含协整解释变量的半参数单指数预测回归AI 解读

This paper considers the estimation of a semi-parametric single-index regression model that allows for nonlinear predictive relationships. This model is useful for predicting financial asset returns, whose observed behaviour resembles a stationary process, if the multiple nonstationary predictors are cointegrated. The presence of cointegrated regressors imposes a single-index structure in the model, and this structure not only balances the nonstationarity properties of the…

非平稳波动下的水平突变位置估计及其在单位根检验中的应用AI 解读

This paper focuses on the estimation of the location of level breaks in time series whose shocks display non-stationary volatility (permanent changes in unconditional volatility). We propose a new feasible weighted least squares (WLS) estimator, based on an adaptive estimate of the volatility path of the shocks. We show that this estimator belongs to a generic class of weighted residual sum of squares which also contains the ordinary least squares (OLS) and WLS estimators,…

计数时间序列的半参数独立性检验与支持集作用AI 解读

This article considers testing for independence in a time series of small counts within an Integer Autoregressive (INAR) model, taking a semiparametric approach that avoids any distributional assumption on the arrivals process of the model. The nature of the testing problem is shown to differ depending on whether or not the support of the arrivals distribution is the full set of natural numbers (as would be the case for Poisson or Negative Binomial distributions for example)…

未知异方差下的自适应长记忆检验AI 解读

This paper considers adaptive hypothesis testing for the fractional differencing parameter in a parametric ARFIMA model with unconditional heteroskedasticity of unknown form. A weighted score test based on a nonparametric variance estimator is proposed and shown to be asymptotically equivalent, under the null and local alternatives, to the Neyman-Rao effective score test constructed under Gaussianity and known variance process. The proposed test is therefore asymptotically…

未知时点可能存在趋势断点时的 VAR 协整秩检验AI 解读

In this paper we consider the problem of testing for the co-integration rank of a vector autoregressive process in the case where a trend break may potentially be present in the data. It is known that un-modelled trend breaks can result in tests which are incorrectly sized under the null hypothesis and inconsistent under the alternative hypothesis. Extant procedures in this literature have attempted to solve this inference problem but require the practitioner to either…

计数数据的有效概率预测AI 解读

Summary Efficient probabilistic forecasts of integer-valued random variables are derived. The optimality is achieved by estimating the forecast distribution non-parametrically over a given broad model class and proving asymptotic (non-parametric) efficiency in that setting. The method is developed within the context of the integer auto-regressive class of models, which is a suitable class for any count data that can be interpreted as a queue, stock, birth-and-death process…

IPS 面板单位根检验的局部渐近功效与初始观测影响AI 解读

In this note we derive the local asymptotic power function of the standardized averaged Dickey–Fuller panel unit root statistic of Im, Pesaran, and Shin (2003, Journal of Econometrics , 115, 53–74), allowing for heterogeneous deterministic intercept terms. We consider the situation where the deviation of the initial observation from the underlying intercept term in each individual time series may not be asymptotically negligible. We find that power decreases monotonically as…

分数单位根的异方差稳健检验AI 解读

This paper shows how fractional unit root tests originally derived under stationarity can be made robust to heteroskedasticity. This is done by using existing tests nested in a regression framework and then implementing these tests using White’s heteroskedasticity consistent standard errors (White, 1980). We show this approach is effective both asymptotically and in finite samples. We also provide some evidence on the asymptotic local power of different implementations of…

可能存在趋势断点时的单位根检验AI 解读

We consider the issue of testing a time series for a unit root in the possible presence of a break in a linear deterministic trend at an unknown point in the series. We propose a new break fraction estimator which, where a break in trend occurs, is consistent for the true break fraction at rate O p ( T −1 ). Unlike other available estimators, however, when there is no trend break, our estimator converges to zero at rate O p ( T −1/2 ). Used in conjunction with a quasi…

长记忆检验AI 解读

This paper introduces a new test statistic for the null hypothesis of short memory against long memory alternatives. The novelty of our statistic is that it is based on only high-order sample autocovariances and by construction eliminates the effects of nuisance parameters typically induced by short memory autocorrelation. For practically relevant situations where the short memory process is not directly observed, but instead appears as the disturbance term in a…

针对近积分过程的修正 KPSS 检验AI 解读

This note suggests a simple modification to the Kwiatkowski, Phillips, Schmidt, and Shin (1992, Journal of Econometrics , 54, 159–178) test (KPSS test) so that it is applicable to testing the null hypothesis of near integration against a unit root alternative. The modified KPSS test is shown not to suffer from the asymptotic size distortion problems of the original KPSS test that are described by Müller (2005, Journal of Econometrics 128, 195–213). The test also has good…

基于残差的随机协整检验AI 解读

We consider the problem of hypothesis testing in a modified version of the stochastic integration and cointegration framework of Harris, McCabe, and Leybourne (2002, Journal of Econometrics 111, 363–384). This nonlinear setup allows for volatility in excess of that catered for by the standard integration/cointegration paradigm through the introduction of nonstationary heteroskedasticity. We propose a test for stochastic cointegration against the alternative of no…

允许横截面依赖的购买力平价面板平稳性检验AI 解读

We investigate the purchasing power parity (PPP) hypothesis for a group of 17 countries using a new panel-based test of stationarity that allows for arbitrary cross-sectional dependence. We treat the short-run time series dynamics nonparametrically and thus avoid the need to fit separate, and potentially misspecified, models for the individual series. The statistic is simple to compute and uses standard normal critical values, even in the presence of a wide range of…

滞后阶数随样本量变化的自协方差极限理论AI 解读

In this paper we provide some weak convergence results for sample statistics of the product of a variable with its kth-order lag. We assume the variable is a stationary vector that can be represented by linear process, and the lag length k is allowed to be a function of the sample size. Employing the Beveridge–Nelson decomposition, we derive a new functional central limit theorem for this situation and establish related stochastic integral convergence results. We then…

协整时间序列的主成分分析AI 解读

This paper considers the analysis of cointegrated time series using principal components methods. These methods have the advantage of requiring neither the normalization imposed by the triangular error correction model nor the specification of a finite-order vector autoregression. An asymptotically efficient estimator of the cointegrating vectors is given, along with tests forcointegration and tests of certain linear restrictions on the cointegrating vectors. An illustrative…
