On the use of Quasi-Maximum Likelihood Estimation and Indirect Method for Stochastic Volatility models

Ishakova, Gulmira January 2008 (has links)
Stochastic volatility models have been focus for research in recent years. One interesting and important topic has been the estimation procedure. For a given stochastic volatility model this project aims to compare two methods of parameter estimation.

Multivariační kryptografie / Multivariate cryptography

Jančaříková, Irena January 2015 (has links)
This thesis deals with multivariate cryptography. It includes specifically a description of the MQ problem and the proof of it's NP-completness. In the part of the MQ problem there is a description of a general pattern for the creation of the public part of asymetric cryptosystems based on the MQ problem. It this part the thesis describes the QMLE problem, which is important for the figure of the cryptosystem private key based on the MQ problem. Further, the thesis includes a description of the influence of the structure display, which appears in the QMLE problem, on time solution complexity of QMLE problem. The influence of time complexity has been detected by means of experimental measurement with programed algorithm. At the end of the thesis there is specified description of selected multivariety cryptosystems based on the MQ problem. Selected cryptosystems are provided with detailed description of encryption and decryption by means of selected cryptosystems and time estimations of these operations. The thesis includes estimations of memory requirements on saving of private and public key of the selected cryptosystems. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Evaluating Water Transfers in Irrigation Districts

Ghimire, Narishwar 03 October 2013 (has links)
The participation of irrigation districts (IDs) in surface water transfers from agriculture-to-municipal uses is studied by examining IDs’ economic and political behavior, comparing their performance with non-districts (non-IDs), and analyzing the role of economic and demographic heterogeneities in water transfers. Economic modeling, econometric, and analytical techniques are used to investigate these issues. An economic model is developed to investigate how the collective-type institutional structure of IDs in the presence of local interdependencies (between internal water delivery and external water transfers) and increasing returns to scale in the internal water delivery causes reduction in marginal benefit of water transfers and the optimal transfers. The model is also used to investigate how the involvement of the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation in IDs causes more water uses in agriculture availing less for external transfers. The conjunction of multiple uses and exclusion rights without ownership rights in IDs’ water and vote-maximizing political structure of IDs are found to create disincentive for water conservation and transfers. Water transfer responses of IDs and non-IDs are empirically investigated by using a Quasi Maximum Likelihood Estimation (QMLE) technique. Based on the analysis of 38 years of time series water transfer data, IDs are found to be less responsive in water transfers relative to non-IDs in terms of water right-weighted transfers. It is found that water scarcity, private housing permits, and nonfarm establishments are positively associated with water transfers. The marginal effect of water scarcity on water transfer is stronger for non-IDs than for IDs. Impacts of economic and demographic heterogeneities on water transfer behavior of IDs are investigated using unbalanced panel data econometric techniques. Water right holdings and population in nearby cities of IDs are found to be significantly correlated with water transfer behaviors of IDs. Larger IDs with higher water right holdings and higher population centers in nearby cities are found to be more responsive to water transfers. The findings complement previous studies that commend public attention for policy redesign including institutional changes to motivate IDs to increase their water transfer activity.

Nelineární modelování volatility finančních časových řad / Nonlienar volatility modeling in financial time series

Sychova, Maryna January 2021 (has links)
In this work we want to examine selected models with nonlinear volatility and their properties. At the beginning we define models with non-constant variance, especially ARCH, GARCH and EGARCH models. Then we study the probability distributions that are mainly used in the EGARCH model. Then we focus on the EGARCH model, describe the conditions for stationarity and invertibility of the model, define diagnostic tests and QMLE estimates of parameters. In the last chapter we perform simulation studies of the selected models and their application to real data. 1

Estimation, validation et identification des modèles ARMA faibles multivariés

Boubacar Mainassara, Yacouba 28 November 2009 (has links) (PDF)
Dans cette thèse nous élargissons le champ d'application des modèles ARMA (AutoRegressive Moving-Average) vectoriels en considérant des termes d'erreur non corrélés mais qui peuvent contenir des dépendances non linéaires. Ces modèles sont appelés des ARMA faibles vectoriels et permettent de traiter des processus qui peuvent avoir des dynamiques non linéaires très générales. Par opposition, nous appelons ARMA forts les modèles utilisés habituellement dans la littérature dans lesquels le terme d'erreur est supposé être un bruit iid. Les modèles ARMA faibles étant en particulier denses dans l'ensemble des processus stationnaires réguliers, ils sont bien plus généraux que les modèles ARMA forts. Le problème qui nous préoccupera sera l'analyse statistique des modèles ARMA faibles vectoriels. Plus précisément, nous étudions les problèmes d'estimation et de validation. Dans un premier temps, nous étudions les propriétés asymptotiques de l'estimateur du quasi-maximum de vraisemblance et de l'estimateur des moindres carrés. La matrice de variance asymptotique de ces estimateurs est d'une forme "sandwich", et peut être très différente de la variance asymptotique obtenue dans le cas fort. Ensuite, nous accordons une attention particulière aux problèmes de validation. Dans un premier temps, en proposant des versions modifiées des tests de Wald, du multiplicateur de Lagrange et du rapport de vraisemblance pour tester des restrictions linéaires sur les paramètres de modèles ARMA faibles vectoriels. En second, nous nous intéressons aux tests fondés sur les résidus, qui ont pour objet de vérifier que les résidus des modèles estimés sont bien des estimations de bruits blancs. Plus particulièrement, nous nous intéressons aux tests portmanteau, aussi appelés tests d'autocorrélation. Nous montrons que la distribution asymptotique des autocorrelations résiduelles est normalement distribuée avec une matrice de covariance différente du cas fort (c'est-à-dire sous les hypothèses iid sur le bruit). Nous en déduisons le comportement asymptotique des statistiques portmanteau. Dans le cadre standard d'un ARMA fort, il est connu que la distribution asymptotique des tests portmanteau est correctement approximée par un chi-deux. Dans le cas général, nous montrons que cette distribution asymptotique est celle d'une somme pondérée de chi-deux. Cette distribution peut être très différente de l'approximation chi-deux usuelle du cas fort. Nous proposons donc des tests portmanteau modifiés pour tester l'adéquation de modèles ARMA faibles vectoriels. Enfin, nous nous sommes intéressés aux choix des modèles ARMA faibles vectoriels fondé sur la minimisation d'un critère d'information, notamment celui introduit par Akaike (AIC). Avec ce critère, on tente de donner une approximation de la distance (souvent appelée information de Kullback-Leibler) entre la vraie loi des observations (inconnue) et la loi du modèle estimé. Nous verrons que le critère corrigé (AICc) dans le cadre des modèles ARMA faibles vectoriels peut, là aussi, être très différent du cas fort.
