Testing Parametric versus Semiparametric Modeling in Generalized Linear Models
广义线性模型中参数与半参数设定的检验
We consider a generalized partially linear model E(Y|X, T) = G{X T β + m(T)}, where G is a known function, β is an unknown parameter vector, and m is an unknown function. We introduce a test statistic that allows one to decide between a parametric and a semiparametric model: (a) m is linear (i.e., m(t) = t T γ for a parameter vector γ), and (b) m is a smooth (nonlinear) function. Under linearity (a), we show that the test statistic is asymptotically normal. Moreover, we…
