线性过程加权和的渐近正态性AI 解读

We establish asymptotic normality of weighted sums of linear processes with general triangular array weights and when the innovations in the linear process are martingale differences. The results are obtained under minimal conditions on the weights and innovations. We also obtain weak convergence of weighted partial sum processes. The results are applicable to linear processes that have short or long memory or exhibit seasonal long memory behavior. In particular, they are…

金融市场中的右尾信息AI 解读

It is well known that when investors evaluate risk or opportunity, they often depart from predictions of expected utility. In addition, for both academic and financial communities it is a familiar stylized fact that stock return distributions are not normal. Both empirical evidence and experimental evidence indicate that distributional information of asset returns has an important impact on investors. In this paper, we argue that the right-tail distributional information of…

密度加权平均导数的小带宽渐近理论AI 解读

This paper proposes (apparently) novel standard error formulas for the density-weighted average derivative estimator of Powell, Stock, and Stoker ( Econometrica 57, 1989). Asymptotic validity of the standard errors developed in this paper does not require the use of higher-order kernels, and the standard errors are “robust” in the sense that they accommodate (but do not require) bandwidths that are smaller than those for which conventional standard errors are valid.…

含测量误差时间序列的持续性与自相关函数估计AI 解读

An economic time series can often be viewed as a noisy proxy for an underlying economic variable. Measurement errors will influence the dynamic properties of the observed process and may conceal the persistence of the underlying time series. In this paper we develop instrumental variable (IV) methods for extracting information about the latent process. Our framework can be used to estimate the autocorrelation function of the latent volatility process and a key persistence…

X 差分与动态面板模型估计AI 解读

This paper introduces a new estimation method for dynamic panel models with fixed effects and AR( p ) idiosyncratic errors. The proposed estimator uses a novel form of systematic differencing, called X-differencing, that eliminates fixed effects and retains information and signal strength in cases where there is a root at or near unity. The resulting “panel fully aggregated” estimator (PFAE) is obtained by pooled least squares on the system of X-differenced equations. The…

动态模型中的测量误差AI 解读

Static models that are not identifiable in the presence of white noise measurement errors are known to be potentially identifiable when the model has dynamics. However, few results are available for the plausible case of serially correlated measurement errors. This paper provides order and rank conditions for “limited information” identification of parameters in dynamic models with measurement errors where some aspects of the probability model are not fully specified or…

持续性周期对零频率单位根检验的影响AI 解读

In this paper we investigate the impact of persistent (nonstationary or near nonstationary) cycles on the asymptotic and finite-sample properties of standard unit root tests. Results are presented for the augmented Dickey–Fuller (ADF) normalized bias and t -ratio-based tests (Dickey and Fuller, 1979, Journal of the American Statistical Association 745, 427–431; Said and Dickey, 1984; Biometrika 71, 599–607). the variance ratio unit root test of Breitung (2002, Journal of…

非平稳自回归中利用虚拟变量处理无限方差创新AI 解读

We consider estimation and testing in finite-order autoregressive models with a (near) unit root and infinite-variance innovations. We study the asymptotic properties of estimators obtained by dummying out “large” innovations, i.e., those exceeding a given threshold. These estimators reflect the common practice of dealing with large residuals by including impulse dummies in the estimated regression. Iterative versions of the dummy-variable estimator are also discussed. We…

含高维协变量的广义可加部分线性模型AI 解读

This paper studies generalized additive partial linear models with high-dimensional covariates. We are interested in which components (including parametric and nonparametric components) are nonzero. The additive nonparametric functions are approximated by polynomial splines. We propose a doubly penalized procedure to obtain an initial estimate and then use the adaptive least absolute shrinkage and selection operator to identify nonzero components and to obtain the final…

交互固定效应面板模型中的同质性检验AI 解读

This paper proposes a residual-based Lagrange Multiplier (LM) test for slope homogeneity in large-dimensional panel data models with interactive fixed effects. We first run the panel regression under the null to obtain the restricted residuals and then use them to construct our LM test statistic. We show that after being appropriately centered and scaled, our test statistic is asymptotically normally distributed under the null and a sequence of Pitman local alternatives. The…

存在水平变化与确定性趋势时的记忆参数估计AI 解读

We propose estimators of the memory parameter of a time series that are robust to a wide variety of random level shift processes, deterministic level shifts, and deterministic time trends. The estimators are simple trimmed versions of the popular log-periodogram regression estimator that employ certain sample-size-dependent and, in some cases, data-dependent trimmings that discard low-frequency components. We also show that a previously developed trimmed local Whittle…

非线性协整向量误差修正模型中的检验与推断AI 解读

We analyze estimators and tests for a general class of vector error correction models that allows for asymmetric and nonlinear error correction. For a given number of cointegration relationships, general hypothesis testing is considered, where testing for linearity is of particular interest. Under the null of linearity, parameters of nonlinear components vanish, leading to a nonstandard testing problem. We apply so-called sup-tests to resolve this issue, which requires…

非恒定长记忆参数的检测AI 解读

This article deals with detection of a nonconstant long memory parameter in time series. The null hypothesis presumes stationary or nonstationary time series with a constant long memory parameter, typically an I ( d ) series with d > −.5 . The alternative corresponds to an increase in persistence and includes in particular an abrupt or gradual change from I ( d 1 ) to I ( d 2 ), −.5 < d 1 < d 2 . We discuss several test statistics based on the ratio of forward and backward…

非参数删失回归分位数的全局 Bahadur 表示及其应用AI 解读

This paper is concerned with the nonparametric estimation of regression quantiles of a response variable that is randomly censored. Using results on the strong uniform convergence rate of U-processes, we derive a global Bahadur representation for a class of locally weighted polynomial estimators, which is sufficiently accurate for many further theoretical analyses including inference. Implications of our results are demonstrated through the study of the asymptotic properties…

具有一致矩条件选择的自适应 GMM 收缩估计AI 解读

This paper proposes a generalized method of moments (GMM) shrinkage method to efficiently estimate the unknown parameters θ o identified by some moment restrictions, when there is another set of possibly misspecified moment conditions. We show that our method enjoys oracle-like properties; i.e., it consistently selects the correct moment conditions in the second set and at the same time, its estimator is as efficient as the GMM estimator based on all correct moment…

非线性估计量的 Edgeworth 展开与鞍点展开AI 解读

Simple methods are developed for deriving Edgeworth, saddlepoint, and related expansions for the estimators of multivariate and nonlinear models. Illustrations are provided. Simulations are reported indicating the methods work well compared to standard asymptotic and bootstrapped approaches.

含估计参数的上确界范数拟合优度检验：不同方法的比较AI 解读

Goodness-of-fit tests based on parametric empirical processes have nonstandard limiting distributions when the null hypothesis is composite — that is, when parameters of the null model are estimated. Several analytic solutions to this problem have been suggested, including the calculation of adjusted critical values for these nonstandard distributions and the transformation of the empirical process such that statistics based on the transformed process are asymptotically…

具有 ARCH(1) 误差的 AR(1) 模型的尾指数AI 解读

Relevant sample quantities such as the sample autocorrelation function and extremes contain useful information about autoregressive time series with heteroskedastic errors. As these quantities usually depend on the tail index of the underlying heteroskedastic time series, estimating the tail index becomes an important task. Since the tail index of such a model is determined by a moment equation, one can estimate the underlying tail index by solving the sample moment equation…

加速失效时间竞争风险模型的非参数识别AI 解读

We provide new conditions for identification of accelerated failure time competing risks models. These include Roy models and some auction models. In our setup, unknown regression functions and the joint survivor function of latent disturbance terms are all nonparametric. We show that this model is identified given covariates that are independent of latent errors, provided that a certain rank condition is satisfied. We present a simple example in which our rank condition for…

面板向量自回归过程的多步预测AI 解读

This paper considers the conventional recursive (otherwise known as plug-in) and direct multistep forecasts in a panel vector autoregressive framework. We derive asymptotic expressions for the mean square prediction error (MSPE) of both forecasts as N (cross sections) and T (time periods) grow large. Both the bias and variance of the least squares fitting are manifest in the MSPE. Using these expressions, we consider the effect of model specification on predictor accuracy.…

时间序列条件分位数的非参数推断AI 解读

This paper considers model-free hypothesis testing and confidence interval construction for conditional quantiles of time series. A new method, which is based on inversion of the smoothed empirical likelihood of the conditional distribution function around the local polynomial estimator, is proposed. The associated inferential procedures do not require variance estimation, and the confidence intervals are automatically shaped by data. We also construct the bias-corrected…

无限方差时间序列的预期损失估计与推断AI 解读

We study estimation and inference of the expected shortfall for time series with infinite variance. Both the smoothed and nonsmoothed estimators are investigated. The rate of convergence is determined by the tail thickness parameter, and the limiting distribution is in the stable class with parameters depending on the tail thickness parameter of the time series and on the dependence structure, which makes inference complicated. A subsampling procedure is proposed to carry…

具有共同爆炸根的 VAR 回归的不一致性AI 解读

Nielsen (Working paper, University of Oxford, 2009) shows that vector autoregression is inconsistent when there are common explosive roots with geometric multiplicity greater than unity. This paper discusses that result, provides a coexplosive system extension and an illustrative example that helps to explain the finding, gives a consistent instrumental variable procedure, and reports some simulations. Some exact limit distribution theory is derived and a useful new reverse…

考虑估计误差调整的风险价值AI 解读

Standard risk measures, such as the value-at-risk (VaR), or the expected shortfall, have to be estimated, and their estimated counterparts are subject to estimation uncertainty. Replacing, in the theoretical formulas, the true parameter value by an estimator based on n observations of the profit and loss variable induces an asymptotic bias of order 1/ n in the coverage probabilities. This paper shows how to correct for this bias by introducing a new estimator of the VaR,…
