Structural VAR models in the Frequency Domain
频域中的结构 VAR 模型
This paper proposes a joint methodology for the identification and inference of structural vector autoregressive models in the frequency domain. We show that identifying restrictions can be written naturally as an asymptotic least squares problem (Gouriéroux et al., 1985) in which there is a continuum of nonlinear estimating equations. Following Carrasco and Florens (2000), we then propose a continuum asymptotic least squares estimator (C-ALS) that efficiently exploits the…
