Abstract

Kernel machine learning is gaining a lot of popularities in analyzing large or high dimensional nonlinear data. We use this technique to estimate a GARCH model for predicting the conditional volatility of stock market returns. GARCH models are usually estimated using maximum likelihood (ML) procedures, assuming that the data are normally distributed. In this paper, we show that GARCH models can be estimated using kernel machine learning and that kernel machine has a higher predicting ability than ML methods and support vector machine, when estimating volatility of financial time series data with fat tail.

커널기계 기법은 최근 대용량 또는 고차원 비선형 자료를 분석하는 방법으로 인기를 많이 얻고 있다. 본 논문에서는 주식시장 수익률의 조건부 변동성을 예측하기 위한 일반화 이분산자기회귀모형을 추정하기 위해 커널기계 기법을 사용한다. 일반화 이분산자기회귀모형은 자료가 정규분포를 따른다고 가정한 후 주로 최대우도법을 사용하여 추정된다. 본 논문에서는 꼬리가 두꺼운 분포를 갖는 금융시계열자료의 변동성을 추정할 때 커널기계 기법이 최대우도법과 서포트벡터기계 보다 더 정확한 예측능력을 가진다는 것을 보이고자 한다.
