TESTING A PARAMETRIC TRANSFORMATION MODEL VERSUS A NONPARAMETRIC ALTERNATIVE
参数变换模型对非参数备择的检验
Despite an abundance of semiparametric estimators of the transformation model, no procedure has been proposed yet to test the hypothesis that the transformation function belongs to a finite-dimensional parametric family against a nonparametric alternative. In this article, we introduce a bootstrap test based on integrated squared distance between a nonparametric estimator and a parametric null. As a special case, our procedure can be used to test the parametric specification…
