非线性 DSGE 模型的有限样本识别稳健推断AI 解读

ABSTRACT We develop identification‐robust likelihood‐free simultaneous confidence sets for dynamic stochastic general equilibrium models, without relying on linear approximations. Our methodology integrates simulation estimation methods using auxiliary statistics with Monte Carlo test principles. Results cover deep parameters and impulse responses. Auxiliary statistics include coefficients of linear and nonlinear vector autoregressions and local projections. Proposed…

多因子资产定价模型中识别稳健的同时推断AI 解读

This paper proposes exact identification-robust confidence sets for the zero-beta rate and ex-post factor prices in asset pricing models. Exploiting the information from the cross-sectional intercept allows us to impose or formally test model-consistent restrictions, including those resulting from traded factors in excess of the zero beta-rate or from return spreads. Analytical projection-based solutions for confidence set outcomes are developed. The proposed procedures are…

识别稳健的贝塔定价、张成检验、模拟组合与巨灾债券基准中性AI 解读

This paper proposes inference strategies for conditional and unconditional asset pricing models, which cover beta pricing, the zero-beta rate, risk prices, Jensen’s alphas, mean–variance spanning and intersection. We derive analytical conditions that link the identification of the zero-beta rate to spanning. Following finite-sample statistical considerations, the proposed procedures correct for measurement error with mimicking portfolios, and are invariant to fund repacking…

基于模拟伪匹配的识别稳健推断AI 解读

We develop a general simulation-based inference procedure for partially specified models. Our procedure is based on matching auxiliary statistics to simulated counterparts where nuisance parameters are calibrated neither assuming identification of parameters of interest nor a one-to-one binding function. The conditions underlying the asymptotic validity of our (pseudo-)simulators in conjunction with appropriate bootstraps are characterized beyond the strict and exact…

含 MIDAS 协变量的动态面板：非线性、估计与拟合AI 解读

This paper introduces Mixed Data Sampling (MIDAS) into the panel data context. To address the unidentified nuisance parameter problem, we propose to invert model specification tests for inference on the MIDAS parameter along with bounds tests for model coefficients. Illustrative identification, simulation and empirical analyses are conducted in the dynamic GMM framework. Our framework allows for departures from i.i.d errors such as clustering and dynamic specifications. A…

自回归面板的蒙特卡洛两阶段间接推断AI 解读

Persistence and mean-nonstationarity often undermine reliability of asymptotically justified inference in dynamic panels. We combine the Monte Carlo test (MCT) and the indirect inference estimation (IIE) principles to construct confidence regions for autoregressive panel parameters with valid coverage whether mean-stationarity is imposed or relaxed and whether autoregressive roots are at or close to the unit boundary or far from unity. Procedures are based on the standard…

组合 p 值检验协整回归中的多重结构突变AI 解读

We propose a multiple hypothesis testing approach to assess structural stability in cointegrating regressions. Underlying tests are constructed via a Vector Error Correction Model and generalize the reduced rank regression procedures of Hansen (2003). We generalize the likelihood ratio test proposed in Hansen (2003) to accommodate unknown break dates through the specification of several scenarios regarding the number and the location of the breaks. We define a combined…

比较不平等指标的置换检验AI 解读

Asymptotic and bootstrap tests for inequality measures are known to perform poorly in finite samples when the underlying distribution is heavy-tailed. We propose Monte Carlo permutation and bootstrap methods for the problem of testing the equality of inequality measures between two samples. Results cover the Generalized Entropy class, which includes Theil’s index, the Atkinson class of indices, and the Gini index. We analyze finite-sample and asymptotic conditions for the…

工具变量回归中基于因子的识别稳健推断AI 解读

Summary Robust methods for instrumental variable inference have received considerable attention recently. Their analysis has raised a variety of problematic issues such as size/power trade‐offs resulting from weak or many instruments. We show that information reduction methods provide a useful and practical solution to this and related problems. Formally, we propose factor‐based modifications to three popular weak‐instrument‐robust statistics, and illustrate their validity…

协整回归中对识别状态稳健的推断AI 解读

In cointegrating regressions, estimators and test statistics are nuisance parameter dependent. This paper addresses this problem from an identification-robust perspective. Confidence sets for the long-run coefficient (denoted β) are proposed that invert LR-tests against an unrestricted or a cointegration-restricted alternative. For empirically relevant special cases, we provide analytical solutions to the inversion problem. A simulation study, imposing and relaxing strong…

稳定分布的精确置信集合与拟合优度方法AI 解读

Usual inference methods for stable distributions are typically based on limit distributions. But asymptotic approximations can easily be unreliable in such cases, for standard regularity conditions may not apply or may hold only weakly. This paper proposes finite-sample tests and confidence sets for tail thickness and asymmetry parameters (α and β) of stable distributions. The confidence sets are built by inverting exact goodness-of-fit tests for hypotheses which assign…

能源价格动态中时变参数的识别稳健检验AI 解读

SUMMARY We test for the presence of time‐varying parameters (TVP) in the long‐run dynamics of energy prices for oil, natural gas and coal, within a standard class of mean‐reverting models. We also propose residual‐based diagnostic tests and examine out‐of‐sample forecasts. In‐sample LR tests support the TVP model for coal and gas but not for oil, though companion diagnostics suggest that the model is too restrictive to conclusively fit the data. Out‐of‐sample analysis…

参数比值的识别稳健置信集及其离散选择应用AI 解读

We study the problem of building confidence sets for ratios of parameters, from an identification robust perspective. In particular, we address the simultaneous confidence set estimation of a finite number of ratios. Results apply to a wide class of models suitable for estimation by consistent asymptotically normal procedures. Conventional methods (e.g. the delta method) derived by excluding the parameter discontinuity regions entailed by the ratio functions and which…

多元残差的有限样本序列相关与 ARCH 检验：资产定价应用AI 解读

Abstract In this paper, we propose several finite‐sample specification tests for multivariate linear regressions (MLR). We focus on tests for serial dependence and ARCH effects with possibly non‐Gaussian errors. The tests are based on properly standardized multivariate residuals to ensure invariance to error covariances. The procedures proposed provide: (i) exact variants of standard multivariate portmanteau tests for serial correlation as well as ARCH effects, and (ii)…

动态能源需求模型的有限样本推断方法AI 解读

Abstract This paper considers finite sample motivated inference methods in dynamic energy demand models, in which case commonly used econometric methods remain asymptotic. We focus on structural stability, and on exact confidence set estimation of elasticities. We account for intractable and nuisance parameter dependant distributions through Monte Carlo test procedures. For long‐run elasticities which depend on parameter ratios, we assess available asymptotic and exact…

允许非高斯误差的均值—方差有效性多元检验AI 解读

We develop exact mean–variance efficiency tests of the market portfolio in the context of (conditional and unconditional) capital asset pricing models (CAPM), allowing for a wide class of possibly non-Gaussian error distributions. The proposed procedures are applicable in a general multivariate linear regression framework, and exactness is achieved through Monte Carlo test techniques. We also perform exact multivariate diagnostic checks. Empirical results show that the…

似不相关回归中扰动同期相关性的精确检验AI 解读

This paper proposes finite-sample procedures for testing the SURE specification in multi-equation regression models, i.e. whether the disturbances in different equations are contemporaneously uncorrelated or not. We apply the technique of Monte Carlo (MC) tests [Dwass (1957), Barnard (1963)] to obtain exact tests based on standard LR and LM zero correlation tests. We also suggest a MC quasi-LR (QLR) test based on feasible generalized least squares (FGLS). We show that the…

线性回归中基于模拟的有限样本正态性检验AI 解读

In the literature on tests of normality, much concern has been expressed over the problems associated with residual-based procedures. Indeed, the specialized tables of critical points which are needed to perform the tests have been derived for the location-scale model; hence, reliance on available significance points in the context of regression models may cause size distortions. We propose a general solution to the problem of controlling the size of normality tests for the…
