The issue of modelling observations generated in matrix form over time is key in economics, finance and many domains of application. While it is common to model vectors of observations through standard vector time series analysis, original matrix-valued data often reflect different types of...

Impulse response functions (IRFs) are crucial for analyzing the dynamic interactions of macroeconomic variables in vector autoregressive (VAR) models. However, traditional IRF estimation methods often have limitations with assumptions on variable ordering and restrictive identification...

Following the 2007-08 Global Financial Crisis, there have been a growing research interest on the spatial interrelationships between house prices in many countries. This paper examines the spatio-temporal relationship between house prices in the twelve provinces of the Netherlands using a...

In high-dimensional vector autoregressive (VAR) models, it is natural to have large number of predictors relative to the number of observations, and a lack of efficiency in estimation and forecasting. In this context, model selection is a difficult issue and standard procedures may often be...

This paper proposes a Bayesian, graph-based approach to identification in vector autoregressive (VAR) models. In our Bayesian graphical VAR (BGVAR) model, the contemporaneous and temporal causal structures of the structural VAR model are represented by two different graphs. We also provide an...

This paper advances the application of Bayesian graphical structural vector autoregressive (BGSVAR) models to address the problem of impulse response estimation in VAR-based systems. The BGSVAR is designed as a robust empirical framework for impulse response estimation using information from the...
