This paper shows how to carry out efficient asymptotic variance reduction when estimating volatility in the presence of stochastic volatility and microstructure noise with the realized kernels (RK) from [Barndorff-Nielsen et al., 2008] and the quasi-maximum likelihood estimator (QMLE) studied in [Xiu, 2010]. To obtain such a reduction, we chop the data into B blocks, compute the RK (or QMLE) on each block, and aggregate the block estimates. The ratio of asymptotic variance over the bound of asymptotic efficiency converges as B increases to the ratio in the parametric version of the problem, i.e. 1.0025 in the case of the fastest RK Tukey-Hanning 16 and 1 for the QMLE. The impact of stochastic sampling times and jump in the price process is examined carefully. The finite sample performance of both estimators is investigated in simulations, while empirical work illustrates the gain in practice.
When estimating high-frequency covariance (quadratic covariation) of two arbitrary assets observed asynchronously, simple assumptions, such as independence, are usually imposed on the relationship between the prices process and the observation times. In this paper, we introduce a general endogenous twodimensional nonparametric model. Because an observation is generated whenever an auxiliary process called observation time process hits one of the two boundary processes, it is called the hitting boundary process with time process (HBT) model. We establish a central limit theorem for the Hayashi-Yoshida (HY) estimator under HBT in the case where the price process and the observation price process follow a continuous Itô process. We obtain an asymptotic bias. We provide an estimator of the latter as well as a bias-corrected HY estimator of the high-frequency covariance. In addition, we give a consistent estimator of the associated standard error. * We would like to thank
In this paper, we extend some usual techniques of classification resulting from a large-scale data-mining and network approach. This new technology, which in particular is designed to be suitable to big data, is used to construct an open consolidated database from raw data on 4 million patents taken from the US patent office from 1976 onward. To build the pattern network, not only do we look at each patent title, but we also examine their full abstract and extract the relevant keywords accordingly. We refer to this classification as semantic approach in contrast with the more common technological approach which consists in taking the topology when considering US Patent office technological classes. Moreover, we document that both approaches have highly different topological measures and strong statistical evidence that they feature a different model. This suggests that our method is a useful tool to extract endogenous information.

In this paper, we build tests for the presence of residual noise in a model where the market microstructure noise is a known parametric function of some variables from the limit order book.The tests compare two distinct quasi-maximum likelihood estimators of volatility, where the related model includes a residual noise in the market microstructure noise or not. The limit theory is investigated in a general nonparametric framework. In the presence of residual noise, we examine the central limit theory of the related quasi-maximum likelihood estimation approach.
