Nonparametric Quantile Regression for Homogeneity Pursuit in Panel Data Models
面板数据模型中追寻同质分组的非参数分位数回归
Many panel data have the latent subgroup effect on individuals, and it is important to correctly identify these groups since the efficiency of resulting estimators can be improved significantly by pooling the information of individuals within each group. However, the currently assumed parametric and semiparametric relationship between the response and predictors may be misspecified, which leads to a wrong grouping result, and the nonparametric approach hence can be…
