参数位于参数空间边界时的惩罚准似然估计与模型选择AI 解读

Summary We consider here penalized likelihood-based estimation and model selection applied to econometric time series models, which allow for nonnegativity (boundary) constraints on some or all of the parameters. We establish that joint model selection and estimation result in standard asymptotic Gaussian distributed estimators. The results contrast with nonpenalized estimation, which, as is well-known, leads to nonstandard asymptotic distributions that depend on the unknown…

参数空间边界上的 Bootstrap 推断及条件波动率应用AI 解读

It is a well-established fact that – with an unknown number of nuisance parameters at the boundary – testing a null hypothesis on the boundary of the parameter space is infeasible in practice as the limiting distributions of standard test statistics are non-pivotal. In particular, likelihood ratio statistics have limiting distributions which can be characterized in terms of quadratic forms minimized over cones, where the shape of the cones depends on the unknown location of…

非因果自回归的 Bootstrap 推断及其在爆炸性泡沫建模中的应用AI 解读

In this article, we develop new bootstrap-based inference for noncausal autoregressions with heavy-tailed innovations. This class of models is widely used for modeling bubbles and explosive dynamics in economic and financial time series. In the noncausal, heavy-tail framework, a major drawback of asymptotic inference is that it is not feasible in practice as the relevant limiting distributions depend crucially on the (unknown) decay rate of the tails of the distribution of…

向量自回归模型中协整关系假设的自助法检验AI 解读

It is well known that the finite-sample properties of tests of hypotheses on the cointegrating vectors in vector autoregressive models can be quite poor, and that current solutions based on Bartlett-type corrections or bootstrap based on unrestricted parameter estimators are unsatisfactory, in particular in those cases where also asymptotic chi^2 tests fail most severely. In this paper, we solve this inference problem by showing \nthe novel result that a bootstrap test where…

含分段线性趋势的I(2)协整模型AI 解读

This paper presents likelihood analysis of the I(2) cointegrated vector autoregression which allows for piecewise linear deterministic terms. Limiting behaviour of the maximum likelihood estimators are derived, which is used to further derive the limiting distribution of the likelihood ratio statistic for the cointegration ranks, extending Nielsen and Rahbek. The provided asymptotic theory extends also the results in Johansen et al. where asymptotic inference is discussed in…

I(2) 模型协整秩的似然比检验AI 解读

This paper presents the likelihood ratio (LR) test for the number of cointegrating relations in the I(2) vector autoregressive model. It is shown that the asymptotic distribution of the LR test for the cointegration ranks is identical to the asymptotic distribution of the much applied test statistic based on the two-step estimation procedure in Johansen (1995, Econometric Theory 11, 25–59), Paruolo (1996, Journal of Econometrics 72, 313–356), and Rahbek, Kongsted, and…

存在异常值时的协整分析AI 解读

The effects of innovational outliers and additive outliers in cointegrated vector autoregressive models are examined and it is analyzed how outliers can be modelled with dummy variables. A Monte Carlo simulation illustrates that additive outliers are more distortionary than innovational outliers, and misspecified dummies may distort inference on the cointegration rank in finite samples. These findings question the common practice in applied cointegration analyses of…
