Exact Smooth Term-Structure Estimation
We present a non-parametric method to estimate the discount curve from market quotes based on the Moore-Penrose pseudoinverse. The discount curve reproduces the market quotes perfectly, has maximal smoothness, and is given in closed-form. The method is easy to implement and requires only basic linear algebra operations. We provide a full theoretical framework as well as several practical applications.

Exact Schur-Sylvester Dimensionality Reductions for Non-Smooth Stochastic Complexity and Manifold Sampling
The exact computation of the Normalized Maximum Likelihood (NML) codelength for regular non-smooth estimators (e.g., Lasso) has been historically limited by the cubic scaling walls of manifold-constrained projection and …
A Pathwise Coordinate Descent Algorithm for LASSO Penalized Quantile Regression
$\ell_1$ penalized quantile regression is used in many fields as an alternative to penalized least squares regressions for high-dimensional data analysis. Existing algorithms for penalized quantile regression either use …

Variable projection solves structured optimization problems by completely minimizing over a subset of the variables while iterating over the remaining variables. Over the last 30 years, the technique has been widely used…
Quasi Maximum Likelihood Estimation of High-Dimensional Factor Models: A Critical Review
We review Quasi Maximum Likelihood estimation of factor models for high-dimensional panels of time series. We consider two cases: (1) estimation when no dynamic model for the factors is specified (Bai and Li, 2012, 2016)…
