“…Then, the literature naturally considered certain forecast averaging methods, for example, as in Pesaran and Timmermann (2007). In particular, they include averaging over different estimation windows (Pesaran and Pick, 2011), the optimal and robust weighting forecasting approach (Pesaran et al, 2013), reverse ordered CUSUM weighting (Pesaran and Timmermann, 2002), and more weighting on the recent data (Tian and Anderson, 2014), and weighted averaging between the models with and without breaks based on a Mallows criterion (Hansen, 2009). …”
