Study Notes
- Time series analysis examines data to identify patterns, trends, or relationships.
- Autocorrelation and partial autocorrelation are used to analyze time series data.
- Autoregressive models use past observations to predict future observations.
- AIC and BIC are used to select the best model among a set of candidates.
- Independent variables are used to explain or predict the value of a dependent variable.
- Finite distributed lag models include lags of independent variables.
- Structural breaks in data can affect multiple lags of a variable.
- Interim and total multipliers are used to quantify the effect of a change in an independent variable.
- ARDL models combine autoregressive and distributed lag models.
- Long-term effects in ARDL models represent the impact on a dependent variable of a permanent change in an independent variable.
- ARDL model combines autoregressive and distributed lag models.
- Long-term effect of ARDL represents the impact of a permanent change in X on Y.
- Short-term effects in ARDL are less straightforward due to the interaction of lags of Y and X.
- Error correction format can help separate and interpret long-run and short-run effects in ARDL.
- MA model represents the relationship between a variable and past errors or residuals.
- Autocorrelation of MA model abruptly stops after q terms.
- ARMA model combines AR and MA models to capture complex patterns and dependencies.
- Pseudo-out-of-sample forecasting is used to estimate a model's performance.
- Granger causality tests whether lagged values of one variable can help predict another variable.
- Non-stationary time series can lead to spurious regressions and should be transformed using techniques like differencing or detrending.
- ADF test is used to test for stationarity in time series data.
- The number of lags to include in the ADF test depends on the autoregressive order of the time series.
- Detrending and differencing are solutions to non-stationarity.
- Dummy variables are used to model breaks in the data.
- The Chow breakpoint test is used when the breakpoint is known in advance.
- The QLR test is used when the breakpoint is unknown.
- ARCH models are used to model the time-varying volatility in time series data.
- GARCH models are an extension of ARCH models that account for both past errors and past variances in modeling current variance.
- GARCH(p,q) models have autoregressive and moving average components.
- The variance of each observation in an autoregressive conditionally heteroskedastic series is determined by the variance of past observations and the squared residual of past observations.
