英文摘要:
In econometrics and finance, the vector error correction model (VECM) is an important time series model for cointegration analysis, which is used to estimate the long-run equilibrium variable relationships. The traditional analysis and estimation methodologies assume the underlying Gaussian distribution but, in practice, heavy-tailed data and outliers can lead to the inapplicability of these methods. In this paper, we propose a robust model estimation method based on the Cauchy distribution to tackle this issue. In addition, sparse cointegration relations are considered to realize feature selection and dimension reduction. An efficient algorithm based on the majorization-minimization (MM) method is applied to solve the proposed nonconvex problem. The performance of this algorithm is shown through numerical simulations.

中文摘要:
在计量经济学和金融学中,向量误差修正模型(VECM)是协整分析的重要时间序列模型,用于估计长期均衡变量关系。传统的分析和估计方法假定基本的高斯分布,但在实践中,重尾数据和异常值可能导致这些方法不适用。本文提出了一种基于柯西分布的鲁棒模型估计方法来解决这一问题。此外,考虑稀疏协整关系实现特征选择和降维。提出了一种基于优化极小化(MM)方法的高效算法来解决所提出的非凸问题。数值仿真结果表明了该算法的性能。
