Chapter 9: Model-Based Feature Extraction

Volatility Models as Feature Extractors: GARCH, EGARCH, and HAR intermediate

Chapter 9 already teaches what volatility-model outputs to extract. This primer narrows to the harder layer underneath that recipe: persistence geometry, parameter interpretation, and how to tell when the fitted risk state is statistically meaningful rather than just mechanically smooth.
