TLDR
In this article, a generalized pre-averaging approach for estimating the integrated volatility is presented, which can generate rate optimal estimators with convergence rate n 1/4. But the convergence rate is not guaranteed.

Kernel Estimation of Spot Volatility with Microstructure Noise Using Pre-Averaging

TL;DR: In this article, a kernel estimation of spot volatility in a general continuous It\^o semimartingale model in the absence of microstructure noise was studied, and a new type of pre-averaging/kernel estimator was proposed for spot volatility under the presence of additive micro structure noise.

Volatility estimation and forecasts based on price durations

TL;DR: In this article, price duration estimators are used for the estimation and forecasting of the integrated variance of an underlying semi-martingale price process and how they are affected by discrete and irregular spacing of observations, market microstructure noise, and finite price jumps.

Nonparametric Estimation of the Volatility Under Microstructure Noise: Wavelet Adaptation

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors study nonparametric estimation of the volatility function of a diffusion process from discrete data, when the data are blurred by additional noise, and propose a new criterion to assess the quality of estimation.

Local linear estimator for stochastic differential equations driven by α -stable Lévy motions

TL;DR: In this paper, the local linear estimator for the drift coefficient of stochastic differential equations driven by α-stable Levy motions observed at discrete instants was studied and the weak consistency and central limit theorem of the estimator was derived under regular conditions.

Testing for Jump Spillovers Without Testing for Jumps

TL;DR: The authors developed statistical tools for testing conditional independence among the jump components of the daily quadratic variation, which they estimate using intraday data. But they did not consider the conditional independence of the jump component.

Answering the skeptics: yes, standard volatility models do provide accurate forecasts*

TL;DR: In this article, a voluminous literature has emerged for modeling the temporal dependencies in financial market volatility using ARCH and stochastic volatility models and it has been shown that volatility models produce strikingly accurate inter-daily forecasts for the latent volatility factor that would be of interest in most financial applications.

A Simple Implicit Measure of the Effective Bid‐Ask Spread in an Efficient Market

Richard Roll
- 01 Sep 1984 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the effective bid-ask spread is measured by Spread = 2−cov where cov is the first-order serial covariance of price changes, and is shown empirically to be closely related to firm size.
