arch.univariate.MIDASHyperbolic

class arch.univariate.MIDASHyperbolic(m: int = 22, asym: bool = False)[source]

MIDAS Hyperbolic ARCH process

Parameters:
m: int = 22

Length of maximum lag to include in the model

asym: bool = False

Flag indicating whether to include an asymmetric term

Examples

>>> from arch.univariate import MIDASHyperbolic

22-lag MIDAS Hyperbolic process

>>> harch = MIDASHyperbolic()

Longer 66-period lag

>>> harch = MIDASHyperbolic(m=66)

Asymmetric MIDAS Hyperbolic process

>>> harch = MIDASHyperbolic(asym=True)

Notes

In a MIDAS Hyperbolic process, the variance evolves according to

\[\sigma_{t}^{2}=\omega+ \sum_{i=1}^{m}\left(\alpha+\gamma I\left[\epsilon_{t-j}<0\right]\right) \phi_{i}(\theta)\epsilon_{t-i}^{2}\]

where

\[\phi_{i}(\theta) \propto \Gamma(i+\theta)/(\Gamma(i+1)\Gamma(\theta))\]

where \(\Gamma\) is the gamma function. \(\{\phi_i(\theta)\}\) is normalized so that \(\sum \phi_i(\theta)=1\)
