非线性结构模型中边际效应分布与分位数的面板估计：垃圾食品需求应用AI 解读

In this paper, we propose a framework to estimate the distribution of marginal effects in a general class of structural models that allow for very general nonlinearities, high dimensional heterogeneity, and unrestricted correlation between the persistent components of this heterogeneity and all covariates. The main idea is to form a derivative dependent variable using two periods of the panel and use differences in outcome variables of nearby subpopulations to obtain the…

无需平滑参数的多元根号样本量一致匹配与逆密度加权期望估计AI 解读

Expected values weighted by the inverse of a multivariate density or, equivalently, Lebesgue integrals of regression functions with multivariate regressors occur in various areas of applications, including estimating average treatment effects, nonparametric estimators in random coefficient regression models or deconvolution estimators in Berkson errors-in-variables models. The frequently used nearest-neighbor and matching estimators suffer from bias problems in multiple…

局部平稳过程与二维高斯白噪声的渐近等价性AI 解读

We consider a general class of statistical experiments, in which an n-dimensional centered Gaussian random variable is observed and its covariance matrix is the parameter of interest. The covariance matrix is assumed to be well-approximable in a linear space of lower dimension Kn with eigenvalues uniformly bounded away from zero and infinity. We prove asymptotic equivalence of this experiment and a class of Kn-dimensional Gaussian models with informative expectation in Le…

随机系数三角模型AI 解读

The triangular model is a very popular way to allow for causal inference in the presence of endogeneity. In this model, an outcome is determined by an endogenous regressor, which in turn is first caused by an instrument. We study the triangular model with random coefficients and additional exogenous regressors in both equations, and establish non-identification of the joint distribution of random coefficients. This implies that counterfactual outcomes are not identified…

GARCH 模型中具有根 T 收敛率的密度估计AI 解读

We consider a new nonparametric estimator of the stationary density of the logarithm of the volatility of the GARCH(1,1) model. This problem is particularly challenging since this density is still unknown, even in cases where the model parameters are given. Although the volatility variables are only observed with multiplicative independent innovation errors with unknown density, we manage to construct a nonparametric procedure which estimates the log volatility density…

单侧误差非参数回归中的自适应函数估计AI 解读

We consider the model of nonregular nonparametric regression where smoothness constraints are imposed on the regression function $f$ and the regression errors are assumed to decay with some sharpness level at their endpoints. The aim of this paper is to construct an adaptive estimator for the regression function $f$. In contrast to the standard model where local averaging is fruitful, the nonregular conditions require a substantial different treatment based on local extreme…

函数型线性回归与白噪声逆问题的渐近等价性AI 解读

We consider the statistical experiment of functional linear regression (FLR). Furthermore, we introduce a white noise model where one observes an Itô process, which contains the covariance operator of the corresponding FLR model in its construction. We prove asymptotic equivalence of FLR and this white noise model in LeCam’s sense under known design distribution. Moreover, we show equivalence of FLR and an empirical version of the white noise model for finite sample sizes.…

混样检测数据的非参数回归分析AI 解读

Group testing is a procedure used to reduce the cost and increase the speed of large screening studies in which infection or contamination of individuals is detected by a test carried out on a sample of, for example, blood, urine, or water. Instead of testing the sample of each individual, the method involves pooling samples of groups of several individuals and testing those pooled samples. We construct a nonparametric procedure for estimating the conditional probability of…

In a large class of statistical inverse problems it is necessary to suppose that the transformation that is inverted is known. Although, in many applications, it is unrealistic to make this assumption, the problem is often insoluble without it. However, if additional data are available, then it is possible to estimate consistently the unknown error density. Data are seldom available directly on the transformation, but repeated, or replicated, measurements increasingly are…

异方差测量误差下的非参数回归估计AI 解读

In the classical errors-in-variables problem, the goal is to estimate a regression curve from data in which the explanatory variable is measured with error. In this context, nonparametric methods have been proposed that rely on the assumption that the measurement errors are identically distributed. Although there are many situations in which this assumption is too restrictive, nonparametric estimators in the more realistic setting of heteroscedastic errors have not been…

基于岭参数的反卷积方法AI 解读

Kernel methods for deconvolution have attractive features, and prevail in the literature. However, they have disadvantages, which include the fact that they are usually suitable only for cases where the error distribution is infinitely supported and its characteristic function does not ever vanish. Even in these settings, optimal convergence rates are achieved by kernel estimators only when the kernel is chosen to adapt to the unknown smoothness of the target distribution.…
