Objective: To determine if there was a difference in the volatility characteristics of seizure and non-seizure onset channels in the intracranial electroencephalogram (EEG) in a patient with temporal lobe epilepsy. Methods: The half-life of volatility for the different EEG channels was determined using Autoregressive Moving Average–Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroscedasticity (ARMA–GARCH) models; confidence intervals were constructed using the delta method and an asymptotic method for comparing the half-lives. Results: Clinically determined seizure onsets occurred over strip electrodes named RAST (Right Anterior Subtemporal) and RMST (Right Mid Subtemporal), at locations 2, 3 and 4, on the strip electrodes. The half-lives of volatility for two of the three seizure channels, RAST3 and RAST4, were found to be significantly lower the rest of the channels for six one-minute EEG segments prior to seizure onset and nine one-minute EEG segments of an awake state. The half-lives of volatility for RAST3 and RAST4 were not significantly different to the non-seizure channels for ten one-minute segments of sleep and ten one-minute segments of sleep-to-awake states. The estimates for the half-lives were consistent for randomly selected one-minute EEG segments. Conclusions: The use of GARCH models may be a useful tool in determining hidden properties in epileptiform EEGs that may lead to better understanding of the seizure generating process.

Abstract. The stock price index is the information the public needs to know the development of stock price movements. Stock price forecasting will provide a better basis for planning and decision making. The forecasting model that is often used to model financial and economic data is the Autoregressive Moving Average (ARMA). However, this model can only be used for data with the assumption of stationarity to variance (homoscedasticity), therefore an additional model is needed that can model data with heteroscedasticity conditions, namely the Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroscedasticity (GARCH) model. This study uses data partitioning in pre-pandemic conditions and during the pandemic, Insample data with pre-pandemic conditions and insample data during pandemic conditions. Based on the research results, the GARCH model (1,1) was obtained with the conditions before the pandemic and GARCH (1,2) during the pandemic condition. The forecasting model obtained has met the eligibility requirements of the GARCH model. If the forecasting model fulfills the eligibility requirements, then MAPE calculations are performed to see the accuracy of the forecasting model. And obtained MAPE in the conditions before the pandemic and during the pandemic in the very good category. Abstrak. Indeks harga saham merupakan informasi yang diperlukan masyarakat untuk mengetahui perkembangan pergerakan harga saham. Peramalan harga saham akan memberikan dasar yang lebih baik bagi perencanaan dan pengambilan keputusan. Model peramalan yang sering digunakan untuk memodelkan data keuangan dan ekonomi adalah Autoregrresive Moving Average (ARMA). Namun model tersebut hanya dapat digunakan untuk data dengan asumsi stasioneritas terhadap varian (homoskedastisitas), oleh karena itu diperlukan suatu model tambahan yang bisa memodelkan data dengan kondisi heteroskedastisitas, yaitu model Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroscedastisity (GARCH). Penelitian ini menggunakan partisi data pada kondisi sebelum pandemi dan saat pandemi berlangsung data Insample dengan kondisi sebelum pandemi dan insample pada kondisi pandemi. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian, maka didapat model GARCH (1,1) dengan kondisi sebelum pandemi dan GARCH (1,2) saat kondisi pandemi. Model peramalan yang didapat sudah memenuhi syarat kelayakan model GARCH. Apabila model peramalan terpenuhi syarat kelayakannya maka dilakukan perhitungan MAPE untuk melihat keakuratan model peramalannya. Dan diperoleh MAPE pada kondisi sebelum pandemi dan saat pandemi dengan kategori sangat baik.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to empirically examine the volatility and return spillover between exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and their respective benchmark indices in India. The paper uses time series data which consist of equity ETF and respective index returns. Design/methodology/approach The study uses autoregressive moving average–generalized autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity and autoregressive moving average–exponential generalized autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity models. The study uses data from the inception date of each ETF to December 2016. Findings The findings of the paper confirm that there is unidirectional return spillover from the benchmark index to ETF returns in most of the ETFs. Furthermore, ETF and benchmark index return have volatility persistence and show the presence of asymmetric volatility wherein a negative news has more influence on volatility compared to a positive news. Finally, unlike unidirectional return spillover, there is a bidirectional volatility spillover between ETF and benchmark index return. Practical implications The study has several practical implications for investors and regulators. A positive daily mean return over a fairly long period of time indicates that the passive equity ETFs can be a viable long-term investment option for ordinary investors. A bidirectional volatility spillover between the ETFs and benchmark index returns calls for the attention of the market regulators to examine the reasons for the same. Originality/value ETFs have seen fast growth in the Indian market in recent years. The present study considers the longest period data possible.

<p>This paper identifies an autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA (1,1,1)) model that can be used to model inflation measured by the consumer price index (CPI) for Botswana. The paper proceeds to improve the model by incorporating the generalized autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity (ARCH/GARCH) model that takes into consideration volatility in the series. Ultimately, CPI is forecast using the two models, ARIMA (1, 1, 1) and ARIMA (1, 1, 1) + GARCH (1, 2) and compared with the actual CPI. Both models perform well in terms of forecasting as their 95 percent confidence intervals cover the actual CPI. Marginal differences that favour the inclusion of the ARCH/GARCH components were observed when testing for normality among error terms. The paper also reveals that volatility for Botswana’s CPI is low as shown by small values of ARCH/GARCH components.</p>

Abstrak. Data return saham adalah salah satu data deret waktu. Jika ingin melakukanpemodelan return, maka dapat dilakukan pemodelan deret waktu. Model rataan returnmenggunakan model Autoregressive Moving Average (ARMA). Sedangkan untuk memodelkanragam digunakan model Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroscedasticity(GARCH). Setelah melakukan beberapa tahapan diperoleh model ARMA(1,0) danGARCH(1,1) sebagai model terbaik untuk data return saham Bank Central Asia. Sedangkanmodel terbaik untuk data return saham Bank Mandiri adalah model ARMA(0,1)dan GARCH(1,1). Model yang diperoleh digunakan untuk melakukan peramalan returndan volatilitas dalam pengukuran resiko. Salah satu alat ukur yang digunakan untukmengukur resiko adalah Value at Risk. Dari perhitungan resiko untuk kedua bank diperolehbahwa resiko maksimum Bank Mandiri lebih besar dari resiko maksimum BankCentral Asia.

This paper reviews relatively new developed techniques for machine health prognostics system. The prognostics assessment of machines is an important consideration for determining the remaining useful life (RUL) of machine components and prediction of future state of machines. The developed system has employed several approaches of machine health prognostics strategy such as data-driven, physical-based, and probability-based methods. The method of solution implemented artificial intelligence techniques including support vector machine (SVM), relevance vector machine (RVM), Dempster-Shafer theory, decision tree, particle filter, and autoregressive moving average/ generalized autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity (ARMA/GARCH). Case studies of machine health prognostics are also presented to show the plausibility of the developed systems. Finally, this paper summarizes the research finding and directions of machine health prognostics system.

In this paper, we compare the predictions on the market liquidity in crypto and fiat currencies between two traditional time series methods, the autoregressive moving average (ARMA) and the generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (GARCH), and the machine learning algorithm called the k-nearest neighbor (KNN) approach. We measure market liquidity as the log rates of bid-ask spreads in a sample of three cryptocurrencies (Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Ripple) and 16 major fiat currencies from 9 February 2018 to 8 February 2019. We find that the KNN approach is better suited for capturing the market liquidity in a cryptocurrency in the short-term than the ARMA and GARCH models maybe due to the complexity of the microstructure of the market. Considering traditional time series models, we find that ARMA models perform well when estimating the liquidity of fiat currencies in developed markets, whereas GARCH models do the same for fiat currencies in emerging markets. Nevertheless, our results show that the KNN approach can better predict the log rates of the bid-ask spreads of crypto and fiat currencies than ARMA and GARCH models.
