BOOSTING UNDER QUANTILE REGRESSION – CAN WE USE IT FOR MARKET RISK EVALUATION?

Main Article Content

Abstrakt
We consider boosting, i.e. one of popular statistical machine_x0002_learning meta-algorithms, as a possible tool for combining individual volatility estimates under a quantile regression (QR) framework. Short empirical exercise is carried out for the S&P500 daily return series in the period of 2004-2009. Our initial findings show that this novel approach is very promising and the in-sample goodness-of-fit of the QR model is very good. However much further research should be conducted as far as the out_x0002_of-sample quality of conditional quantile predictions is concerned.
