About the Lab
Professor Sangyeol Lee's research lab specializes in statistical inference and time series analysis, with a strong focus on change-point detection, parameter stability, and robust estimation in stochastic processes. The lab investigates advanced cusum-based tests for structural changes in autoregressive, moving average, and GARCH models, particularly under non-Gaussian and heavy-tailed innovations. A key research direction involves developing robust and asymptotically valid procedures for parameter change detection in complex time series, including Poisson autoregressive and stochastic regression models. The lab also explores quantile regression and empirical process theory for high-dimensional and infinite-order time series.

15Abstract. In this paper, we consider the problem of testing for parameter changes in time series models based on a cusum test. Although the test procedure is well established for the mean and variance in time series models, a general parameter case has not been discussed in the literature. Therefore, here we develop a cusum test for parameter change in a more general framework. As an example, we consider the change of the parameters in a random coeefficient autoregressive (1) model and that of t
In this paper we consider the problem of testing for a scale change in the infinite order moving average process X j =Σ ∞ i =0 a i ε j − i , where ε j are i.i.d. r.v.s with E ε 1 α < ∞ for some α > 0. In performing the test, a cusum of squares test statistic analogous to Inclan & Tiao’s (1994) statistic is considered. It is well‐known from the literature that outliers affect test procedures leading to false conclusions. In order to remedy this, a cusum of squares test based on trimmed
ABSTRACT In this paper, we consider the problem of testing for a parameter change in Poisson autoregressive models. We suggest two types of cumulative sum (CUSUM) tests, namely, those based on estimates and residuals. We first demonstrate that the conditional maximum likelihood estimator (CMLE) is strongly consistent and asymptotically normal and then construct the CMLE‐based CUSUM test. It is shown that under regularity conditions, its limiting null distribution is a function of independent Bro
In this paper we consider the problem of testing for a parameter change in regression models with ARCH errors based on the residual cusum test. It is shown that the limiting distribution of the residual cusum test statistic is the sup of a Brownian bridge. Through a simulation study, it is demonstrated that the proposed test circumvents the drawbacks of Kim et al.’s (2000) cusum test. For illustration, we apply the residual cusum test to the return of yen/dollar exchange rate data.
Motivated by Gaussian tests for a time series, we are led to investigate the asymptotic behavior of the residual empirical processes of stochastic regression models. These models cover the fixed design regression models as well as general AR$(q)$ models. Since the number of the regression coeffi-cients is allowed to grow as the sample size increases, the obtained results are also applicable to nonlinear regression and stationary AR$(\infty)$ models. In this paper, we first derive an oscillation-
Abstract. In this article, we study the quantile regression estimator for GARCH models. We formulate the quantile regression problem by a reparametrization method and verify that the obtained quantile regression estimator is strongly consistent and asymptotically normal under certain regularity conditions. We also present our simulation results and a real data analysis for illustration.
In this paper, we consider the problem of testing for parameter change in zero-inflated generalized Poisson (ZIGP) autoregressive models. We verify that the ZIGP process is stationary and ergodic and that the conditional maximum likelihood estimator (CMLE) is strongly consistent and asymptotically normal. Based on these results, we construct CMLE- and residual-based cumulative sum tests and show that their limiting null distributions are a function of independent Brownian bridges. The simulation
