LEAST ABSOLUTE DEVIATIONS REGRESSION UNDER NONSTANDARD CONDITIONS
非标准条件下的最小绝对偏差回归
Most work on the asymptotic properties of least absolute deviations (LAD) estimators makes use of the assumption that the common distribution of the disturbances has a density that is both positive and finite at zero. We consider the implications of weakening this assumption in a number of regression settings, primarily with a time series orientation. These models include ones with deterministic and stochastic trends, and we pay particular attention to the case of a simple…
