STRUCTURAL THRESHOLD REGRESSION
结构门槛回归
This paper introduces the structural threshold regression (STR) model that allows for an endogenous threshold variable as well as for endogenous regressors. This model provides a parsimonious way of modeling nonlinearities and has many potential applications in economics and finance. Our framework can be viewed as a generalization of the simple threshold regression framework of Hansen (2000, Econometrica 68, 575–603) and Caner and Hansen (2004, Econometric Theory 20,…
