Bayesian Analysis of Hazard Regression Models under Order Restrictions on Covariate Effects and Ageing

Bhattacharjee, Arnab; Bhattacharjee, Madhuchhanda - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2007

possibly age-varying (non-proportional), and there is multiplicative frailty with arbitrary distribution. Our framework … incorporates a wide variety of order restrictions on covariate dependence and duration dependence (ageing). We propose estimation … on the nature of ageing. For example, relevant theory may suggest that the baseline hazard function decreases with age …

Frailty Correlated Default

DUFFIE, Darrell; ECKNER, Andreas; HOREL, Guillaume; …

We analyze portfolio credit risk in light of dynamic “frailty,” by which the credit qualities of different firms depend … on common unobservable time-varying default covariates. Frailty is estimated to have a large impact on estimated …

Estimating a semiparametric asymmetric stochastic volatility model with a Dirichlet process mixture

Jensen, Mark J.; Maheu, John M. - In: Journal of Econometrics 178 (2014) P3, pp. 523-538

We extend the asymmetric, stochastic, volatility model by modeling the return-volatility distribution nonparametrically. The novelty is modeling this distribution with an infinite mixture of Normals, where the mixture unknowns have a Dirichlet process prior. Cumulative Bayes factors show our...

Estimating a Semiparametric Asymmetric Stochastic Volatility Model with a Dirichlet Process Mixture

Jensen, Mark J.; Maheu, John M. - Rimini Centre for Economic Analysis (RCEA) - 2012

In this paper we extend the parametric, asymmetric, stochastic volatility model (ASV), where returns are correlated with volatility, by flexibly modeling the bivariate distribution of the return and volatility innovations nonparametrically. Its novelty is in modeling the joint, conditional,...

Bayesian semiparametric stochastic volatility modeling

Jensen, Mark J.; Maheu, John M. - 2008

This paper extends the existing fully parametric Bayesian literature on stochastic volatility to allow for more general return distributions. Instead of specifying a particular distribution for the return innovation, we use nonparametric Bayesian methods to flexibly model the skewness and...

Bayesian semiparametric multivariate GARCH modeling

Jensen, Mark J.; Maheu, John M. - 2012

This paper proposes a Bayesian nonparametric modeling approach for the return distribution in multivariate GARCH models. In contrast to the parametric literature, the return distribution can display general forms of asymmetry and thick tails. An infinite mixture of multivariate normals is given...
