Markov Regime-Switching GARCH (MRS-GARCH) models have been gaining popularity due to their ability to account for shifts volatility regimes that tend to characterize returns series. Previous empirical studies have shown that this capacity to capture the volatility dynamics leads to a superior forecasting power of the MRS models. We investigate the performance of these models in quantifying and man
The goal with this paper is to formally define knowledge from the assumption that our universe is computable. Based on this assumption, we will formulate a minimalist ontology that will be the theoretical basis for our formal definition of knowledge. We will use the classical definitions of knowledge like "reliabilism" (RTB) and "justified true belief" (JTB) as our starting poi
