空间面板数据模型的鞍点近似AI 解读

We develop new higher-order asymptotic techniques for the Gaussian maximum likelihood estimator in a spatial panel data model, with fixed effects, time-varying covariates, and spatially correlated errors. Our saddlepoint density and tail area approximation feature relative error of order O(1/(n(T−1))) with n being the cross-sectional dimension and T the time-series dimension. The main theoretical tool is the tilted-Edgeworth technique in a nonidentically distributed setting.…

短记忆与长记忆时间序列的鞍点近似：频域方法AI 解读

Saddlepoint techniques provide numerically accurate, small sample approximations to the distribution of estimators and test statistics. Except for a few simple models, these approximations are not available in the framework of stationary time series. We contribute to fill this gap. Under short or long range serial dependence, for Gaussian and non Gaussian processes, we show how to derive and implement saddlepoint approximations for two relevant classes of frequency domain…

稳健滤波AI 解读

Filtering methods are powerful tools to estimate the hidden state of a state-space model from observations available in real time. However, they are known to be highly sensitive to the presence of small misspecifications of the underlying model and to outliers in the observation process. In this article, we show that the methodology of robust statistics can be adapted to sequential filtering. We define a filter as being robust if the relative error in the state distribution…

稳健间接推断AI 解读

In this article we develop robust indirect inference for a variety of models in a unified framework. We investigate the local robustness properties of indirect inference and derive the influence function of the indirect estimator, as well as the level and power influence functions of indirect tests. These tools are then used to design indirect inference procedures that are stable in the presence of small deviations from the assumed model. Although indirect inference was…
