Generalized quasi-maximum likelihood inference for periodic conditionally heteroskedastic models

Aknouche, Abdelhakim and Al-Eid, Eid and Demouche, Nacer (2016): Generalized quasi-maximum likelihood inference for periodic conditionally heteroskedastic models.

Abstract

This paper establishes consistency and asymptotic normality of the generalized quasi-maximum likelihood estimate (GQMLE) for a general class of periodic conditionally heteroskedastic time series models (PCH). In this class of models, the volatility is expressed as a measurable function of the infinite past of the observed process with periodically time-varying parameters, while the innovation of the model is an independent and periodically distributed sequence. In contrast with the aperiodic case, the proposed GQMLE is rather based on S instrumental density functions where S is the period of the model while the corresponding asymptotic variance is in a "sandwich" form. Application to the periodic GARCH and the periodic asymmetric power GARCH model is given. Moreover, we discuss how to apply the GQMLE to the prediction of power problem in a one-step framework and to PCH models with complex periodic patterns such as high frequency seasonality and non-integer seasonality.
