This paper considers a flexible class of time series models generated by Gegenbauer polynomials incorporating the long memory in stochastic volatility (SV) components in order to develop the General Long Memory SV (GLMSV) model. We examine the corresponding statistical properties of this model,...

This paper rationalizes the LASSO algorithm based on uncertain fat-tail priors and max-min robust optimization. Our rationalization excludes heuristic learning or restrictive prior assumptions in the original interpretation of LASSO (Tibshirani (1996)). In our setting, economic agents...

In this paper, we propose formulations and algorithms for robust portfolio optimization under both aleatory uncertainty (i.e., natural variability) and epistemic uncertainty (i.e., imprecise probabilistic information) arising from interval data. Epistemic uncertainty is represented using two...
