空间 Probit 模型的部分最大似然估计AI 解读

This paper analyzes spatial Probit models for cross sectional dependent data in a binary choice context. Observations are divided by pairwise groups and bivariate normal distributions are specified within each group. Partial maximum likelihood estimators are introduced and they are shown to be consistent and asymptotically normal under some regularity conditions. Consistent covariance matrix estimators are also provided. Estimates of average partial effects can also be…

强或弱工具变量下联立方程模型的近乎无偏估计AI 解读

We propose two simple bias-reduction procedures that apply to estimators in a general static simultaneous equation model and that are valid under relatively weak distributional assumptions for the errors. Standard jackknife estimators, as applied to 2SLS, may not reduce the bias of the exogenous variable coefficient estimators since the estimator biases are not monotonically nonincreasing with sample size (a necessary condition for successful bias reduction) and they have…

GARCH 均值模型中的半参数推断AI 解读

A new semiparametric estimator for an empirical asset pricing model with general nonparametric risk-return tradeoff and GARCH-type underlying volatility is introduced. Based on the profile likelihood approach, it does not rely on any initial parametric estimator of the conditional mean function, and it is under stated conditions consistent, asymptotically normal, and efficient, i.e., it achieves the semiparametric lower bound. A sampling experiment provides finite sample…

条件异方差扰动下联立方程工具变量估计的改进AI 解读

Abstract In this paper we develop estimation techniques and a specification test for the validity of instrumental variables allowing for conditionally heteroskedastic disturbances. We propose modified two‐stage least squares (2SLS) and modified 3SLS procedures where the conditional heteroskedasticity is taken into account, which are natural extensions of the traditional 2SLS and 3SLS estimators and which achieve a lower variance. We recommend the use of these modified 2SLS…

GARCH(1,1) 参数准极大似然估计的自助法高阶改进AI 解读

This paper reconsiders a block bootstrap procedure for Quasi Maximum Likelihood estimation of GARCH models, based on the resampling of the likelihood function, as proposed by Gonçalves and White [2004. Maximum likelihood and the bootstrap for nonlinear dynamic models. Journal of Econometrics 119, 199-219]. First, we provide necessary conditions and sufficient conditions, in terms of moments of the innovation process, for the existence of the Edgeworth expansion of the…

参数位于边界时的高阶渐近理论及其GARCH应用AI 解读

Andrews (1999, Econometrica 67, 1341–1383) derived the first-order asymptotic theory for a very general class of estimators when a parameter is on a boundary. We derive the second-order asymptotic theory in this setting in some special cases. We focus on the behavior of the quasi maximum likelihood estimator (QMLE) in stationary and nonstationary generalized autoregressive conditionally heteroskedastic (GARCH) models when constraints are imposed in the maximization…

二元 ARCH 模型：QML 估计的有限样本性质及 LM 型检验应用AI 解读

This paper provides two main new results: the first shows theoretically that large biases and variances can arise when the quasi-maximum likelihood (QML) estimation method is employed in a simple bivariate structure under the assumption of conditional heteroskedasticity; and the second demonstrates how these analytical theoretical results can be used to improve the finite-sample performance of a test for multivariate autoregressive conditional heteroskedastic (ARCH) effects,…
