空间自回归模型的迁移学习：美国总统选举预测应用AI 解读

It is important to incorporate spatial geographic information into U.S. presidential election analysis, especially for swing states. The state-level analysis also faces significant challenges of limited spatial data availability. To address the challenges of spatial dependence and small sample sizes in predicting U.S. presidential election results using spatially dependent data, we propose a novel transfer learning framework within the SAR model, called as tranSAR. Classical…

集中化 MCMC 估计AI 解读

This paper studies a concentrated Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) estimation method that offers significant computational advantages while delivering valid inference for parameters of interest. By reducing the dimension of parameters to be sampled, this method substantially decreases computational time and memory usage relative to both traditional and some state-of-the-art Bayesian algorithms. Its applicability extends to correctly specified or misspecified likelihood…

空间自回归模型的稳健估计AI 解读

This article proposes and studies two Huber-type estimation approaches, namely, the Huber instrumental variable (IV) estimation and the Huber generalized method of moments (GMM) estimation, for a spatial autoregressive model. We establish the consistency, asymptotic distributions, finite sample breakdown points, and influence functions of these estimators. Simulation studies show that compared to the corresponding traditional estimators (the two-stage least squares…

函数依赖在空间计量经济学中的应用AI 解读

In this paper, we generalize the concept of functional dependence (FD) from time series (see Wu [2005, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences 102, 14150–14154]) and stationary random fields (see El Machkouri, Volný, and Wu [2013, Stochastic Processes and Their Applications 123, 1–14]) to nonstationary spatial processes. Within conventional settings in spatial econometrics, we define the concept of spatial FD measure and establish a moment inequality, an exponential…

空间动态面板中潜在群组结构的识别AI 解读

This paper considers the identification of latent group structures in spatial dynamic panels. We follow Lee and Yu (2010) and consider a rich spatial dynamic panel data (SDPD) model with two-way fixed effects. In addition, we also allow for latent panel structures where individuals can be classified into a few groups such that individuals within the same group share the common slope parameters and do not otherwise. Both the number of groups and the individuals’ group…

空间计量模型贝叶斯估计的大样本性质AI 解读

This paper studies asymptotic properties of a posterior probability density and Bayesian estimators of spatial econometric models in the classical statistical framework. We focus on the high-order spatial autoregressive model with spatial autoregressive disturbance terms, due to a computational advantage of Bayesian estimation. We also study the asymptotic properties of Bayesian estimation of the spatial autoregressive Tobit model, as an example of nonlinear spatial models.…

空间自回归 Tobit 模型的筛最大似然估计AI 解读

This paper extends the ML estimation of a spatial autoregressive Tobit model under normal disturbances in Xu and Lee (2015b, Journal of Econometrics) to distribution-free estimation. We examine the sieve MLE of the model, where the disturbances are i.i.d.with an unknown distribution. We show that the spatial autoregressive process with Tobit censoring and related variables are spatial near-epoch dependent (NED). A related contribution is that we develop some exponential…

空间自回归Tobit模型的最大似然估计AI 解读

This paper examines a Tobit model with spatial autoregressive interactions. We consider the maximum likelihood estimation for this model and analyze asymptotic properties of the estimator based on the spatial near-epoch dependence of the dependent variable process generated from the model structure. We show that the maximum likelihood estimator is consistent and asymptotically normally distributed. Monte Carlo experiments are performed to verify finite sample properties of…

因变量非线性变换的空间自回归模型AI 解读

This paper develops a nonlinear spatial autoregressive model. Of particular interest is a structural interaction model for share data. We consider possible instrumental variable (IV) and maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) for this model, and analyze asymptotic properties of the IV and MLE based on the notion of spatial near-epoch dependence. We also design a statistical test to compare the nonlinear transformation against alternatives. Monte Carlo experiments are designed…
