Testing and Modeling Multivariate Threshold Models
Abstract
Threshold autoregressive models in which the process is piecewise linear in the threshold space have received much attention in recent years. In this article I use predictive residuals to construct a test statistic for detecting threshold nonlinearity in a vector time series and propose a procedure for building a multivariate threshold model. The thresholds and the model are selected jointly based on the Akaike information criterion. The finite-sample performance of the proposed test is studied by simulation. The modeling procedure is then used to study arbitrage in security markets and results in a threshold cointegration between logarithms of future contracts and spot prices of a security after adjusting for the cost of carrying the contracts. In this particular application, thresholds are determined in part by the transaction costs. I also apply the proposed procedure to U.S. monthly interest rates and two river flow series of Iceland.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
