Statistical inference for four-regime segmented regression models
四区制分段回归模型的统计推断
Segmented regression models offer model flexibility and interpretability as compared to the global parametric and the nonparametric models, and yet are challenging in both estimation and inference. We consider a four-regime segmented model for temporally dependent data with segmenting boundaries depending on multivariate covariates with nondiminishing boundary effects. A mixed integer quadratic programming algorithm is formulated to facilitate the least square estimation of…
