基于 Spearman 相关矩阵的高维因子数稳健估计AI 解读

Determining the number of factors in high-dimensional factor modeling is essential but challenging, especially when the data are heavy-tailed. In this article, we introduce a new estimator based on the spectral properties of Spearman sample correlation matrix under the high-dimensional setting, where both dimension and sample size tend to infinity proportionally. Our estimator is robust against heavy tails in either the common factors or idiosyncratic errors. The consistency…

维数与样本量之比趋于无穷时样本协方差特征值统计量的渐近正态性及应用AI 解读

The asymptotic normality for a large family of eigenvalue statistics of a general sample covariance matrix is derived under the ultrahigh-dimensional setting, that is, when the dimension to sample size ratio p/n→∞. Based on this CLT result, we extend the covariance matrix test problem to the new ultra-high-dimensional context, and apply it to test a matrix-valued white noise. Simulation experiments are conducted for the investigation of finite-sample properties of the…

高维 Kendall 秩相关矩阵线性谱统计量的中心极限定理及应用AI 解读

This paper is concerned with the limiting spectral behaviors of large dimensional Kendall’s rank correlation matrices generated by samples with independent and continuous components. The statistical setting in this paper covers a wide range of highly skewed and heavy-tailed distributions since we do not require the components to be identically distributed, and do not need any moment conditions. We establish the central limit theorem (CLT) for the linear spectral statistics…

广义尖峰总体模型中大样本协方差矩阵极端特征值与迹的联合渐近分布AI 解读

This paper studies the joint limiting behavior of extreme eigenvalues and trace of large sample covariance matrix in a generalized spiked population model, where the asymptotic regime is such that the dimension and sample size grow proportionally. The form of the joint limiting distribution is applied to conduct Johnson–Graybill-type tests, a family of approaches testing for signals in a statistical model. For this, higher order correction is further made, helping alleviate…

高维白噪声检验AI 解读

Testing for white noise is a classical yet important problem in statistics, especially for diagnostic checks in time series modeling and linear regression. For high-dimensional time series in the sense that the dimension $p$ is large in relation to the sample size $T$, the popular omnibus tests including the multivariate Hosking and Li–McLeod tests are extremely conservative, leading to substantial power loss. To develop more relevant tests for high-dimensional cases, we…

利用大型样本自协方差矩阵的奇异值识别因子数量AI 解读

Identifying the number of factors in a high-dimensional factor model has attracted much attention in recent years and a general solution to the problem is still lacking. A promising ratio estimator based on singular values of lagged sample auto-covariance matrices has been recently proposed in the literature with a reasonably good performance under some specific assumption on the strength of the factors. Inspired by this ratio estimator and as a first main contribution, this…
