局部单位根回归的自加权估计及应用AI 解读

A new self-weighted (SW) least squares (LS) estimation approach is developed for local unit root (LUR) autoregression with conditionally heteroskedastic innovations. Asymptotically controlled trimming of the most extreme observations in LS regression is shown to lead to mixed Gaussian limit theory and studentization produces standard normality free of the unknown LUR parameter. The estimator is super consistent with a convergence rate slightly below the O P ( n ) $O_P(n)$ upp…

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…

函数系数回归与气候敏感性分析的新渐近理论AI 解读

A general asymptotic theory is established for sample cross moments of nonstationary time series, allowing for long-range dependence and local unit roots. The theory provides a substantial extension of earlier results on nonparametric regression that include near-cointegrated nonparametric regression as well as spurious nonparametric regression. Many new models are covered by the limit theory, among which are functional coefficient regressions in which both regressors and…

非平稳时间序列非线性泛函的一般极限理论AI 解读

New limit theory is provided for a wide class of sample variance and covariance functionals involving both nonstationary and stationary time series. Sample functionals of this type commonly appear in regression applications and the asymptotics are particularly relevant to estimation and inference in nonlinear nonstationary regressions that involve unit root, local unit root, or fractional processes. The limit theory is unusually general in that it covers both parametric and…

迈向轻度爆炸自回归的统一渐近理论AI 解读

Abstract This article provides a general asymptotic theory for mildly explosive autoregression. We confirm that Cauchy limit theory remains invariant across a broad range of error processes, including general linear processes with martingale difference innovations, stationary causal processes, and nonlinear autoregressive time series, such as threshold autoregressive and bilinear models. Our results unify the Cauchy limit theory for long memory, short memory, and…

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…

非线性协整回归的最优带宽选择AI 解读

We study optimal bandwidth selection in nonparametric cointegrating regression where the regressor is a stochastic trend process driven by short or long memory innovations. Unlike stationary regression, the optimal bandwidth is found to be a random sequence which depends on the sojourn time of the process. All random sequences $h_{n}$ that lie within a wide band of rates as the sample size $n\rightarrow \infty $ have the property that local level and local linear kernel…

含平稳协变量的分位数协整非参数推断AI 解读

This paper considers the inference problems in nonlinear quantile regressions with both stationary and nonstationary covariates. The nonparametric local constant quantile estimator is proposed to estimate the unknown quantile regression function, whose asymptotic properties are established under quite general conditions. Specification testing of the quantile regression function is further considered through a statistic constructed based on the integrated squared distance…

存在内生性的非线性协整幂函数回归AI 解读

This paper develops an asymptotic theory for nonlinear cointegrating power function regression. The framework extends earlier work on the deterministic trend case and allows for both endogeneity and heteroskedasticity, which makes the models and inferential methods relevant to many empirical economic and financial applications, including predictive regression. A new test for linear cointegration against nonlinear departures is developed based on a simple linearized…

异方差非线性回归模型的最小二乘估计AI 解读

This paper develops an asymptotic theory of nonlinear least squares estimation by establishing a new framework that can be easily applied to various nonlinear regression models with heteroscedasticity. As an illustration, we explore an application of the framework to nonlinear regression models with nonstationarity and heteroscedasticity. In addition to these main results, this paper provides a maximum inequality for a class of martingales, which is of interest in its own…

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…

温化线性过程驱动的近单整过程渐近理论AI 解读

In an early article on near-unit root autoregression, Ahtola and Tiao (1984) studied the behavior of the score function in a stationary first order autoregression driven by independent Gaussian innovations as the autoregressive coefficient approached unity from below. The present paper develops asymptotic theory for near-integrated random processes and associated regressions including the score function in more general settings where the errors are tempered linear processes.…

非线性协整回归的模型检验AI 解读

Using the marked empirical processes, this paper develops a test of parametric specification in a nonlinear cointegrating regression model. Unlike the kernel-smoothed U-statistic considered in Gao et al. (2009) and Wang and Phillips (2012), our new test statistic avoids the use of bandwidth, which has some advantages for practitioners. Simulations and a real data example show that our new test has a good finite sample performance. Other contributions of this paper are to…

非线性计量模型中原始条件下向随机积分的弱收敛AI 解读

Limit theory with stochastic integrals plays a major role in time series econometrics. In earlier contributions on weak convergence to stochastic integrals, the literature commonly uses martingale and semi-martingale structures. Liang, Phillips, Wang, and Wang (2016) (see also Wang (2015), Chap. 4.5) currently extended weak convergence to stochastic integrals by allowing for a linear process or a α -mixing sequence in innovations. While these martingale, linear process and α…

计量应用中向随机积分的弱收敛AI 解读

Limit theory involving stochastic integrals is now widespread in time series econometrics and relies on a few key results on functional weak convergence. In establishing such convergence, the literature commonly uses martingale and semimartingale structures. While these structures have wide relevance, many applications involve a cointegration framework where endogeneity and nonlinearity play major roles and complicate the limit theory. This paper explores weak convergence…

存在内生性与长记忆的非参数协整回归AI 解读

This paper explores nonparametric estimation, inference, and specification testing in a nonlinear cointegrating regression model where the structural equation errors are serially dependent and where the regressor is endogenous and may be driven by long memory innovations. Generalizing earlier results of Wang and Phillips (2009a,b, Econometric Theory 25, 710–738, Econometrica 77, 1901–1948), the conventional nonparametric local level kernel estimator is shown to be consistent…

非平稳数据的非参数变换回归AI 解读

We examine a kernel regression estimator for time series that takes account of the error correlation structure as proposed by Xiao et al. (2003, Journal of the American Statistical Association 98, 980–992). We show that this method continues to improve estimation in the case where the regressor is a unit root or a near unit root process.

非平稳时间序列的非线性回归AI 解读

This paper develops asymptotic theory for a nonlinear parametric cointegrating regression model. We establish a general framework for weak consistency that is easy to apply for various nonstationary time series, including partial sums of linear processes and Harris recurrent Markov chains. We provide limit distributions for nonlinear least square estimators, extending the previous works. We also introduce endogeneity to the model by allowing the error to be serially…

非平稳数据下非参数估计量的一致收敛AI 解读

Sharp upper and lower uniform bounds are established for a general class of functionals of integrated and fractionally integrated time series. The main result is used to develop optimal uniform convergence for the Nadaraya-Watson estimator and the local linear nonparametric estimator in a nonlinear cointegrating regression model. Unlike the point-wise situation, it is shown that the performance of the local linear nonparametric estimator is superior to that of the…

鞅极限定理再探与非线性协整回归AI 解读

For a certain class of martingales, convergence to a mixture of normal distributions is established under convergence in distribution for the conditional variance. This is less restrictive in comparison with the classical martingale limit theorem, where one generally requires convergence in probability. The extension partially removes a barrier in the applications of the classical martingale limit theorem to nonparametric estimation and inference with nonstationarity and…

含非线性非平稳异方差误差的非参数协整回归AI 解读

This paper studies a nonlinear cointegrating regression model with nonlinear nonstationary heteroskedastic error processes. We establish uniform consistency for the conventional kernel estimate of the unknown regression function and develop atwo-stage approach for the estimation of the heterogeneity generating function.

非线性非平稳模型的设定检验AI 解读

We provide a limit theory for a general class of kernel smoothed U-statistics that may be used for specification testing in time series regression with nonstationary data. The test framework allows for linear and nonlinear models with endogenous regressors that have autoregressive unit roots or near unit roots. The limit theory for the specification test depends on the self-intersection local time of a Gaussian process. A new weak convergence result is developed for certain…

零能量泛函的渐近理论及非参数回归应用AI 解读

A local limit theorem is given for the sample mean of a zero energy function of a nonstationary time series involving twin numerical sequences that pass to infinity. The result is applicable in certain nonparametric kernel density estimation and regression problems where the relevant quantities are functions of both sample size and bandwidth. An interesting outcome of the theory in nonparametric regression is that the linear term is eliminated from the asymptotic bias. In…

长程依赖非线性时间序列的设定检验AI 解读

This paper proposes a model specification testing procedure for parametric specification of the conditional mean function in a nonlinear time series model with long-range dependent. An asymptotically normal test is established even when long-range dependent is involved. To implement the proposed test in practice using a simulated example, a bootstrap simulation procedure is established to find a simulated critical value to compute both the size and power values of the…
