未知持续性形式下非线性预测回归的按时间修剪最小二乘AI 解读

Relatively, recent work by Jeganathan (2008, Cowles Foundation Discussion Paper 1649) and Wang (2014, Econometric Theory , 30(3), 509–535) on generalized martingale central limit theorems (MCLTs) implicitly introduces a new class of instrument arrays that yield (mixed) Gaussian limit theory irrespective of the persistence level in the data. Motivated by these developments, we propose a new semiparametric method for estimation and inference in nonlinear predictive regressions…

平稳持久数据下的时变参数回归AI 解读

We consider local level and local linear estimators for estimation and inference in time-varying parameter (TVP) regressions with general stationary covariates. The latter estimator also yields estimates for parameter derivatives that are utilized for the development of time invariance tests for the regression coefficients. Our theoretical framework is general enough to allow for a wide range of stationary regressors, including stationary long memory. We demonstrate that…

分数阶 d=1/2 与弱非平稳过程下的估计和推断AI 解读

We provide new limit theory for functionals of a general class of processes lying at the boundary between stationarity and nonstationarity—what we term weakly nonstationary processes (WNPs). This includes, as leading examples, fractional processes with d=1/2, and arrays of autoregressive processes with roots drifting slowly towards unity. We first apply the theory to study inference in parametric and nonparametric regression models involving WNPs as covariates. We then use…

潜变量非参数协整回归AI 解读

This article studies the asymptotic properties of empirical nonparametric regressions that partially misspecify the relationships between nonstationary variables. In particular, we analyze nonparametric kernel regressions in which a potential nonlinear cointegrating regression is misspecified through the use of a proxy regressor in place of the true regressor. Such models occur in linear and nonlinear regressions where the regressor suffers from measurement error or where…

非参数预测回归AI 解读

A unifying framework for inference is developed in predictive regressions where the predictor has unknown integration properties and may be stationary or nonstationary. Two easily implemented nonparametric F-tests are proposed. The limit distribution of these predictive tests is nuisance parameter free and holds for a wide range of predictors including stationary as well as non-stationary fractional and near unit root processes. Asymptotic theory and simulations show that…

非参数协整回归中的动态误设AI 解读

Linear cointegration is known to have the important property of invariance under temporal translation. The same property is shown not to apply for nonlinear cointegration. The limit properties of the Nadaraya–Watson (NW) estimator for cointegrating regression under misspecified lag structure are derived, showing the NW estimator to be inconsistent, in general, with a “pseudo-true function” limit that is a local average of the true regression function. In this respect…

单位根回归中的函数形式误设AI 解读

We examine the limit properties of the nonlinear least squares (NLS) estimator under functional form misspecification in regression models with a unit root. Our theoretical framework is the same as that of Park and Phillips (2001, Econometrica 69, 117–161). We show that the limit behavior of the NLS estimator is largely determined by the relative orders of magnitude of the true and fitted models. If the estimated model is of different order of magnitude than the true model,…

若干非平稳模型中的 Bierens 检验AI 解读

We adapt the Bierens (1990) test to the I-regular models of Park and Phillips (2001). Bierens (1990) defines the test hypothesis in terms of a conditional moment condition. Under the null hypothesis, the moment condition holds with probability one. The probability measure used is that induced by the variables in the model, that are assumed to be strictly stationary. Our framework is nonstationary and this approach is not always applicable. We show that the Lebesgue measure…

协整关系中的函数形式误设检验AI 解读

A simple specification test based on fully modified residuals and the cumulative sum (CUSUM) test for cointegration of Xiao and Phillips (2002, Journal of Econometrics , 108, 43–61) are considered as means of testing for functional form in long-run cointegrating relations. It is shown that both tests are consistent under functional form misspecification and lack of cointegration. A simulation experiment is carried out to assess the properties of the tests in finite samples.…
