Hi all,

I have estimated several stochastic processes. In order to test for the goodness-of-fit I need to build first density forecasts equivalent to the following equation:

Can anyone explain how I could model this in Matlab?

Hi Shahank, thank you for your comment!

This approach was originally proposed by Diebold, Gunther and Tay (Evaluating Density Forecasts with Applications to Finance and Management, International Economic Review, 39, 863-883) For a quick overview see: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/22494387/2006-21-1.pdf (pdf-page 13)

They prove that z_t is identically and independently distributed as a uniform random variable on [0,1] if f(...) is correctly specified.
