Flexible model comparison of unobserved components models using particle Gibbs with ancestor sampling

Author

  • Nonejad, Nima
Abstract
In this paper, we show that particle Gibbs with ancestor sampling (PG-AS) provides a unified and flexible framework for estimation and model comparison of unobserved components models with time-varying volatility effects, which are widely used in inflation rate modeling.
