通过函数逼近对随机趋势进行典型相关分析AI 解读

This paper proposes a novel approach for semiparametric inference on the number s of common trends and their loading matrix ψ in I(1)/I(0) systems. It combines functional approximation of limits of random walks and canonical correlation analysis, performed between the p observed time series of length T and the first K discretized elements of an L2 basis. Tests and selection criteria for s and estimators and tests on ψ are proposed; their properties are discussed as T and K…

资产价格能否帮助预测通胀？来自个股价格的证据AI 解读

This paper revisits the predictive power of asset prices for inflation, focusing on individual stock prices rather than aggregate indices. Using a large panel data of firm-level stock prices and applying machine learning techniques, we demonstrate that individual stock prices significantly enhance the accuracy of inflation forecasts, particularly over medium- to long-term horizons and during periods of high inflationary and deflationary pressure. Compared to composite and…

时变面板数据模型中的潜在子群识别AI 解读

This article introduces a time-varying panel data model that incorporates latent group structures, designed to tackle both individual heterogeneity and smooth structural changes over time. We develop an innovative center-augmented K-power means (KPM) methodology that promotes convergence of subjects toward their respective cluster centers, enabling the identification of latent group structures without requiring prior knowledge of group composition. This approach delivers…

动态空间自回归模型的推断与变点检测AI 解读

We analyze a varying-coefficient spatial autoregressive model with spatial fixed effects. One salient feature of the model is the incorporation of multiple spatial weight matrices through their linear combinations with varying coefficients, which help solve the problem of choosing the most “correct” one for applied econometricians who often face the availability of multiple expert spatial weight matrices. We estimate and make inferences on the model coefficients and…

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…

含内生性的时变线性变换面板模型中的偏效应AI 解读

This article develops a new estimator for an average partial effect in nonlinear panel models, where outcomes are time-varying monotonic transformations of latent variables that include fixed effects and endogenous regressors. The partial effect can be time-varying and the counterfactual shift is scale invariant—key advantages over the linear model. We exploit a conditional moment restriction and address the ill-posed nature of recovering the transformation functions using…

二元结果与线性交互AI 解读

We consider general models of linear interactions in binary outcomes. We first characterize the conditions under which these models are coherent and complete. Next, we show that models of linear interactions admit sound microfoundations under assumptions of incomplete information and independence. To help guide practitioners, we discuss key modeling choices and testable restrictions. We then consider a specification that is linear in parameters, and propose a simple…

一般未知因子下共同相关效应回归的横截面自助法AI 解读

The Common Correlated Effects (CCE) approach enjoys considerable popularity for estimating factor-augmented panel data models. A key benefit is that by orthogonalizing the data on the available cross-section averages, the unobserved components are eliminated from the data, regardless of their order(s) of integration. This obviates the need for such knowledge, and makes CCE particularly attractive for macroeconomic applications, where the set of unobservables might contain…

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…

时变内生随机系数面板模型的识别与估计AI 解读

This paper proposes a correlated random coefficient linear panel data model, where regressors can be correlated with time-varying and individual-specific random coefficients through both a fixed effect and a time-varying random shock. I develop a new panel data-based method to identify the average partial effect and the local average response function. The identification strategy employs a sufficient statistic to control for the fixed effect and a control variable for the…

双侧测量误差下的分布效应：代际收入流动应用AI 解读

This paper considers identification and estimation of distributional effect parameters that depend on the joint distribution of an outcome and another variable of interest (“treatment”) in a setting with “two-sided” measurement error—that is, where both variables are possibly measured with error. Examples of these parameters in the context of intergenerational income mobility include transition matrices, rank-rank correlations, and the poverty rate of children as a function…

基于个体特征的分位数因子模型估计AI 解读

This paper studies the estimation of characteristics-based quantile factor models where the factor loadings are unknown functions of observed individual characteristics, and the idiosyncratic error terms are subject to conditional quantile restrictions. We propose a three-stage estimation procedure that is easy to implement and has nice properties. The convergence rates, the limiting distributions of the estimated factors and loading functions, plus a consistent selection…

含持续与暂时无效率的半参数随机前沿模型贝叶斯估计AI 解读

We propose kernel estimators for the densities of persistent and transient inefficiencies in a generalized panel data stochastic frontier model. This approach relaxes the conventional distributional assumptions imposed on the inefficiencies, thereby increasing robustness. A Bayesian sampling algorithm is developed to estimate all model parameters and unobserved entities, as well as the bandwidths needed to construct the densities of persistent and transient inefficiencies.…

气候计量中的贝叶斯时空变系数建模：时空高斯过程方法AI 解读

Quantifying the economic impacts of weather variables has been a key empirical topic in understanding the impacts of climate change. While panel methods, which utilize cross-sectional differences in within-unit over-time changes in weather variables, have been widely used to credibly identify the average effect of interest, there has been a growing interest in understanding the distribution of potentially heterogeneous weather effects. The heterogeneity of the effects across…

经济增长建模的贝叶斯方法：变量选择与截面依赖AI 解读

This paper introduces a Bayesian framework designed to address two critical econometric challenges in empirical growth studies: variable selection and cross-sectional dependence. We first propose a growth regression model that incorporates cross-sectional dependence through a multi-factor structure and accounts for variable selection with sparse coefficients. We then introduce a new Bayesian Adaptive LASSO estimator specifically designed for this model, capable of performing…

大型贝叶斯矩阵自回归模型AI 解读

High-dimensional matrix-valued time-series are increasingly common in economics and finance. Prominent examples include large cross-region panels and dynamic economic networks. As the dimensions of the matrix grow, conventional approaches based on vector autoregressions—implemented by vectoring the matrix-valued data—become computationally infeasible. We introduce a class of large Bayesian matrix autoregressions (BMARs) that can accommodate time-varying volatility,…

合成控制的识别与推断：近端因果推断框架AI 解读

Synthetic control (SC) methods are commonly used to estimate the treatment effect on a single treated unit in panel data settings. An SC is a weighted average of control units built to match the treated unit, with weights typically estimated by regressing pre-treatment outcomes and measured covariates of the treated unit to those of the control units. However, the classical SC method was primarily proposed for empirical settings where a good pre-treatment fit is attainable…

异质轨迹的函数型奇异值分解：健康领域案例AI 解读

Trajectory data, including time series and longitudinal measurements, are increasingly common in health-related domains such as biomedical research and epidemiology. Real-world trajectory data frequently exhibit heterogeneity across subjects such as patients, sites, and subpopulations, yet many traditional methods are not designed to accommodate such heterogeneity in data analysis. To address this, we propose a unified framework, termed Functional Singular Value…

含潜变量的马尔可夫过程学习与识别AI 解读

We consider the problem of identifying the parameters of a time-homogeneous bivariate Markov chain when only one of the two variables is observable. We show that, subject to conditions that we spell out, the transition kernel and the distribution of the initial condition are uniquely recoverable (up to an arbitrary relabelling of the state space of the latent variable) from the joint distribution of four (or more) consecutive time-series observations. The result is,…

缓冲储蓄行为的统计推断AI 解读

ABSTRACT There is an ongoing debate about the buffer‐stock saving hypothesis. This paper develops a formal test of the hypothesis by examining the sub‐unity of the marginal propensity to consume out of permanent income (MPCP). Our test relies on a novel estimator of the average derivative of a nonparametric consumption model, using constructed measures of latent permanent income shocks that accommodate nonparametric income distributions. Following Li and Vuong (1998), we use…

利用面板数据估计交互效应AI 解读

ABSTRACT This paper analyzes how interaction effects can be consistently estimated under economically plausible assumptions in linear panel models with a fixed ‐dimension. We advocate for a correlated interaction term effects (CITE) estimator and show that it is consistent under conditions that are not sufficient for consistency of the interaction term effect estimator that is most common in applied econometric work. Our paper discusses the empirical content of these…

什么解释了国际利率的共同变动？AI 解读

ABSTRACT The international co‐movement of interest rates reflects correlated business‐cycle fluctuations, largely driven by demand shocks. Monetary policy in advanced economies follows domestic mandates—inflation and the output gap—and does not respond to foreign policy shocks. We derive this result from a Bayesian structural panel vector autoregression with informative priors, homogeneity restrictions on contemporaneous relations, a hierarchical Minnesota prior with…

股票指数间的跳跃传染：来自期权市场的证据AI 解读

We analyze the contagious propagation of jumps among international stock market indices, using a rich panel of high-frequency stock and options data ( 692,892 option contracts) over the period 2006–2015. We propose a bivariate option pricing model designed to allow for time and space amplification of jumps in option markets. We develop a semi-parametric estimation procedure, which employs a continuum of moment conditions in GMM with implied states and non-parametric…

高频价格停滞因子与波动率估计AI 解读

In this article, we propose a price staleness factor model that accounts for pervasive market friction across assets and incorporates relevant covariates. Using large-panel high-frequency data, we derive the maximum likelihood estimators of the regression coefficients, the nonstationary factors, and their loading parameters. These estimators recover the time-varying price staleness probabilities. We develop asymptotic theory in which both the dimension d and the sampling…
