幂核异方差与自相关稳健检验的检验力最大化和尺寸控制AI 解读

Using the power kernels of Phillips, Sun, and Jin (2006, 2007), we examine the large sample asymptotic properties of the t -test for different choices of power parameter ( ρ ). We show that the nonstandard fixed- ρ limit distributions of the t -statistic provide more accurate approximations to the finite sample distributions than the conventional large- ρ limit distribution. We prove that the second-order corrected critical value based on an asymptotic expansion of the…

采用级数方差估计与检验最优平滑参数的稳健趋势推断AI 解读

The paper develops a novel testing procedure for hypotheses on deterministic trends in a multivariate trend stationary model. The trends are estimated by the OLS estimator and the long run variance (LRV) matrix is estimated by a series type estimator with carefully selected basis functions. Regardless of whether the number of basis functions K is fixed or grows with the sample size, the Wald statistic converges to a standard distribution. It is shown that critical values…

短面板向量自回归中脉冲响应函数的渐近分布AI 解读

This paper establishes the asymptotic distributions of the impulse response functions in panel vector autoregressions with a fixed time dimension. It also proves the asymptotic validity of a bootstrap approximation to their sampling distributions. The autoregressive parameters are estimated using the GMM estimators based on the first differenced equations and the error variance is estimated using an extended analysis-of-variance type estimator. Contrary to the time series…

空间异方差与自相关一致的协方差矩阵估计AI 解读

This paper considers spatial heteroskedasticity and autocorrelation consistent (spatial HAC) estimation of covariance matrices of parameter estimators. We generalize the spatial HAC estimator introduced by Kelejian and Prucha (2007) to apply to linear and nonlinear spatial models with moment conditions. We establish its consistency, rate of convergence and asymptotic truncated mean squared error (MSE). Based on the asymptotic truncated MSE criterion, we derive the optimal…

异方差与自相关稳健检验中的最优带宽选择AI 解读

In time series regressions with nonparametrically autocorrelated errors, it is now standard empirical practice to use kernel-based robust standard errors that involve some smoothing function over the sample autocorrelations. The underlying smoothing parameter b, which can be defined as the ratio of the bandwidth (or truncation lag) to the sample size, is a tuning parameter that plays a key role in determining the asymptotic properties of the standard errors and associated…

The standard Tobit maximum likelihood estimator under zero censoring threshold produces inconsistent parameter estimates, when the constant censoring threshold γ is non-zero and unknown. Unfortunately, the recording of a zero rather than the actual censoring threshold value is typical of economic data. Non-trivial minimum purchase prices for most goods, fixed cost for doing business or trading, social customs such as those involving charitable donations, and informal…

不增加方差的长记忆参数偏差缩减对数周期图与 Whittle 估计AI 解读

The bias-reduced log-periodogram estimator of Andrews and Guggenberger (2003, Econometrica 71, 675–712) for the long-memory parameter d in a stationary long-memory time series reduces the asymptotic bias of the original log-periodogram estimator of Geweke and Porter-Hudak (1983) by an order of magnitude but inflates the asymptotic variance by a multiplicative constant cr, for example, c1 = 2.25 and c2 = 3.52. In this paper, we introduce a new, computationally attractive…

非平稳面板时间序列长期平均关系的估计AI 解读

This paper proposes a new class of estimators of the long-run average relationship in nonstationary panel time series. The estimators are based on the long-run average variance estimate using bandwidth equal to T. The new estimators include the pooled least squares estimator and the fixed effects estimator as special cases. It is shown that the new estimators are consistent and asymptotically normal under both the sequential limit, wherein T → ∞ followed by n → ∞, and the…

理解费雪方程AI 解读

Abstract It is argued that univariate long memory estimates based on ex post data tend to underestimate the persistence of ex ante variables (and, hence, that of the ex post variables themselves) because of the presence of unanticipated shocks whose short‐run volatility masks the degree of long‐range dependence in the data. Empirical estimates of long‐range dependence in the Fisher equation are shown to manifest this problem and lead to an apparent imbalance in the memory…

伪回归中具有极限分布的 t 统计量AI 解读

This paper investigates the asymptotic properties of the t-statistic in spurious regressions when the bandwidth in the estimation of the heteroskedasticity and autocorrelation consistent (HAC) standard error is set proportional to the sample size. Using autocovariances of large lags, the so-defined HAC estimator is capable of capturing the high persistence of the regressor and regression residuals. It is shown that the resulting t-statistic converges to a nondegenerate…

The local Whittle (or Gaussian semiparametric) estimator of long range dependence, proposed by Kunsch (1987) and analyzed by Robinson (1995a), has a relatively slow rate of convergence and a finite sample bias that can be large. In this paper, we generalize the local Whittle estimator to circumvent these problems. Instead of approximating the short-run component of the spectrum, phi(lambda), by a constant in a shrinking neighborhood of frequency zero, we approximate its…
