Financial risk control has always been challenging and becomes now an even harder problem as joint extreme events occur more frequently. For decision makers and government regulators, it is therefore important to obtain accurate information on the interdependency of risk factors. Given a...

This paper studies the performance of nonparametric quantile regression as a tool to predict Value at Risk (VaR). The approach is flexible as it requires no assumptions on the form of return distributions. A monotonized double kernel local linear estimator is applied to estimate moderate (1%)...

In this paper, we discuss and compare empirically various ways of computing multistep quantile forecasts of demand, with a special emphasis on the use of the quantile regression methodology. Such forecasts constitute a basis for production planning and inventory management in logistic systems...

A time-series basis decomposition and trend extraction technique known as Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD), designed for multi-scale time-frequency decomposition in non-stationary time-series settings, will be combined with Regularised Covariance Regression (RCR) methods to produce a framework...

Quantile regression is an increasingly important empirical tool in economics and other sciences for analyzing the impact of a set of regressors on the conditional distribution of an outcome. Extremal quantile regression, or quantile regression applied to the tails, is of interest in many...

In this paper, we analyze household load curves through the use of Constrained Smoothing Splines. These estimators are natural smoothing splines that allow to incorporate periodic shape constraints. Since the time pattern of electricity demand combines strong periodical regularities with abrupt...

This paper studies standard predictive regressions in economic systems governed by persistent vector autoregressive dynamics for the state variables. In particular, all - or a subset - of the variables may be fractionally integrated, which induces a spurious regression problem. We propose a new...

The paper develops estimation and inference methods for econometric models with partial identification, focusing on models defined by moment inequalities and equalities. Main applications of this framework include analysis of game-theoretic models, regression with missing and mismeasured data,...
