We consider two problems concerning locating change points in a linear regression model. One involves jump discontinuities (change-point) in a regression model and the other involves regression lines connected at unknown points. We compare four methods for estimating single or multiple change...

We simplify the implementation of some elliptical copula regression models through the normal representation. Both copula and marginal probability density functions are expressed as the scale mixtures of normals to facilitate the estimation procedure. With the fact that all elliptical...

This paper presents a CAPM-based threshold quantile regression model with GARCH specification to examine relations between stock excess returns and “abnormal trading volume.” By employing the Bayesian MCMC method with asymmetric Laplace distribution to six daily Dow Jones Industrial stocks,...
