multilayer arrays of integer-valued time series with tensor structure. It complements recent advances in tensor time series that predominantly focus on real-valued data and overlook the unique properties of integer-valued time...

This paper extends the ordinary quasi-likelihood estimator for stochastic volatility models based on non-Gaussian Ornstein-Uhlenbeck (OU) processes to vector processes. Despite the fact that multivariate modeling of asset returns is essential for portfolio optimization and risk management --...

In the setup of i.i.d. observations and a real valued differentiable functional T, locally asymptotic upper bounds are derived for the power of one-sided tests (simple, versus large values of T) and for the confidence probability of lower confidence limits (for the value of T), in the case that...

Couples from Western countries tend to delay their pregnancies, which may affect their ability to obtain a live birth. We assessed the association between male age and the risk of spontaneous abortion taking into account woman's age. We performed telephone interviews on a ross-sectional random...

We consider the partially linear model relating a response Y to predictors (X,T) with mean function XT ß + g (T) when the X's are measured with additive error. The semiparametric likelihood estimate of Severini and Staniswalis (1994) leads to biased estimates of both the parameter ß and the...

We consider the partially linear model relating a response Y to predictors (X,T) with mean function XT Ø + g(T) when the T's are measured with additive error. We derive an estimator of Ø by modification local-likelihood method. The resulting estimator of Ø is shown to be asymptotically...

Recent results on so-called SEMIFAR models introduced by Beran (1997) are discussed. The nonparametric deterministic trend is estimated by a kernel method. The differencing and fractional differencing parameters as well as the autoregressive coefficients are estimated by an approximate maximum...

We propose geoadditive survival models for analyzing effects jointly with possibly nonlinear effects of other covariates. Within a unified Bayesian frame work, our approach extends the classical Cox model to a more general multiplicative hazard rate model, augmenting the common linear predictor...

High-dimensional regression problems which reveal dynamic behavior are typically analyzed by time propagation of a few number of factors. The inference on the whole system is then based on the low-dimensional time series analysis. Such highdimensional problems occur frequently in many different...

We apply additive mixed regression models (AMM) to estimate hedonic price equations. Non-linear effects of continuous covariates as well as a smooth time trend are modeled non-parametrically through P-splines. Unobserved district-specific heterogeneity is modeled in two ways: First, by location...
