Recursive estimation of models relating discrete-valued variables to continuous-valued ones applied to trading with futures
Svoboda, Miroslav ; Kárný, Miroslav (advisor) ; Hurt, Jan (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with recursive estimation of a dependence of the models with discrete variables on variables that are either discretely or continuously distributed. To this purpose Bayes formula, described in the first chapter, is used, to which an additional assumption of conditional independence is added so that it can be used dynamically. The second chapter describes an approximation algorithm, which is used for recursive approximation of the density of random variable that has been estimated by the Bayesian equation. The third chapter deals with the application of the whole model on a special form of logistic regression. Results are shown on the examples using simulated data. At last, the model along with approximation algorithm is applied on a trading with futures. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
Iterated Multi-Step Forecasting with Model Coefficients Changing Across Iterations
Franta, Michal
Iterated multi-step forecasts are usually constructed assuming the same model in each forecasting iteration. In this paper, the model coefficients are allowed to change across forecasting iterations according to the in-sample prediction performance at a particular forecasting horizon. The technique can thus be viewed as a combination of iterated and direct forecasting. The superior point and density forecasting performance of this approach is demonstrated on a standard medium-scale vector autoregression employing variables used in the Smets and Wouters (2007) model of the US economy. The estimation of the model and forecasting are carried out in a Bayesian way on data covering the period 1959Q1–2016Q1.
