样本选择模型中的稳健推断AI 解读

Summary The problem of non-random sample selectivity often occurs in practice in many fields. The classical estimators introduced by Heckman are the backbone of the standard statistical analysis of these models. However, these estimators are very sensitive to small deviations from the distributional assumptions which are often not satisfied in practice. We develop a general framework to study the robustness properties of estimators and tests in sample selection models. We…

具有参数模型特征的局部多项式分位数回归AI 解读

We propose a new approach to conditional quantile function estimation that combines both parametric and nonparametric techniques. At each design point, a global, possibly incorrect, pilot parametric model is locally adjusted through a kernel smoothing fit. The resulting quantile regression estimator behaves like a parametric estimator when the latter is correct and converges to the nonparametric solution as the parametric start deviates from the true underlying model. We…
