弱因子增强回归模型的偏差校正AI 解读

In this paper, we study the asymptotic bias of the factor-augmented regression estimator and its reduction, which is augmented by the $r$ factors extracted from a large number of $N$ variables with $T$ observations. In particular, we consider general weak latent factor models with $r$ signal eigenvalues that may diverge at different rates, $N^{α_{k}}$, $0<α_{k}\leq 1$, $k=1,\dots,r$. In the existing literature, the bias has been derived using an approximation for the…

大型向量自回归模型中的网络格兰杰因果关系发现AI 解读

This article proposes novel inferential procedures for discovering the network Granger causality in highdimensional vector autoregressive models.In particular, we mainly offer two multiple testing procedures designed to control the false discovery rate (FDR).The first procedure is based on the limiting normal distribution of the t-statistics with the debiased lasso estimator.The second procedure is its bootstrap version.We also provide a robustification of the first…

由后验揭示先验：英国通胀预测的应用AI 解读

Summary A Bayesian typically uses data and a prior to produce a posterior. We shall follow the opposite route, using data and the posterior information to reveal the prior. We then apply this theory to inflation forecasts by the Bank of England and the National Institute of Economic and Social Research in an attempt to get some insight into the prior beliefs of the policy makers in these two institutions, especially under the uncertainties about the Brexit referendum, the…

稀疏性诱导的弱因子模型估计AI 解读

This article investigates estimation of sparsity-induced weak factor (sWF) models, with large cross-sectional and time-series dimensions (N and T, respectively). It assumes that the kth largest eigenvalue of a data covariance matrix grows proportionally to Nαk with unknown exponents 0<αk≤1 for k=1,…,r. Employing the same rotation of the principal components (PC) estimator, the growth rate αk is linked to the degree of sparsity of kth factor loadings. This is much weaker than…

稀疏性诱导的弱因子模型推断AI 解读

In this article, we consider statistical inference for high-dimensional approximate factor models. We posit a weak factor structure, in which the factor loading matrix can be sparse and the signal eigenvalues may diverge more slowly than the cross-sectional dimension, N. We propose a novel inferential procedure to decide whether each component of the factor loadings is zero or not, and prove that this controls the false discovery rate (FDR) below a preassigned level, while…

动态面板同期相关的异方差稳健 Breusch–Pagan 检验AI 解读

This paper proposes a heteroskedasticity-robust Breusch–Pagan test of the null hypothesis of zero cross-section (or contemporaneous) correlation in linear panel data models, without necessarily assuming independence of the cross-sections. The procedure allows for either fixed, strictly exogenous and/or lagged dependent regressor variables, as well as quite general forms of both non-normality and heteroskedasticity in the error distribution. The asymptotic validity of the…

多因子误差结构下的面板单位根检验AI 解读

This paper extends the cross-sectionally augmented panel unit root test (CIPS) proposed by Pesaran (2007) to the case of a multifactor error structure, and proposes a new panel unit root test based on a simple average of cross-sectionally augmented Sargan–Bhargava statistics (CSB). The basic idea is to exploit information regarding the m unobserved factors that are shared by k observed time series in addition to the series under consideration. Initially, we develop the tests…
