Genetic Algorithm improves Nelson-Siegel-Svensson model calibration for interest rates.

problem Calibrating the Nelson-Siegel-Svensson model is difficult due to nonlinearity and parameter co-dependence.
method Applied Genetic Algorithm to optimize model parameters.
result Constructs stable interest rate curves and model parameters over time.

A new model explains relative spreads between economies using dynamic Nelson-Siegel and functional regression.

problem Analyzing and predicting relative spreads between economies in fixed income markets.
method State-space functional regression model incorporating dynamic Nelson-Siegel model and kernel PCA.
result The new model outperforms the dynamic Nelson-Siegel model in explaining relative spreads.

Investment strategies derived from commodity futures curves exploit dynamics in price movements.

problem Modeling and predicting the term structure of commodity futures prices.
method Employed the Nelson-Siegel framework to model term structure, and developed investment strategies based on changes in slope and curvature parameters.
result Significant profits generated from systematic strategies based on the change in slope, unrelated to risk factors and robust to transaction costs.

This study models Burundi's bond market yield curve using Nelson-Siegel and Svensson models.

problem Modeling the yield curve of Burundian bond market for financial analytics.
method Collected treasury securities auction reports, computed zero-coupon rates, and applied Nelson-Siegel and Svensson models.
result Nelson-Siegel model is optimal for Burundian yield curve modeling.

Yield curve modeling is an essential problem in finance. In this work, we explore the use of Bayesian statistical methods in conjunction with Nelson-Siegel model. We present the hierarchical Bayesian model for the parameters of the Nelson-Siegel yield function. We implement the MAP estimates via BFGS algorithm in rstan…

A robust machine learning approach forecasts U.S. Treasury yields, reducing risk for investors.

problem Noisy and uncertain U.S. Treasury yields pose risk to forecast users.
method Formulates yield curve forecasting as a distributionally robust problem, combining factor models and machine learning.

We orthogonalize the NSS model to condition and diagnose its ill-conditioned parameters.

problem The ill-conditioning of the NSS model's design matrix.
method Exact orthogonal reparametrization via QR decomposition.
result Orthogonalization isolates the conditioning structure and maintains fit uncertainty.

In this work we introduce Heath-Jarrow-Morton (HJM) interest rate models driven by fractional Brownian motions. By using support arguments we prove that the resulting model is arbitrage free under proportional transaction costs in the same spirit of Guasoni [Math. Finance 16 (2006) 569-582]. In particular, we obtain a …

Neural network model improves robustness of mortgage bond yield curve estimation.

problem Overfitting and instability in traditional yield curve estimation methods for small mortgage bond markets.
method Neural network framework with a new loss function for smoothness and stability.
result Empirical results show more robust and stable yield curve estimates compared to existing methods.

We derive an equation of motion for interest-rate yield curves by applying a minimum Fisher information variational approach to the implied probability density. By construction, solutions to the equation of motion recover observed bond prices. More significantly, the form of the resulting equation explains the success …
