Specifying Smooth Transition Regression Models in the Presence of Conditional Heteroskedasticity of Unknown Form [PDF]
The specification of Smooth Transition Regression models consists of a sequence of tests, which are typically based on the assumption of i.i.d. errors. In this paper we examine the impact of conditional heteroskedasticity and investigate the performance ...

Adaptive Estimation of Autoregressive Models with Time-Varying Variances [PDF]
Stable autoregressive models of known finite order are considered with martingale differences errors scaled by an unknown nonparametric time-varying function generating heterogeneity.

Bayesian estimation in generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity models [PDF]
Esta tesis doctoral nace con el propósito de entender, analizar y sobre todo modelizar el comportamiento estadístico de las series financieras. En este sentido, se puede afirmar que los modelos que mejor recogen las especiales características de estas series son los modelos de heterocedasticidad condicionada en tiempo discreto,si los intervalos de ...
