交互固定效应面板数据模型与（相对）小 TAI 解读

This paper studies the estimation of a linear panel data model with interactive fixed effects. A transformation is introduced which, after having been applied, renders the least squares (LS) estimator of Bai (2009) consistent and asymptotically unbiased when n is large and T is fixed. This is termed the transformed least squares (TLS) estimator. Going further, these properties are shown to also carry over to the large n, large T setting, provided T /n → 0. This contrasts…

高维面板数据模型的稳健估计与推断AI 解读

This paper provides the relevant literature with a complete toolkit for conducting robust estimation and inference about the parameters of interest involved in a high-dimensional panel data framework. Specifically, (1) we allow for non-Gaussian, serially and cross-sectionally correlated and heteroskedastic error processes, (2) we develop an estimation method for the high-dimensional long-run covariance matrix using a thresholded estimator, (3) we also allow for the number of…

基于离散傅里叶变换检验交互固定效应面板模型的结构变化AI 解读

We propose a discrete Fourier transform (DFT)-based test for detecting structural changes in panel data models with interactive fixed effects (IFE). When structural changes are present but ignored, the conventional asymptotic distribution of the least squares (LS) estimator of Bai (2009) may no longer provide reliable inference, and the resulting residuals contain signals of parameter instability. Our test exploits this feature by comparing the DFT of weighted residuals to…

异质性面板数据模型的估计及其在项目评估中的应用AI 解读

This article studies panel data models with two-dimensional unobserved slope heterogeneity and interactive fixed effects. We propose a two-step approach to estimate the parameters in the model. We apply the proposed model to estimate heterogeneous treatment effects at both individual and aggregate levels. Monte Carlo simulations show that the proposed estimators perform remarkably well in finite samples in comparison with some existing methods such as the synthetic control…

含时变协变量的直接与间接处理效应AI 解读

ABSTRACT We propose a simple approach to treatment effect estimation in panel data that is valid when the number of time periods is small and the parallel trends condition is violated due to the presence of interactive fixed effects. The procedure allows the covariates to be affected by treatment and enables separation of the part of the estimated treatment effect that is due to the covariates from the part that is not. The asymptotic properties of the new approach are…

交互固定效应面板中潜在组结构的收缩估计与识别AI 解读

This paper provides a framework for joint shrinkage estimation and identification of latent group structures in panel data models with interactive fixed effects and large number of explanatory variables. The latent structure of the model allows individuals to be classified into a number of groups where the number of groups and/or each individual’s group identity are unknown. A doubly penalized principal component estimation procedure using a pairwise fusion penalty and an…

时间维度较小时异质性面板分位数回归的 CCE 估计AI 解读

We consider a common correlated effects estimator for panel quantile regression models featuring heterogeneous slope coefficients and interactive fixed effects. Using convolution smoothing to facilitate the derivation of asymptotic properties, our method allows the number of time periods (T) to grow at a much slower rate than the number of cross-sectional units (N). We establish that the mean group estimator converges to a limiting normal distribution, which may have a…

面板回归模型的核范数正则化估计AI 解读

In this paper we investigate panel regression models with interactive fixed effects. We propose two new estimation methods that are based on minimizing convex objective functions. The first method minimizes the sum of squared residuals with a nuclear (trace) norm regularization. The second method minimizes the nuclear norm of the residuals. We establish the consistency of the two resulting estimators. Those estimators have a very important computational advantage compared to…

含交互固定效应的非平衡面板模型估计与推断AI 解读

This paper establishes the inferential theory for unbalanced panel data models with interactive fixed effects. We propose a two-step estimation algorithm with the first step obtaining an initial consistent estimator followed by an alternating maximization procedure. We prove that the alternating maximization procedure is a contractionary mapping and the final estimator is asymptotically normal, as long as the initial estimator is consistent. We also develop analytical bias…

交互效应动态面板模型中 QMLE 的效率AI 解读

This paper studies the problem of efficient estimation of panel data models in the presence of an increasing number of incidental parameters. We formulate the dynamic panel as a simultaneous equations system, and derive the efficiency bound under the normality assumption. We then show that the Gaussian quasi-maximum likelihood estimator (QMLE) applied to the system achieves the efficiency bound without the normality assumption. Comparison of QMLE with the fixed effects…

处理效应估计的 PCDID 方法：进一步考察AI 解读

ABSTRACT In the present paper, we study the so‐called “PCDID” approach to treatment effects estimation in panels with interactive effects where the factors represent trends whose effect need not be parallel across the cross‐sectional units. Our interest in this step‐wise approach originates with the observation that the interactive effects are ignored in the first step, which should not be possible without affecting subsequent steps. We confirm that the estimated second‐step…

含交互固定效应的高维离散选择模型及其因果推断应用AI 解读

ABSTRACT We propose a two‐step procedure to estimate a high dimensional discrete choice panel with interactive fixed effects where the initial and final estimators are obtained via a nuclear‐norm regularized (NNR) maximum likelihood estimation and post‐NNR iterated estimation, respectively. We apply the method to make counterfactual predictions of choice probabilities. Simulations demonstrate nice finite sample performance in estimation and tests. An illustrative application…

交互固定效应与短面板下的动态处理效应估计AI 解读

We study the estimation and inference of dynamic average treatment effect parameters when parallel trends holds conditional on interactive fixed effects and where units enter into treatment at different time periods. Our proposed generalized method of moments estimator consists of two parts: first, we estimate the unobserved time effects by applying the fixed-T consistent quasi-long-differencing estimator of Ahn et al., (2013) to the never-treated group. Second, we estimate…

交互固定效应下部分识别面板模型的推断AI 解读

In this paper, we develop methods for statistical inferences in a partially identified nonparametric panel data model with endogeneity and interactive fixed effects. Under some normalization rules, we can concentrate out the large-dimensional parameter vector of factor loadings and specify a set of conditional moment restrictions that are involved with only the finite-dimensional factor parameters along with the infinite-dimensional nonparametric component. For a conjectured…

具有时变交互固定效应的时变面板数据模型AI 解读

This paper introduces a time-varying (TV) panel data model with interactive fixed effects where both the coefficients and factor loadings are allowed to change smoothly over time. We propose a local version of the least squares and principal component method to estimate the TV coefficients, TV factor loadings, and common factors simultaneously. We provide a bias-corrected local least squares estimator for the TV coefficients and establish the limiting distributions and…

具有多层交互固定效应的三维异质面板数据模型AI 解读

We consider a three-dimensional (3D) panel data model with heterogeneous slope coefficients and multi-level interactive fixed effects consisting of latent global factors and two types of local factors. Our model nests many commonly used 3D panel data models. We propose an iterative estimation procedure that relies on initial consistent estimators obtained through a novel defactored approach. We study the asymptotic properties of our estimators and show that our iterative…

具有异质性的非参数时变面板模型AI 解读

Since Bai (2009, Econometrica 77, 1229–1279), considerable extensions have been made to panel data models with interactive fixed effects (IFEs). However, little work has been conducted to understand the associated iterative algorithm, which, to the best of our knowledge, is the most commonly adopted approach in this line of research. In this paper, we refine the algorithm of panel data models with IFEs using the nuclear-norm penalization method and duple least-squares (DLS)…

具有一般因子与解释变量的交互效应面板模型AI 解读

This paper considers a model with general regressors and unobservable common factors. An estimator based on iterated principal component analysis is proposed, which is shown to be not only asymptotically normal, but under certain conditions also free of the otherwise so common asymptotic incidental parameters bias. Interestingly, the conditions required to achieve unbiasedness become weaker the stronger the trends in the factors, and if the trending is strong enough,…

交互效应面板模型中的多重结构突变AI 解读

ABSTRACT This paper develops new econometric methods for multiple structural break detection in panel data models with interactive fixed effects. The new methods include tests for the presence of structural breaks, estimators for the number of breaks and their location, and a method for constructing asymptotically valid break date confidence intervals. The new methodology is applied to a large panel of US banks for a period characterized by massive quantitative easing…

交互固定效应高维面板模型的估计与推断AI 解读

We develop new econometric methods for estimation and inference in high‐dimensional panel data models with interactive fixed effects. Our approach can be regarded as a nontrivial extension of the very popular common correlated effects (CCE) approach. Roughly speaking, we proceed as follows: We first construct a projection device to eliminate the unobserved factors from the model by applying a dimensionality reduction transform to the matrix of cross‐sectionally averaged…

含交互固定效应的核范数正则化分位数回归AI 解读

This paper studies large N and large T conditional quantile panel data models with interactive fixed effects. We propose a nuclear norm penalized estimator of the coefficients on the covariates and the low-rank matrix formed by the interactive fixed effects. The estimator solves a convex minimization problem, not requiring pre-estimation of the (number of) interactive fixed effects. It also allows the number of covariates to grow slowly with N and T . We derive an error…

面板数据模型的高阶展开与统计推断AI 解读

In this paper, we propose a simple inferential method for a wide class of panel data models with a focus on such cases that have both serial correlation and cross-sectional dependence. In order to establish an asymptotic theory to support the inferential method, we develop some new and useful higher-order expansions, such as Berry-Esseen bound and Edgeworth Expansion, under a set of simple and general conditions. We further demonstrate the usefulness of these theoretical…

使用组别交互固定效应多层回归模型进行政策分析AI 解读

The use of multilevel regression models is prevalent in policy analysis to estimate the effect of group level policies on individual outcomes. In order to allow for the time varying effect of group heterogeneity and the group specific impact of time effects, we propose a group interactive fixed effects approach that employs interaction terms of group factor loadings and common factors in this model. For this approach, we consider the least squares estimator and associated…

含交互固定效应的异质动态面板模型：Oracle 有效估计AI 解读

We propose a two-step procedure to estimate a heterogeneous dynamic panel data model with interactive fixed effects. We establish the asymptotic properties of the estimators and show that the final estimator is oracle efficient. We also propose a specification test for the null hypothesis of homogeneous slopes and study the asymptotic properties of the test statistic under both local and global alternatives. Simulations demonstrate the fine performance of the estimator and…
