III EcoSta2017 Dear Colleagues, It is a great pleasure to welcome you to the 1st International Conference on Econometrics and Statistics (EcoSta 2017). The Conference is co-organized by the Working Group on Computational and Methodological Statistics (CMStatistics), the Network of Computational and Financial Econometrics (CFENetwork), and the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) Business School. The aim is for the conference to become a leading meeting in econometrics, statistics and their applications. The EcoSta 2017 consists of almost 150 sessions, four keynote talks, four invited sessions, and about 600 presen- tations. There are over 650 participants. This is quite impressive for a first edition of a conference. It is indeed promising that the EcoSta conference will become a successful medium for the dissemination of high quality re- search in Econometrics and Statistics, and facilitate networking. The Co-chairs observed that the collective effort of the scientific program committee, session organizers, and local organizing committee has produced a programme that spans all the areas of econometrics and statistics. The HKUST provides excellent facilities and a fantastic environment with an astonishing scenery on the outskirts of Hong Kong. The local host, volunteers, and sponsoring universities have substantially contributed through their effort to the successful organization of the conference. We thank them all for their support. Particularly we express our sincere appreciation to the host and main sponsor, the HKUST Business School. It is hoped that the quality of both the scientific programme and the HKUST will provide the participants with a productive, stimulating conference, and an enjoyable stay in Honk Kong. The Elsevier journals of Econometrics and Statistics (EcoSta) and Computational Statistics & Data Analysis (CSDA) are associated with CFEnetwork, CMStatistics, and the EcoSta 2017 conference. The participants are encouraged to submit their papers to special or regular peer-reviewed issues of EcoSta and CSDA, and to join the networks. Finally, we are happy to announce that the 2nd International Conference on Econometrics and Statistics (EcoSta 2018) will take place at the City University of Hong Kong from Tuesday 19 to Thursday 21 of June 2018.

  • Coauthorship and Citation Networks for Statisticians
    Submitted to the Annals of Applied Statistics arXiv: arXiv:0000.0000 COAUTHORSHIP AND CITATION NETWORKS FOR STATISTICIANS By Pengsheng Jiy and Jiashun Jinz University of Georgiay and Carnegie Mellon Universityz We have collected and cleaned two network data sets: Coauthor- ship and Citation networks for statisticians. The data sets are based on all research papers published in four of the top journals in statis- tics from 2003 to the first half of 2012. We analyze the data sets from many different perspectives, focusing on (a) centrality, (b) commu- nity structures, and (c) productivity, patterns and trends. For (a), we have identified the most prolific/collaborative/highly cited authors. We have also identified a handful of \hot" papers, suggesting \Variable Selection" as one of the \hot" areas. For (b), we have identified about 15 meaningful communities or research groups, including large-size ones such as \Spatial Statis- tics", \Large-Scale Multiple Testing", \Variable Selection" as well as small-size ones such as \Dimensional Reduction", \Objective Bayes", \Quantile Regression", and \Theoretical Machine Learning". For (c), we find that over the 10-year period, both the average number of papers per author and the fraction of self citations have been decreasing, but the proportion of distant citations has been increasing. These suggest that the statistics community has become increasingly more collaborative, competitive, and globalized. Our findings shed light on research habits, trends, and topological patterns of statisticians. The data sets provide a fertile ground for future researches on or related to social networks of statisticians. 1. Introduction. It is frequently of interest to identify \hot" areas and key authors in a scientific community, and to understand the research habits, trends, and topological patterns of the researchers.

  • Semimartingale Properties of a Generalized Fractional Brownian Motion and Its Mixtures with Applications in finance
    Semimartingale properties of a generalized fractional Brownian motion and its mixtures with applications in finance TOMOYUKI ICHIBA, GUODONG PANG, AND MURAD S. TAQQU ABSTRACT. We study the semimartingale properties for the generalized fractional Brownian motion (GFBM) introduced by Pang and Taqqu (2019) and discuss the applications of the GFBM and its mixtures to financial models, including stock price and rough volatility. The GFBM is self-similar and has non-stationary increments, whose Hurst index H 2 (0; 1) is determined by two parameters. We identify the region of these two parameter values where the GFBM is a semimartingale. Specifically, in one region resulting in H 2 (1=2; 1), it is in fact a process of finite variation and differentiable, and in another region also resulting in H 2 (1=2; 1) it is not a semimartingale. For regions resulting in H 2 (0; 1=2] except the Brownian motion case, the GFBM is also not a semimartingale. We also establish p-variation results of the GFBM, which are used to provide an alternative proof of the non-semimartingale property when H < 1=2. We then study the semimartingale properties of the mixed process made up of an independent Brownian motion and a GFBM with a Hurst parameter H 2 (1=2; 1), and derive the associated equivalent Brownian measure. We use the GFBM and its mixture with a BM to study financial asset models. The first application involves stock price models with long range dependence that generalize those using shot noise processes and FBMs. When the GFBM is a process of finite variation (resulting in H 2 (1=2; 1)), the mixed GFBM process as a stock price model is a Brownian motion with a random drift of finite variation.

  • Lecture 19 Semimartingales
    Lecture 19:Semimartingales 1 of 10 Course: Theory of Probability II Term: Spring 2015 Instructor: Gordan Zitkovic Lecture 19 Semimartingales Continuous local martingales While tailor-made for the L2-theory of stochastic integration, martin- 2,c gales in M0 do not constitute a large enough class to be ultimately useful in stochastic analysis. It turns out that even the class of all mar- tingales is too small. When we restrict ourselves to processes with continuous paths, a naturally stable family turns out to be the class of so-called local martingales. Definition 19.1 (Continuous local martingales). A continuous adapted stochastic process fMtgt2[0,¥) is called a continuous local martingale if there exists a sequence ftngn2N of stopping times such that 1. t1 ≤ t2 ≤ . and tn ! ¥, a.s., and tn 2. fMt gt2[0,¥) is a uniformly integrable martingale for each n 2 N. In that case, the sequence ftngn2N is called the localizing sequence for (or is said to reduce) fMtgt2[0,¥). The set of all continuous local loc,c martingales M with M0 = 0 is denoted by M0 . Remark 19.2. 1. There is a nice theory of local martingales which are not neces- sarily continuous (RCLL), but, in these notes, we will focus solely on the continuous case. In particular, a “martingale” or a “local martingale” will always be assumed to be continuous. 2. While we will only consider local martingales with M0 = 0 in these notes, this is assumption is not standard, so we don’t put it into the definition of a local martingale. tn 3.

N. Ciprian (Necula, C.

We propose a formula by adapting the non-fractional Black-Scholes model using a λH factor to evaluate the european option. The price of the option at time t 2]0; T[ depends on λH(T − t), and the cost of the action S t, but not only from t − T as in the classical model. At the end, we propose the formula giving the implied volatility of sensitivities of the option and indicators of the financial market.

  • Robust High Dimensional Factor Models with Applications to Statistical Machine Learning∗
    Robust high dimensional factor models with applications to statistical machine learning∗ Jianqing Fanyz, Kaizheng Wangy, Yiqiao Zhongy, Ziwei Zhuy August 14, 2018 Abstract Factor models are a class of powerful statistical models that have been widely used to deal with dependent measurements that arise frequently from various applications from genomics and neuroscience to economics and finance. As data are collected at an ever-growing scale, statistical machine learning faces some new challenges: high dimensionality, strong dependence among observed variables, heavy-tailed variables and heterogeneity. High-dimensional robust factor analysis serves as a powerful toolkit to conquer these challenges. This paper gives a selective overview on recent advance on high-dimensional factor models and their applications to statistics including Factor-Adjusted Robust Model selection (FarmSe- lect) and Factor-Adjusted Robust Multiple testing (FarmTest). We show that classical methods, especially principal component analysis (PCA), can be tailored to many new problems and pro- vide powerful tools for statistical estimation and inference. We highlight PCA and its connec- tions to matrix perturbation theory, robust statistics, random projection, false discovery rate, etc., and illustrate through several applications how insights from these fields yield solutions to modern challenges. We also present far-reaching connections between factor models and popular statistical learning problems, including network analysis and low-rank matrix recovery. Key Words: Factor model, PCA, covariance estimation, perturbation bounds, robustness, random sketch, FarmSelect, FarmTest 1 Introduction In modern data analytics, dependence across high-dimensional outcomes or measurements is ubiq- uitous. For example, stocks within the same industry exhibit significantly correlated returns, hous- ing prices of a country depend on various economic factors, gene expressions can be stimulated arXiv:1808.03889v1 [stat.ME] 12 Aug 2018 by cytokines.
