For the sake of plottiug them, someone had brought forward the optimization segn.entotion metkod. We have ased this method to plot the sequential rock remote sensing information at tbe remote sensing hyperspetral test field of Daqing mountain, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, China, and found some disadvantages of this method. Therefore, we put forward the optimization dichotomy to plot them, and get better results. Finally we make a conclusion.展开更多

From previous studies, we include three methodologies namely the GARCH model, the Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) to estimate systems of equations and the Granger causality test to investigate the relationship more thoroughly. In addition, we introduce the lagged volume as a new explanatory variable in the GARCH model. Overall, the results show the significant contemporaneous and dynamic relationships between trading volume and returns volatility which support the sequential information arrival hypothesis and imply some degree of market inefficiency. The results from this study also show that past information of trading volume can be used to improve the prediction of price volatility. Therefore, regulators and traders could include past information of trading volume of SET50 index futures in tracking and monitoring the market volatility level and the investment risk in order to make a timely decision.展开更多
