Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

We describe the implementation of a parameter estimation method suitable for models commonly used in quantitative finance. The Continuum-Generalized Method of Moments (CGMM) is a Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) type of methodology that applies a continuum of moment conditions to achieve the efficiency of a Maximum Likelihood method. Instead of the transition density, the more commonly available conditional characteristic function is used for estimation. We test the CGMM and a simpler version, called the CMM, on simulated time series to check the recovery of the parameters. We also applied CMM to two stochastic covariance models, the Wishart Affine Stochastic Correlation (WASC) model and the Principal Components Stochastic Volatility (PCSV) model. This illustrates the power of CGMM, as stochastic covariance models are generally hard to estimate. The estimation method is fully implemented in MATLAB.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
