Inference on breaks in weak location time series models with the estimating function approach
基于估计函数的弱条件位置时间序列模型断点推断
Drawing on Godambe’s theory of estimating functions, we present a statistical approach for identifying breaks in time series dynamics under weak assumptions. We assume a parametric form for the conditional mean but make no specific assumptions about the data-generating process (DGP), nor about the other conditional moments. The cumulative sum (CUSUM) statistics and segmentation of minimal cost (SMC) statistics that we consider depend on a sequence of weights that influence…
