New Tests of Equal Forecast Accuracy for Factor-Augmented Regressions with Weaker Loadings
We provide the theoretical foundation for the recently proposed tests of equal forecast accuracy and encompassing by Pitarakis (2023a) and Pitarakis (2023b), when the competing forecast specification is that of a factor-augmented regression model, whose loadings are allowed to be homogeneously/heterogeneously weak. This should be of interest for practitioners, as at the moment there is no theory available to justify the use of these simple and powerful tests in such context.

Robust Tests for Factor-Augmented Regressions with an Application to the novel EA-MD Dataset
We present four novel tests of equal predictive accuracy and encompassing for out-of-sample forecasts based on factor-augmented regression. We extend the work of Pitarakis (2023a,b) to develop the inferential theory of p…
Forecast Evaluation in Large Cross-Sections of Realized Volatility
In this paper, we consider the forecast evaluation of realized volatility measures under cross-section dependence using equal predictive accuracy testing procedures. We evaluate the predictive accuracy of the model based…
SensitivityForecasting With Factor-Augmented Quantile Autoregressions: A Model Averaging Approach
This paper considers forecasts of the growth and inflation distributions of the United Kingdom with factor-augmented quantile autoregressions under a model averaging framework. We investigate model combinations across mo…

Traffic forecasting is a fundamental and challenging task in the field of intelligent transportation. Accurate forecasting not only depends on the historical traffic flow information but also needs to consider the influe…
AttributeTraffic PredictionEqual Predictive Ability Tests Based on Panel Data with Applications to OECD and IMF Forecasts
We propose two types of equal predictive ability (EPA) tests with panels to compare the predictions made by two forecasters. The first type, namely $S$-statistics, focuses on the overall EPA hypothesis which states that …
