面板数据似然中得分偏差与信息偏差的作用AI 解读

We show why reducing information bias can improve the performance of likelihood based estimators and confidence regions in small samples, and why it seems to matter more for inference than for estimation. The insights in this paper are helpful in explaining several simulation findings in the panel data literature. E.g., we can explain the well documented phenomenon that reducing the score bias alone often reduces the finite sample variance of estimators and improves the…

含未观测效应的非线性面板模型的积分似然推断AI 解读

We propose a new integrated likelihood based approach for estimating panel data models when the unobserved individual effects enter the model nonlinearly. Unlike existing integrated likelihoods in the literature, the one we propose is closer to a genuine likelihood. Although the statistical theory for the proposed estimator is developed in an asymptotic setting where the number of individuals and the number of time periods both approach infinity, results from a simulation…

含内生解释变量的非参数线性模型中的若干识别问题AI 解读

In applied work economists often seek to relate a given response variable y to some causal parameter μ* associated with it. This parameter usually represents a summarization based on some explanatory variables of the distribution of y, such as a regression function, and treating it as a conditional expectation is central to its identification and estimation. However, the interpretation of μ* as a conditional expectation breaks down if some or all of the explanatory variables…

聚类数据的扩展广义估计方程AI 解读

Typically, analysis of data consisting of multiple observations on a cluster is complicated by within-cluster correlation. Estimating equations for generalized linear modeling of clustered data have recently received much attention. This article proposes an extension to the generalized estimating equation method proposed by Liang and Zeger, which treats within-cluster correlations as nuisance parameters. Using ideas from extended quasi-likelihood, estimating equations for…
