  • We introduce Ising-Hüsler-Reiss processes, a new class of multivariate Lévy processes that allows for sparse modeling of the path-wise conditional independence structure between marginal stable processes with different stability indices. The underlying conditional independence graph is encoded as zeroes in a suitable precision matrix. An Ising-type parametrization of the weights for each orthant of the Lévy measure allows for data-driven modeling of asymmetry of the jumps while retaining an arbitrary sparse graph. We develop consistent estimators for the graphical structure and asymmetry parameters, relying on a new uniform small-time approximation for Lévy processes. The methodology is illustrated in simulations and a real data application to modeling dependence of stock returns.
