2 The distributions of hange points in long memory proesses Guan Yu Zheng Supervisors: Maro Reale and Bill Rea Department of Mathematis and Statistis University of Canterbury New Zealand February 9, 27 Abstrat In this paper we present the properties of empirial distributions of different statistis (e.g. standard deviation and number of breaks) related to the presene of strutural breaks in simulated Frational Gaussian Noise series with various Hurst parameters. Strutural Breaks are deteted with Atheoretial Regression Trees, a strutural break identifiation method. The simulation results were applied to four ase studies to hek whether a Regime Swithing or Frational Gaussian Noise model is more adequate. Keywords: Long-range dependene, strong dependene, global dependene, Hurst phenomena. Introdution The onept of long memory was introdued by Mandelbrot in It also is known as long-range dependeny, strong dependene or Hurst phenomenon. Both of statisti and eonomi literatures have made great effort to develop this field of study. Up to - 1 -
3 now, the presene of long memory time series is beoming more and more important in new areas like finane and network ommuniations as well as hydrology, geophysis and limatology. The intention of this paper is to provide a simple approah to test whether a given dataset is better desribed by a long memory model or a regime swithing model The next setions of this paper are organized as follows: setion (2) gives a brief definition of long memory proess and self-similarity. Setion (3) presents overview of Frational Integration (FI), Frational Gaussian Noise (FGN) and Regime Swithing (RS). Setion ( 4) desribes the distributional properties of strutural breaks for different Hurst oeffiients. Setion (5) presents the results of our investigation of self-similarity properties of four real datasets. Setion (6) presents the onlusions. 2 Definition of Long memory and Self-similarity In this setion we introdue the onept of long memory and self-similarity. Then, an illustration is provided of the equivalene of self-similarity and long memory. 2.1 Long memory There are several ways of defining the long memory of a disrete time series formulated both in time and frequeny domain. A simple definition proposed by Baillie [2] was given in eonometri literature and illustrated below. Definition 1 The proess possesses long memory if ll lim 2]PU)I ~ fl---4. ;=-n Equivalently, the spetral density f((jj) of the data will be unbounded at low frequenies. - 2-

Silverberg and Verspagen [3] pointed out that the deay rate of the Autoorrelation Funtion (ACF) in a short memory proess (ARMA) is about exponential with a zero spetral density at the origin. However, the ACF of a long memory deays at a hyperbolial rate whih is muh slower than the exponential rate found for stationary ARMA proesses. Furthermore, the power of spetrum is ompletely dominated by the low frequeny omponent. And how about trying to first differene the raw dataset, and what hanges an we find? The whole time series is smoothed, and appear more stationary. Even though the ACF deays very quikly, its values still stay at some signifiant level. Furthermore, the power in the origin of periodogram is perished. In other words, there is no power in the origin. There are lear signs that the data is over-differened. - 3-

ACF (above) and Periodogram (Below) of first differened Campito Mountain. The Autoregressive Frational Integrated Moving Average (ARFIMA) model was derived to overome this type of problem. Formula 1 The ARFIMA (p,d,q) model is expressed as t/j(b)t/ % 1 = B(B) 1 Where (e 1 ) is a White Noise with zero mean, and 11d = (1- B)d, where de (,.5), is a differene operator. In this paper, the simplest ARFIMA model, whih is the fational integrated noise (FI) or ARFIMA (O,d,O), is onsidered - 4-
6 Formula 2 The FI(d) model is expressed as t!..dx, =, Its ounter-part for ontinuous time series is the Frational Gaussian Noise (FGN). We would explain it later. The relationship between d and the Hurst oeffiient His: H =.5 + d. 2.2 Self-similarity The onept of self-similar proess was first introdued by Kolmogorov and its definition as presented by Mandelbrot and van Ness [4] is: Definition 2 a stohasti proess (X (t),t 2 ) is self-similar with Index H >, if have the same finite dimensional distribution. His alled Hurst parameter or self-similar parameter with values between and 1. In other words, the stohasti points have the same statistial properties at different periods of time in time series data. 2.3 Connetion between long memory and self-similarity The auto-orrelation funtion an be expressed as 1 p(k) = 2[(k + 1)2H - 2k2H + (k -1)2H], in term of self-similarity. When H =.5, the proess is a White Noise. Interestingly, the orrelations deay at very slow rate and are not summable for Y2 < H < 1. This = 1 implies LP(k) ~ oo; therefore, a self-similar proess with -:::; H < 1 an be k=-= 2 onsidered a long memory proess. 3 Model This paper onsiders two alternative models the Regime Swithing (RS) vs. Frational Integration (FI) or Frational Gaussian Noise (FGN), and they are applied to four ase studies to help identifying whih model is more appropriate to desribe them. The FGN an be defined from definition 2 and below from Mandelbrot and van Ness [4]
7 Definition 3: a stohasti proess (X (t), t 2 ) has stationary inrement, if X(t+)-X()=d X(t)-X(O) The time series plots were given below for illustration. Another point we should notie is that the FGN proess is self-similar if the H parameter is onstant through the series. FGN with H=.5 FGN with H= GOO GOO 8 1 Time Time FGN with H=.8 FGN with H= GOO GOO 8 1 Time Time Figure 3: Four different Frational Gaussian Noise time series plot. The alternative model is a Regime Swithing or strutural break model presented by Ohanissian, Russell and Tsay[5], Granger and Terasvirta [6]. This model ontains stationary sub-time series (stationary ARMA models) with probabilisti hanges on state levels. Its formulation was presented by Chen and Tiao[7] is as follows. - 6-
8 Formula 3: a (disrete) time series y 1 if Where (x,,t;::: ) is loal-stationary ARMA model, (;t,,t > O)E N(O,a 2 ), and p 1 is binary variable with Prob (p, = 1) =a and Prob( (p, = ) = 1-a. In Regime Swithing, the mean levels hange over time aording to the probability of p 1 During the hanges or breaks, the series are stationary and have different statistial properties. Hene, Regime Swithing is not self-similar. Some authors, like Russell, Ohanissian and Tsay [5], laimed that RS an be distinguished from a long memory proess. But the two alternative models are almost observationally equivalent. Hene the two models are diffiult to tell apart. In setion 5, we would provide some distribution tests for the four datasets and we shall try to tell whether a FI/FGN or RS is more appropriate. 4 Properties of simulated Frational Gaussian Noises In this part, nine FGN series with different Hurst parameters (H=.55,.6,.65,.7,.75,.8,.85,.9 and.95) were simulatedlooo times with the statistial pakage fseries[8] in R[9], and were broken into regimes by ART (Cappelli and Reale[lO]). The length of eah series onsisted of 545 sequential points whih is the same as example of the Capito Mountain. Then the empirial distributions of some statistis were derived from evaluating the statistial properties on these regimes. These statistis were number of breaks, regime length, mean level, standard deviation, skewness and kurtosis. Another R pakage MASS was used to estimate the distribution parameters by the Maximum Likelihood approah. 4.1 Number of breaks The number of breaks is an integer value, and its distribution is disrete. The Poisson distribution gave the best approximation and was applied. The Normal distribution was used as an alternative. The shape of the distribution was symmetri when H was larger than.9. Then, it turns to be right-skewed ash beame smaller. Hene, we found that the Poisson distribution fitted well the disttibution for large H values (H2..8)
9 H value Expeted number H value Expeted number of breaks of breaks Table 1: Expeted number of breaks in FGNs. The distribution hanged to exponential-like shape if H was less than.8. As the number of breaks tend to zero, but this also meant that for.5 :=:;; H <.8 it was not a problem to distinguish between long memory and RS. Another point we notied is that the expetation of number of breaks was shrunk as H was lessened. That implies that the FGN proesses beame "stationary" as no breaks were deteted

It did not present well-behaved features. Natural logarithm transformation was used and gave some interesting results. After log-transformation, distribution is less skewed, and it is quite symmetri at.9:::; H < 1. Gamma and Normal distribution were used. The Gamma distribution probably was the better one to apture the hanges in the empirial distribution. However, distribution was atypial at small H value (.5 :::; H <. 8 ). - 9-

12 4.3 Mean levels Differently from the previous two statistis, the empirial distribution of the mean always appears Normal. The entre was zero, and the sample standard deviation beame smaller ash moved from.95 to.55. The Logisti distribution was used as well. It might be a reasonable alternative.

Normal (solid) and Logisti (dash) 4.4 Skewness In term of the sknewness, the empirial distribution showed symmetry through all H values. Its entre shifts from.8 to 1, and the density of point at 1 beomes larger and larger ash beomes smaller. In other words, the skewness is more stable where His small. When H=.55, the skewness was 1. Additionally, densities along the two-sides deayed very quikly. Beause of these features, Logisti and normal distribution worked well where.8:::; H < 1. The Logisti just did a little better than the Normal for this ase.. 11

Disussion In this setion, we applied the results of setion 4 to four ase studies, and drew some useful information to tell whether long memory with stationary inrement or regime swithing is more appropriate. The desription of all datasets was given by Rea et al [11]. In the next paragraphs, we present the distributions of number of breaks and log regime length as they appeared partiular effetive in identifying between the two alternative models. Poisson and gamma distribution were respetively applied. Moreover, Figure 9-12 provided empirial distributions on eah ase, and Figure presented time series and its strutural breaks by ART. The results for the other statistis are available on requests from the author
15 5.1 Nile Minima The estimated Hurst parameter for the Nile Minima was.837 given by the Whittle estimator in fseries. ART returned 1 breaks i.e. 11 regimes in this dataset. The expeted number of breaks in the simulated series for the onesponding H is The probability of having 1 breaks is 11.7 perent whih was almost the highest through all the densities. Hene, this an be onsidered a long memory proess at.95 onfidene level. In term of regime length, the simulation showed the expeted log regime length was 3.64 (38.9). And, log regime length from Nile Minima was 4.33 (76.25). That suppmted the hypothesis that the Nile River followed a FGN proess.

However, the expeted break point was 5.97 given FGN with H=.876. The hane of having 12 was smaller than 1 perent
16 Compared to 6.36 (578) from simulated data, the sample mean of log regime length was slightly smaller (6.2, (491.27)) with a little enor. The Campito Mountain data is onsidered a lass example of a FI proess. However the result based on our simulations suggested the regime swithing was more suited thus supporting the results of Rea et al [ 11].

Whereas the expetation of the number of breaks was only The probability of having 14 breaks was.17. That implies the FGN model poorly performed against the RS. Similarly, the distribution of the long regime length is far from the gamma distribution. Sample average of log regime length was 7.25 (1416), and expeted length from

The data was not FGN. The data was given 8 break points and 9 regimes. For a self-similar long memory proess of this distribution we have approximately The probability of having 8 breaks was just 3 perent. In addition, the sampled log regime length was 8.58 (532) whih was muh larger than 7.33 ( ) from model. Billet al [11] also introdued infrequent hanges on mean through time sales. That strongly suggested Regime swithing would desribe to data better

Conlusion We have proposed a data driven parametri proedure to distinguish between long memory model and RS. The tehnique is to generate FGNs, introdue parametri distributions for eah quantity by breaking series using ART, and ompare to atual data. Four data sets are onsidered and the long memory behavior tests. We found that distributions were easy to derive when Hurst parameter is high enough (usually larger than.8). When Hurst was lower than that point, some other tools needed to form theoretial distribution model. But given the low likelihood of having breaks for.5:::; H <.8, this study provides a useful tool to distinguish between long memory and RS. Three of the four examples exhibit regime swithing property and non-self-similarity
