In this paper, a local 𝑀-estimation for the conditional variance function in heteroscedastic regression models under stationary α-mixing dependent samples is developed. The local 𝑀-estimator is ...

We propose a new combined semiparametric estimator, which incorporates the parametric and nonparametric estimators of the conditional variance in a multiplicative way. We derive the asymptotic bias, ...

There are several approaches to dealing with heteroscedasticity. If the error variance at different times is known, weighted regression is a good method. If, as is ...

The exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) estimator is widely used to forecast the conditional volatility of short-horizon asset returns. The EWMA estimator is appropriate when returns are ...
