高维面板函数型时间序列的统计推断AI 解读

Abstract In this paper, we develop statistical inference tools for high-dimensional functional time series. We introduce a new concept of physical dependent processes in the space of square integrable functions, which adopts the idea of basis decomposition of functional data in these spaces, and derive Gaussian and multiplier bootstrap approximations for sums of high-dimensional functional time series. These results have numerous important statistical consequences.…

共同所有权、竞争与高管激励AI 解读

We present a mechanism based on managerial incentives through which common ownership affects product market outcomes. Firm-level variation in common ownership causes variation in managerial incentives and productivity across firms, which leads to intraindustry and intrafirm cross-market variation in prices, output, markups, and market shares that is consistent with empirical evidence. The organizational structure of multiproduct firms and the passivity of common owners…

集体家庭模型中不可观测分配因素与偏好的识别AI 解读

This paper develops a non-parametric collective random utility model with a continuous choice of consumption and sharing. We allow for a heterogeneous population by introducing unobserved distribution factors and preferences that are non-separable in the stochastic household choice system. We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for invertibility with respect to the vector of unobserved heterogeneity. Further, we show non-parametric identification of each individual’s…

灵活的零膨胀泊松–伽马模型及微生物组序列计数应用AI 解读

In microbiome studies, it is of interest to use a sample from a population of microbes, such as the gut microbiota community, to estimate the population proportion of these taxa. However, due to biases introduced in sampling and preprocessing steps, these observed taxa abundances may not reflect true taxa abundance patterns in the ecosystem. Repeated measures, including longitudinal study designs, may be potential solutions to mitigate the discrepancy between observed…

大规模面板高频数据中全局与局部主成分分析的差异AI 解读

In this article, we study the discrepancy between the global principal component analysis (GPCA) and local principal component analysis (LPCA) in recovering the common components of a large-panel high-frequency data. We measure the discrepancy by the total sum of squared differences between common components reconstructed from GPCA and LPCA. The asymptotic distribution of the discrepancy measure is provided when the factor space is time invariant as the dimension p and…

预算约束下利用不规则电子健康记录的强化风险预测AI 解读

Uncontrolled glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels are associated with adverse events among complex diabetic patients. These adverse events present serious health risks to affected patients and are associated with significant financial costs. Thus, a high-quality predictive model that could identify high-risk patients so as to inform preventative treatment has the potential to improve patient outcomes while reducing healthcare costs. Because the biomarker information needed to…

空间面板数据模型的鞍点近似AI 解读

We develop new higher-order asymptotic techniques for the Gaussian maximum likelihood estimator in a spatial panel data model, with fixed effects, time-varying covariates, and spatially correlated errors. Our saddlepoint density and tail area approximation feature relative error of order O(1/(n(T−1))) with n being the cross-sectional dimension and T the time-series dimension. The main theoretical tool is the tilted-Edgeworth technique in a nonidentically distributed setting.…

多因素析因实验中的不依从与工具变量AI 解读

Factorial experiments are widely used to assess the marginal, joint, and interactive effects of multiple concurrent factors. While a robust literature covers the design and analysis of these experiments, there is less work on how to handle treatment noncompliance in this setting. To fill this gap, we introduce a new methodology that uses the potential outcomes framework for analyzing 2K factorial experiments with noncompliance on any number of factors. This framework builds…

基于纵向修正处理政策的非参数因果效应AI 解读

Most causal inference methods consider counterfactual variables under interventions that set the exposure to a fixed value. With continuous or multi-valued treatments or exposures, such counterfactuals may be of little practical interest because no feasible intervention can be implemented that would bring them about. Longitudinal modified treatment policies (LMTPs) are a recently developed nonparametric alternative that yield effects of immediate practical relevance with an…

更正：固定效应模型中聚类稳健方差估计与假设检验的小样本方法AI 解读

Pustejovsky and Tipton considered how to implement cluster-robust variance estimators for fixed effects models estimated by weighted (or unweighted) least squares. Theorem 2 of the paper concerns a computational short cut for a certain cluster-robust variance estimator in models with cluster-specific fixed effects. It claimed that this short cut works for models estimated by generalized least squares, as long as the weights are taken to be inverse of the working model.…

具有共同冲击的联立空间面板数据模型AI 解读

We consider a simultaneous spatial panel data model, jointly modeling three effects: simultaneous effects, spatial effects and common shock effects. This joint modeling and consideration of cross-sectional heteroscedasticity result in a large number of incidental parameters. We propose two estimation approaches, a quasi-maximum likelihood method and an iterative generalized principal components method. We develop full inferential theories for the estimation approaches and…

含随机效应的自回归面板有序 Probit 模型的复合似然估计AI 解读

Modeling and estimating autocorrelated discrete data can be challenging. In this article, we use an autoregressive panel ordered probit model where the serial correlation in the discrete variable is driven by the autocorrelation in the latent variable. In such a nonlinear model, the presence of a lagged latent variable results in an intractable likelihood containing high-dimensional integrals. To tackle this problem, we use composite likelihoods that involve a much lower…

通过 Classifier-Lasso 检测有效价格中的未观测异质性AI 解读

This article proposes a new measure of efficient price as a weighted average of bid and ask prices, where the weights are constructed from the bid-ask long-run relationships in a panel error-correction model (ECM). To allow for heterogeneity in the long-run relationships, we consider a panel ECM with latent group structures so that all the stocks within a group share the same long-run relationship and do not otherwise. We extend the Classifier-Lasso method to the ECM to…

面板数据模型中的趋势设定检验AI 解读

This article proposes a consistent nonparametric test for common trend specifications in panel data models with fixed effects. The test is general enough to allow for heteroscedasticity, cross-sectional and serial dependence in the error components, has an asymptotically normal distribution under the null hypothesis of correct trend specification, and is consistent against various alternatives that deviate from the null. In addition, the test has an asymptotic unit power…

面板数据模型中的密度预测：半参数贝叶斯视角AI 解读

This article constructs individual-specific density forecasts for a panel of firms or households using a dynamic linear model with common and heterogeneous coefficients as well as cross-sectional heteroscedasticity. The panel considered in this article features a large cross-sectional dimension N but short time series T. Due to the short T, traditional methods have difficulty in disentangling the heterogeneous parameters from the shocks, which contaminates the estimates of…

经营单位年龄与工资AI 解读

This paper investigates the relationship between establishment age and wages. A key challenge is that new establishments differ from mature establishments along many dimensions due to non-random survival of establishments. Furthermore, worker composition changes as establishments age. To get around this, the paper uses linked employer–employee data from Germany and estimates the establishment age–wage relationship controlling for establishment and worker fixed effects and…

招聘来源、企业异质性与工资：来自哪里与就职何处的比较AI 解读

Sequential auction models of labor market competition predict that the wages required to successfully poach a worker from a rival employer will depend on the productivities of both the poached and poaching firms. We develop a theoretically grounded extension of the two-way fixed effects model of Abowd et al. (1999) in which log hiring wages are comprised of a worker fixed effect, a fixed effect for the “destination” firm hiring the worker, and a fixed effect for the “origin”…

企业效应会漂移吗？来自华盛顿州行政数据的证据AI 解读

We study the time-series properties of firm effects in the two-way fixed effects model popularized by Abowd et al. (1999) (AKM) using two approaches. The first—the rolling AKM approach (R-AKM)—estimates AKM models separately for successive two-year intervals. The second—the time-varying AKM approach (TV-AKM)—is an extension of the original AKM model that allows for unrestricted interactions of year and firm indicators. We apply to both approaches the leave-out methodology of…

扭转需求曲线：数字化与年长劳动力AI 解读

Software represents a major and fast-growing share of firms’ capital investment, impacting demand for labor and what workers do on their jobs. Using U.S. Census Bureau panel data that link firms and workers, this paper estimates the effect of firm software capital on the earnings of workers by age group. We extend the AKM framework to include job-spell fixed effects that account for potential correlation between the worker–firm match and employee age, as well as including…

工资的持续性AI 解读

This paper documents the extent to which wage persistence can be explained by permanent worker, employer, and match heterogeneity. Standard methods used to perform such decompositions for industry or racial wage gaps are inappropriate for decomposing wage persistence in dynamic panel data models because of the incidental parameter problem. When we apply these methods without bias correction, we find that the majority, 59.3 percent, of wage persistence is explained by worker…

工会会员密度与工资：劳动者、企业和职位异质性的作用AI 解读

We examine the association between union density and wages in Portugal where just 10 percent of all workers are union members but nine-tenths of them are covered by collective agreements. Using a unique dataset on workers, firms, and collective bargaining agreements, we examine the union density wage gap in total monthly wages and its sources – namely, worker, firm, and job-title or ‘occupational’ heterogeneity – using the Gelbach decomposition. The most important source of…

利用匹配数据或纵向网络数据估计溢出效应AI 解读

Social interactions often play a key role in determining the impact of policies, but measuring the magnitude of spillover effects empirically is notoriously challenging because, in most applications, a person’s relationships are likely to reflect her own characteristics (homophily), and people who are connected are likely to be affected by the same shocks (common factors). In addition, a significant share of social interactions is likely to occur through variables that are…

雇主政策与移民和本地人的收入差距AI 解读

We use longitudinal data from the income tax system to study the impacts of firms’ employment and wage-setting policies on the level and change in immigrant–native wage differences in Canada. We focus on immigrants who arrived in the early 2000s, distinguishing between those with and without a college degree from two broad groups of countries – the U.S., the U.K. and Northern Europe, and the rest of the world. Consistent with a growing literature based on the two-way fixed…

适度局部于单位根框架下右尾 PANIC 检验的横截面方法AI 解读

The left-tailed unit-root tests of the panel analysis of nonstationarity in idiosyncratic and common components (PANIC) proposed by Bai and Ng (2004, Econometrica 72, 1127–1177) have standard local asymptotic power. We assess the size and power properties of the right-tailed version of the PANIC tests when the common and/or the idiosyncratic components are moderately explosive. We find that, when an idiosyncratic component is moderately explosive, the tests for the common…
