We study the modelling of large data sets of high frequency returns using a long memory stochastic volatility (LMSV) model. Issues pertaining to estimation and forecasting of datasets using the LMSV model are studied in detail. Furthermore, a new method of de-seasonalising the volatility in high...

We consider semiparametric estimation of the memory parameter in a long memorystochastic volatility model. We study the estimator based on a log periodogramregression as originally proposed by Geweke and Porter-Hudak (1983,Journal of Time Series Analysis 4, 221 238). Expressions for the...
