Update stochastic volatility notebook for best practices (#378)
* Bring stochastic volatility notebook in line with style guide
Fixing dashes in reference entry
Removing extra lines from reference bib file
* Adding original author information to stochastic volatility notebook
* Adding updated myst file
* Fixing misspecified tags and updating author list
* Update stochastic_volatility.myst.md
Asset prices have time-varying volatility (variance of day over day `returns`). In some periods, returns are highly variable, while in others very stable. Stochastic volatility models model this with a latent volatility variable, modeled as a stochastic process. The following model is similar to the one described in the No-U-Turn Sampler paper, Hoffman (2011) p21.
