干扰参数满足不等式约束时的简单自适应置信区间AI 解读

Inequalities may appear in many models. They can be as simple as assuming a parameter is nonnegative, possibly a regression coefficient or a treatment effect. This paper focuses on models with one inequality and proposes an inequality-imposed confidence interval (IICI) that has particularly attractive features. The IICI is simple in that it does not require simulations or tuning parameters. Also, the IICI is adaptive to the slackness of the inequality, uniformly valid, and…

Abstract This paper describes how to reparametrize low-dimensional factor models with one or two factors to fit weak identification theory developed for generalized method of moments models. Some identification-robust tests, here called “plug-in” tests, require a reparametrization to distinguish weakly identified parameters from strongly identified parameters. The reparametrizations in this paper make plug-in tests available for subvector hypotheses in low-dimensional factor…

一类最小距离模型中结合参数界限的弱识别推断AI 解读

When parameters are weakly identified, bounds on the parameters may provide a valuable source of information. Existing weak identification estimation and inference results are unable to combine weak identification with bounds. Within a class of minimum distance models, this paper proposes identification-robust inference that incorporates information from bounds when parameters are weakly identified. This paper demonstrates the value of the bounds and identification-robust…
