6 Hierarchical Archimedean Copulae 2-1 Copula For a distribution function F with marginals F X1..., F Xd. There exists a copula C : [0, 1] d [0, 1], such that F (x 1,..., x d ) = C{F X1 (x 1 ),..., F Xd (x d )} (1) for all x i R, i = 1,..., d. If F X1,..., F Xd are cts, then C is unique. If C is a copula and F X1,..., F Xd are cdfs, then the function F dened in (1) is a joint cdf with marginals F X1,..., F Xd.

7 Hierarchical Archimedean Copulae 2-2 Archimedean Copulae Multivariate Archimedean copula C : [0, 1] d [0, 1] dened as C(u 1,..., u d ) = φ{φ 1 (u 1 ) + + φ 1 (u d )}, (2) where φ : [0, ) [0, 1] is continuous and strictly decreasing with φ(0) = 1, φ( ) = 0 and φ 1 its pseudo-inverse. Example φ Gumbel (u, θ) = exp{ u 1/θ }, where 1 θ < φ Clayton (u, θ) = (θu + 1) 1/θ, where θ [ 1, )\{0} Disadvantages: too restrictive, single parameter, exchangeable

18 Local Parametric Modeling by HAC 3-2 Adaptive Copula Estimation adaptively estimate largest interval where homogeneity hypothesis is accepted Local Change Point detection (LCP): sequentially test θ t, s t are constants (i.e. θ t = θ, s t = s) within some interval I (local parametric assumption).

19 Local Parametric Modeling by HAC 3-3 Oracle choice: largest interval I = [t 0 m k, t 0 ] where small modelling bias condition (SMB) I (s, θ) = t I K{C( ; s t, θ t ), C( ; s, θ)}. holds for some 0. m k is the ideal scale, (s, θ) is ideally estimated from I = [t 0 m k, t 0 ] and K(, ) is the Kullback-Leibler divergence K{C( ; s t, θ t ), C( ; s, θ)} = IE st,θ t log c( ; s t, θ t ) c( ; s, θ)

20 Local Parametric Modeling by HAC 3-4 Under the SMB condition on I k and assuming that max k k IE s,θ L( s k, θ k ) L(s, θ) r R r (s, θ), we obtain { IE st,θ t log 1 + L( s k, θ k) } L(s, θ) r 1 +, R r (s, θ) { IE st,θ t log 1 + L( s k, θ k) L(ŝ k, θ k) } r ρ +, R r (s, θ) where â I is an adaptive estimator on I and ã I is any other parametric estimator on I.

21 Local Parametric Modeling by HAC 3-5 Local Change Point Detection 1. dene family of nested intervals I 0 I 1 I 2... I K = I K+1 with length m k as I k = [t 0 m k, t 0 ] 2. dene T k = [t 0 m k, t 0 m k 1 ] t 0 m k+1 t 0 m k t 0 m k 1 t 0 T k+1 T k I k 1 I k I k+1

22 Local Parametric Modeling by HAC 3-6 Local Change Point Detection 1. test homogeneity H 0,k against the change point alternative in T k using I k+1 2. if no change points in T k, accept I k. Take T k+1 and repeat previous step until H 0,k is rejected or largest possible interval I K is accepted 3. if H 0,k is rejected in T k, homogeneity interval is the last accepted Î = I k 1 4. if largest possible interval I K is accepted Î = I K

23 Local Parametric Modeling by HAC 3-7 Test of homogeneity Interval I = [t 0 m, t 0 ], T I H 0 : τ T, θ t = θ, s t = s, t J = [τ, t 0 ], t J c = I \ J H 1 : τ T, θ t = θ 1, s t = s 1 ; t J, θ t = θ 2 θ 1 ; s t = s 2 s 1, t J c J c J t 0 m τ t 0 T I

24 Local Parametric Modeling by HAC 3-8 Test of homogeneity Likelihood ratio test statistic for xed change point location: T I,τ = max{l J (θ 1 ) + L J c (θ 2 )} max L I (θ) θ 1,θ 2 θ = ML J + ML J c ML I Test statistic for unknown change point location: Reject H 0 if for a critical value ζ I T I = max τ T I T I,τ T I > ζ I

25 Local Parametric Modeling by HAC 3-9 Selection of I k and ζ k set of numbers m k dening the length of I k and T k are in the form of a geometric grid m k = [m 0 c k ] for k = 1, 2,..., K, m 0 {20, 40}, c = 1.25 and K = 10, where [x] means the integer part of x I k = [t 0 m k, t 0 ] and T k = [t 0 m k, t 0 m k 1 ] for k = 1, 2,..., K (Mystery Parameters)

26 Simulation Study 4-1 Sequential choice of ζ k after k steps are two cases: change point at some step l k and no change points. let B l be the event meaning the rejection at step l B l = {T 1 ζ 1,..., T l 1 ζ l 1, T l > ζ l }, and (ŝ k, θ k ) = ( s l 1, θ l 1 ) on B l for l = 1,..., k. we nd sequentially such a minimal value of ζ l that ensures following inequality max k=l,...,k IE s,θ L( s k, θ k ) L( s l 1, θ l 1 ) r I(B l ) ρr r (s, θ k ) K 1
