Nonparametric conditional variance and error density estimation in regression models with dependent errors and predictors [PDF]
: This paper considers nonparametric regression models with long memory errors and predictors. Unlike in weak dependence situations, we show that the estimation of the conditional mean has influence on the estimation of both, the conditional variance and

Direction-of-Change Forecasts Based on Conditional Variance, Skewness and Kurtosis Dynamics: International Evidence [PDF]
Recent theoretical work has revealed a direct connection between asset return volatility forecastability and asset return sign forecastability. This suggests that the pervasive volatility forecastability in equity returns could, via induced sign ...

Estimation of the Conditional Variance - Covariance Matrix of Returns Using the Intraday Range [PDF]
This paper proposes a hybrid multivariate exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) estimator of the variance-covariance matrix of returns. The proposed estimator employs a range-based EWMA specification to estimate the conditional variances of ...

Changes in the Unconditional Variance and Autoregressive Conditional Heteroscedasticity
This paper argues that a simple white noise process with one jump in its unconditional variance may give rise to the presence of ARCH effects, and, surprisingly, this may occur in determinate circumstances even when the jump is very brief.

On the estimation of a monotone conditional variance in nonparametric regression [PDF]
A monotone estimate of the conditional variance function in a heteroscedastic, nonparametric regression model is proposed. The method is based on the application of a kernel density estimate to an unconstrained estimate of the variance function and yields an estimate of the inverse variance function. The final monotone estimate of the variance function

An analysis of conditional mean-variance portfolio performance using hierarchical clustering
This paper studies portfolio optimization through improvements of ex-ante conditional covariance estimates. We use the cross-section of stock returns over a 52-year sample to analyze trading performance by implementing the machine learning algorithm of ...

Dependence Measuring from Conditional Variances
Abstract A conditional variance is an indicator of the level of independence between two random variables. We exploit this intuitive relationship and define a measure v which is almost a measure of mutual complete dependence. Unsurprisingly, the measure attains its minimum value for many pairs of non-independent ran- dom variables ...

Models with multiplicative decomposition of conditional variances and correlations [PDF]
Univariate and multivariate GARCH type models with multiplicative decomposition of the variance to short and long run components are surveyed. The latter component can be either deterministic or stochastic. Examples of both types are studied.
