基于个体特征的分位数因子模型估计AI 解读

This paper studies the estimation of characteristics-based quantile factor models where the factor loadings are unknown functions of observed individual characteristics, and the idiosyncratic error terms are subject to conditional quantile restrictions. We propose a three-stage estimation procedure that is easy to implement and has nice properties. The convergence rates, the limiting distributions of the estimated factors and loading functions, plus a consistent selection…

重复测量反卷积估计量的更快一致收敛率AI 解读

Recently, Kurisu and Otsu (2022b, Econometric Theory 38(1), 172–193) derived the uniform convergence rates for the nonparametric deconvolution estimators proposed by Li and Vuong (1998, Journal of Multivariate Analysis 65(2), 139–165). This article shows that faster uniform convergence rates can be established for their estimators under the same assumptions. In addition, a new class of deconvolution estimators based on a variant of Kotlarski’s identity is also proposed. It…

非线性面板数据模型的共同相关效应估计AI 解读

Summary This paper focuses on estimating the coefficients and average partial effects of observed regressors in nonlinear panel data models with interactive fixed effects, using the common correlated effects framework. The proposed two-step estimation method involves applying principal component analysis to estimate the latent factors based on cross-sectional averages of the regressors in the first step, and jointly estimating the coefficients of the regressors and the…

含交互固定效应的分位数面板模型两步估计AI 解读

This paper considers the estimation of panel data models with interactive fixed effects where the idiosyncratic errors are subject to conditional quantile restrictions. An easy-to-implement two-step estimator is proposed for the coefficients of the observed regressors. In the first step, the principal component analysis is applied to the cross-sectional averages of the regressors to estimate the latent factors. In the second step, the smoothed quantile regression is used to…

基于平滑分位数回归的简便面板分位数模型估计量AI 解读

Summary This paper considers panel data models where the idiosyncratic errors are subject to conditonal quantile restrictions. We propose a two-step estimator based on smoothed quantile regressions that is easy to implement. The asymptotic distribution of the estimator is established, and the analytical expression of its asymptotic bias is derived. Building on these results, we show how to make asymptotically valid inference on the basis of both analytical and split-panel…

分位数因子模型AI 解读

Quantile factor models (QFM) represent a new class of factor models for high‐dimensional panel data. Unlike approximate factor models (AFM), which only extract mean factors, QFM also allow unobserved factors to shift other relevant parts of the distributions of observables. We propose a quantile regression approach, labeled Quantile Factor Analysis (QFA), to consistently estimate all the quantile‐dependent factors and loadings. Their asymptotic distributions are established…

大型因子模型中大幅结构突变的检测AI 解读

Time invariance of factor loadings is a standard assumption in the analysis of large factor models. Yet, this assumption may be restrictive unless parameter shifts are mild (i.e., local to zero). In this paper we develop a new testing procedure to detect big breaks in these loadings at either known or unknown dates. It relies upon testing for parameter breaks in a regression of one of the factors estimated by Principal Components analysis on the remaining estimated factors,…
