Enhanced bayesian neural networks for macroeconomics and finance

N Hauzenberger, F Huber, K Klieber… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2022 - arxiv.org
We develop Bayesian neural networks (BNNs) that permit to model generic nonlinearities
and time variation for (possibly large sets of) macroeconomic and financial variables. From a …

BVARs and Stochastic Volatility

J Chan - arXiv preprint arXiv:2310.14438, 2023 - arxiv.org
Bayesian vector autoregressions (BVARs) are the workhorse in macroeconomic forecasting.
Research in the last decade has established the importance of allowing time-varying …

[PDF][PDF] Bayesian nonparametric methods for macroeconomic forecasting

M Marcellino, M Pfarrhofer - Handbook of Macroeconomic …, 2024 - repec.unibocconi.it
Predicting the future is notoriously difficult, even more so during crises when the realizations
of economic variables are far from their average. In fact, econometric models are typically …

[PDF][PDF] Gaussian process-based spatio-temporal predictor

B Varga - Acta Polytechnica Hungarica, 2022 - epa.niif.hu
This paper presents a grid-based algorithm using Gaussian Processes to predict outputs
using spatially and temporally dependent data. First, independent Gaussian Processes are …

Nowcasting with mixed frequency data using Gaussian processes

N Hauzenberger, M Marcellino, M Pfarrhofer… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2024 - arxiv.org
We propose and discuss Bayesian machine learning methods for mixed data sampling
(MIDAS) regressions. This involves handling frequency mismatches with restricted and …

Theory coherent shrinkage of Time-Varying Parameters in VARs

A Renzetti - arXiv preprint arXiv:2311.11858, 2023 - arxiv.org
Time-Varying Parameters Vector Autoregressive (TVP-VAR) models are frequently used in
economics to capture evolving relationships among the macroeconomic variables. However …

Estimating Posterior Sensitivities with Application to Structural Analysis of Bayesian Vector Autoregressions

L Jacobi, D Zhu, M Joshi - Journal of Business & Economic …, 2024 - Taylor & Francis
The inherent feature of Bayesian empirical analysis is the dependence of posterior inference
on prior parameters, which researchers typically specify. However, quantifying the …
