单位根过程的状态空间规范形式AI 解读

In this paper we develop a canonical state space representation of autoregressive moving average (ARMA) processes with unit roots with integer integration orders at arbitrary unit root frequencies. The developed representation utilizes a state process with a particularly simple dynamic structure, which in turn renders this representation highly suitable for unit root, cointegration, and polynomial cointegration analysis. We also propose a new definition of polynomial…

一类马尔可夫乘法误差模型的条件均值失拟检验AI 解读

Abstract The family of multiplicative error models, introduced by Engle (2002, Journal of Applied Econometrics 17, 425–446), has attracted considerable attention in recent literature for modeling positive random variables, such as the duration between trades at a stock exchange, volume transactions, and squared log returns. Such models are also applicable to other positive variables such as waiting time in a queue, daily/hourly rainfall, and demand for electricity. This…

条件矩限制下的弱识别稳健检验AI 解读

Abstract We propose a semiparametric test for the value of coefficients in models with conditional moment restrictions that has correct size regardless of identification strength. The test is in essence an Anderson-Rubin (AR) test using nonparametrically estimated instruments to which we apply a standard error correction. We show that the test is (1) always size-correct, (2) consistent when identification is not too weak, and (3) asymptotically equivalent to an infeasible AR…

基于广义经验似然隐含概率的结构变化检验AI 解读

This paper proposes Pearson-type statistics based on implied probabilities to detect structural change. The class of generalized empirical likelihood estimators (see Smith 1997, The Economic Journal 107, 503–519) assigns a set of implied probabilities to each observation such that moment conditions are satisfied. The proposed test statistics for structural change are based on the information content in these implied probabilities. We consider cases of structural change with…

阿基米德 Copula 与时间依赖AI 解读

We study the dependence properties of stationary Markov chains generated by Archimedean copulas. Under some simple regularity conditions, we show that regular variation of the Archimedean generator at zero and one implies geometric ergodicity of the associated Markov chain. We verify our assumptions for a range of Archimedean copulas used in applications.

空间自回归模型的相关结构AI 解读

This paper investigates how the correlations implied by a first-order simultaneous autoregressive (SAR(1)) process are affected by the weights matrix and the autocorrelation parameter. A graph theoretic representation of the covariances in terms of walks connecting the spatial units helps to clarify a number of correlation properties of the processes. In particular, we study some implications of row-standardizing the weights matrix, the dependence of the correlations on…

经济约束下的回归变量降维：多商品需求系统AI 解读

Microeconomic theory often yields models with multiple nonlinear equations, nonseparable unobservables, nonlinear cross equation restrictions, and many potentially multicolinear covariates. We show how statistical dimension reduction techniques can be applied in models with these features. In particular, we consider estimation of derivatives of average structural functions in large consumer demand systems, which depend nonlinearly on the prices of many goods. Utility…

存在缺失观测的函数型数据设定检验AI 解读

Economic data are frequently generated by stochastic processes that can be modeled as realizations of random functions (functional data). This paper adapts the specification test for functional data developed by Bugni, Hall, Horowitz, and Neumann (2009, Econometrics Journal 12, S1–S18) to the presence of missing observations. By using a worst case scenario approach, our method is able to extract the information available in the observed portion of the data while being…

增广 HEGY 季节单位根检验AI 解读

In this paper we extend the large-sample results provided for the augmented Dickey–Fuller test by Said and Dickey (1984, Biometrika 71, 599–607) and Chang and Park (2002, Econometric Reviews 21, 431–447) to the case of the augmented seasonal unit root tests of Hylleberg, Engle, Granger, and Yoo (1990, Journal of Econometrics 44, 215–238), inter alia. Our analysis is performed under the same conditions on the innovations as in Chang and Park (2002), thereby allowing for…

非参数面板模型中截面不相关性的新诊断检验AI 解读

In this paper, we propose a new diagnostic test for residual cross-section uncorrelatedness (CU) in a nonparametric panel data model. The proposed nonparametric CU test is a nonparametric counterpart of an existing parametric cross-section dependence test proposed in Pesaran (2004, Cambridge Working paper in Economics 0435). Without assuming cross-section independence, we establish asymptotic distribution for the proposed test statistic for the case where both the…

GARCH 过程的秩估计AI 解读

We consider a rank-based technique for estimating generalized autoregressive conditionally heteroskedastic (GARCH) model parameters, some of which are scale transformations of conventional GARCH parameters. The estimators are obtained by minimizing a rank-based residual dispersion function similar to the one given in Jaeckel (1972, Annals of Mathematical Statistics 43, 1449–1458). They are useful for GARCH order selection and preliminary estimation. We give a limiting…

具有经典渐近性质的持久性及可能非平稳数据估计量AI 解读

This paper considers a moments-based nonlinear estimator that is $\root \of T $ -consistent and uniformly asymptotically normal irrespective of the degree of persistence of the forcing process. These properties hold for linear autoregressive models, linear predictive regressions, and certain nonlinear dynamic models. Asymptotic normality is obtained because the moments are chosen so that the objective function is uniformly bounded in probability and so that a central limit…

近历依赖下局部线性拟合的一致收敛及其速率AI 解读

Local linear fitting is a popular nonparametric method in statistical and econometric modeling. Lu and Linton (2007, Econometric Theory 23, 37–70) established the pointwise asymptotic distribution for the local linear estimator of a nonparametric regression function under the condition of near epoch dependence. In this paper, we further investigate the uniform consistency of this estimator. The uniform strong and weak consistencies with convergence rates for the local linear…

有限或无限方差 ARMA 模型的全局加权最小绝对偏差估计AI 解读

This paper investigates the global self-weighted least absolute deviation (SLAD) estimator for finite and infinite variance ARMA( p , q ) models. The strong consistency and asymptotic normality of the global SLAD estimator are obtained. A simulation study is carried out to assess the performance of the global SLAD estimators. In this paper the asymptotic theory of the global LAD estimator for finite and infinite variance ARMA( p , q ) models is established in the literature…

矩限制非线性模型的全局识别AI 解读

This paper derives sufficient conditions for global identification in nonlinear models characterized by a finite number of unconditional moment restrictions. The main contribution of this paper is to provide a set of assumptions that are alternative to those of Gale-Nikaidô-Fisher-Rothenberg, and which when satisfied guarantee that the moment conditions globally identify the parameters of interest.

带漂移随机游走指数的和AI 解读

For many time series in empirical macro and finance, it is assumed that the logarithm of the series is a unit root process. Since we may want to assume a stable growth rate for the macroeconomics time series, it seems natural to potentially model such a series as a unit root process with drift. This assumption implies that the level of such a time series is the exponential of a unit root process with drift and therefore, it is of substantial interest to investigate…

Kotlarski 引理的若干扩展AI 解读

This note demonstrates that the conditions of Kotlarski’s (1967, Pacific Journal of Mathematics 20(1), 69–76) lemma can be substantially relaxed. In particular, the condition that the characteristic functions of M , U 1 , and U 2 are nonvanishing can be replaced with much weaker conditions: The characteristic function of U 1 can be allowed to have real zeros, as long as the derivative of its characteristic function at those points is not also zero; that of U 2 can have an…

单指标分位数回归模型及其估计AI 解读

Models with single-index structures are among the many existing popular semiparametric approaches for either the conditional mean or the conditional variance. This paper focuses on a single-index model for the conditional quantile. We propose an adaptive estimation procedure and an iterative algorithm which, under mild regularity conditions, is proved to converge with probability 1. The resulted estimator of the single-index parametric vector is root- n consistent,…

依赖数据下逆密度加权期望的 k 近邻估计AI 解读

This paper considers the problem of estimating expected values of functions that are inversely weighted by an unknown density using the k -nearest neighbor ( k -NN) method. It establishes the $\root \of T $ -consistency and the asymptotic normality of an estimator that allows for strictly stationary time-series data. The consistency of the Bartlett estimator of the derived asymptotic variance is also established. The proposed estimator is also shown to be asymptotically…

多元扩散过程的自适应 LASSO 型估计AI 解读

The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) is a widely used statistical methodology for simultaneous estimation and variable selection. It is a shrinkage estimation method that allows one to select parsimonious models. In other words, this method estimates the redundant parameters as zero in the large samples and reduces variance of estimates. In recent years, many authors analyzed this technique from a theoretical and applied point of view. We introduce and…

分位数 Granger 因果关系的一致非参数检验AI 解读

This paper proposes a nonparametric test of Granger causality in quantile. Zheng (1998, Econometric Theory 14, 123–138) studied the idea to reduce the problem of testing a quantile restriction to a problem of testing a particular type of mean restriction in independent data. We extend Zheng’s approach to the case of dependent data, particularly to the test of Granger causality in quantile. Combining the results of Zheng (1998) and Fan and Li (1999, Journal of Nonparametric…

高频投资组合贝塔稳定性的序贯检验AI 解读

Despite substantial criticism, variants of the capital asset pricing model (CAPM) remain to this day the primary statistical tools for portfolio managers to assess the performance of financial assets. In the CAPM, the risk of an asset is expressed through its correlation with the market, widely known as the beta. There is now a general consensus among economists that these portfolio betas are time-varying and that, consequently, any appropriate analysis has to take this…

面板数据中时间趋势异质性的新估计方法AI 解读

This paper introduces a new estimation method for arbitrary temporal heterogeneity in panel data models. The paper provides a semiparametric method for estimating general patterns of cross-sectional specific time trends. The methods proposed in the paper are related to principal component analysis and estimate the time-varying trend effects using a small number of common functions calculated from the data. An important application for the new estimator is in the estimation…

广义可加交互非线性波动模型的局部工具变量估计AI 解读

In this article we consider a new separable nonparametric volatility model that includes second-order interaction terms in both mean and conditional variance functions. This is a very flexible nonparametric ARCH model that can potentially explain the behavior of the wide variety of financial assets. The model is estimated using the generalized version of the local instrumental variable estimation method first introduced in Kim and Linton (2004, Econometric Theory 20,…
