We test three common information criteria (IC) for selecting the order of a Hawkes process with an intensity kernel that can be expressed as a mixture of exponential terms. These processes find application in high-frequency financial data modelling. The information criteria are Akaikes information criterion (AIC), the Bayesian information criterion (BIC) and the Hannan-Quinn criterion (HQ). Since we work with simulated data, we are able to measure the performance of model selection by the success rate of the IC in selecting the model that was used to generate the data. In particular, we are interested in the relation between correct model selection and underlying sample size. The analysis includes realistic sample sizes and parameter sets from recent literature where parameters were estimated using empirical financial intra-day data. We compare our results to theoretical predictions and similar empirical findings on the asymptotic distribution of model selection for consistent and inconsistent IC.

In this work, we study the event occurrences of user activities on online social network platforms. To characterize the social activity interactions among network users, we propose a network group Hawkes (NGH) process model. Particularly, the observe
d network structure information is employed to model the users dynamic posting behaviors. Furthermore, the users are clustered into latent groups according to their dynamic behavior patterns. To estimate the model, a constraint maximum likelihood approach is proposed. Theoretically, we establish the consistency and asymptotic normality of the estimators. In addition, we show that the group memberships can be identified consistently. To conduct estimation, a branching representation structure is firstly introduced, and a stochastic EM (StEM) algorithm is developed to tackle the computational problem. Lastly, we apply the proposed method to a social network data collected from Sina Weibo, and identify the infuential network users as an interesting application.
Many fits of Hawkes processes to financial data look rather good but most of them are not statistically significant. This raises the question of what part of market dynamics this model is able to account for exactly. We document the accuracy of such
processes as one varies the time interval of calibration and compare the performance of various types of kernels made up of sums of exponentials. Because of their around-the-clock opening times, FX markets are ideally suited to our aim as they allow us to avoid the complications of the long daily overnight closures of equity markets. One can achieve statistical significance according to three simultaneous tests provided that one uses kernels with two exponentials for fitting an hour at a time, and two or three exponentials for full days, while longer periods could not be fitted within statistical satisfaction because of the non-stationarity of the endogenous process. Fitted timescales are relatively short and endogeneity factor is high but sub-critical at about 0.8.
We modify ETAS models by replacing the Pareto-like kernel proposed by Ogata with a Mittag-Leffler type kernel. Provided that the kernel decays as a power law with exponent $beta + 1 in (1,2]$, this replacement has the advantage that the Laplace trans
form of the Mittag-Leffler function is known explicitly, leading to simpler calculation of relevant quantities.
Financial time series have been investigated to follow fat-tailed distributions. Further, an empirical probability distribution sometimes shows cut-off shapes on its tails. To describe this stylized fact, we incorporate the cut-off effect in supersta
tistics. Then we confirm that the presented stochastic model is capable of describing the statistical properties of real financial time series. In addition, we present an option pricing formula with respect to superstatistics.
In this work we afford the statistical characterization of a linear Stochastic Volatility Model featuring Inverse Gamma stationary distribution for the instantaneous volatility. We detail the derivation of the moments of the return distribution, reve
aling the role of the Inverse Gamma law in the emergence of fat tails, and of the relevant correlation functions. We also propose a systematic methodology for estimating the parameters, and we describe the empirical analysis of the Standard & Poor 500 index daily returns, confirming the ability of the model to capture many of the established stylized fact as well as the scaling properties of empirical distributions over different time horizons.
