Abstract
. I discuss a framework to allow dynamic sparsity in time-varying parameter regression models. The conditional variances of the innovations of time-varying parameters are time varying and equal to zero adaptively via thresholding. The resulting model allows the dynamics of the time-varying parameters to mix over different frequencies of parameter changes in a data driven way and permits great flexibility while achieving model parsimony. A convenient strategy is discussed to infer if each coefficient is static or dynamic and, if dynamic, how frequent the parameter change is. An MCMC scheme is developed for model estimation. The performance of the proposed approach is illustrated in studies of both simulated and real economic data.
