In this paper, we study the asymptotic behavior of the sequential empirical process and the sequential empirical copula process, both constructed from residuals of multivariate stochastic volatility models. Applications for the detection of structural changes and specification tests of the...

Specification procedures for testing the null hypothesis of a Gaussian distribution for the innovations of GARCH models are compared using simulations. More precisely, Cramér–von Mises and Kolmogorov–Smirnov type statistics are computed for empirical processes based on the standardized...
