运行变量存在组别特定测量误差时的断点回归校正AI 解读

When the running variable in a regression discontinuity (RD) design is measured with error, identification of the local average treatment effect of interest will typically fail. While the form of this measurement error varies across applications, in many cases the measurement error structure is heterogeneous across different groups of observations. We develop a novel measurement error correction procedure capable of addressing heterogeneous mismeasurement structures by…

动态预测回归的统一检验AI 解读

Testing for predictability of asset returns has been a long history in economics and finance. Recently, based on a simple predictive regression, Kostakis, Magdalinos, and Stamatogiannis derived a Wald type test based on the context of the extended instrumental variable (IVX) methodology for testing predictability of stock returns, and Demetrescu showed that the local power of the standard IVX-based test could be improved for some range of alternative hypotheses and the…

近单位根交互效应面板中的因子分析方法AI 解读

In a recent study, Bai (2013) proposes a new factor analytical (FA) method for estimation of stationary dynamic panel data models with fixed effects. Our interest in this method originates with the fact it does not require explicit demeaning of the data, a practice that is known to cause problems of bias and low power in near unit root panels. The purpose is to study the properties of FA when applied to such panels when the common component admits to a interactive effects…

大维动态因子模型：含一阶单整协整因子的脉冲响应估计AI 解读

We study a large-dimensional Dynamic Factor Model where: (i) the vector of factors Ft is I(1) and driven by a number of shocks that is smaller than the dimension of Ft; and, (ii) the idiosyncratic components are either I(1) or I(0). Under (i), the factors Ft are cointegrated and can be modeled as a Vector Error Correction Model (VECM). Under (i) and (ii), we provide consistent estimators, as both the cross-sectional size n and the time dimension T go to infinity, for the…

动态面板空间向量自回归估计：稳定性与空间多变量协整AI 解读

This paper introduces dynamic panel spatial vector autoregressive models. We study features of dynamics and spatial interactions that an SVAR model can generate and classify the model into stable or unstable cases by partitioning parameter spaces. For stable, spatial cointegration, and mixed cointegration cases, we investigate identification and QML estimation of the models to take into account simultaneity and correlated relationships. Asymptotic properties and…

局部随机单位根回归理论与金融收益指数样本相关系数的不稳定性AI 解读

Summary It is well known that the sample correlation coefficient between many financial return indices exhibits substantial variation on any reasonable sampling window. This stylised fact contradicts a unit root model for the underlying processes in levels, as the statistic converges in probability to a constant under this modeling scheme. In this paper, we establish asymptotic theory for regression in local stochastic unit root (LSTUR) variables. An empirical application…

近单位根自回归中的广义预测平均AI 解读

Summary This paper develops a new approach to forecasting a highly persistent time series that employs feasible generalized least squares (FGLS) estimation of the deterministic components in conjunction with Mallows model averaging. Within a local-to-unity asymptotic framework, we derive analytical expressions for the asymptotic mean squared error and one-step-ahead mean squared forecast risk of the proposed estimator and show that the optimal FGLS weights are different from…

含测量误差的矩阵型逻辑回归AI 解读

Summary Measurement error in covariates has been extensively studied in many conventional regression settings where covariate information is typically expressed in a vector form. However, there has been little work on error-prone matrix-variate data, which commonly arise from studies with imaging, spatial-temporal structures, etc. We consider analysis of error-contaminated matrix-variate data. We particularly focus on matrix-variate logistic measurement error models. We…

非平稳自回归模型中的多重断点估计AI 解读

Chong (1995) and Bai (1997) proposed a sample-splitting method to estimate a multiple-break model. However, their studies focused on stationary time series models, in which the identification of the first break depends on the magnitude and the duration of the break, and a testing procedure is needed to assist the estimation of the remaining breaks in subsamples split by the break points found earlier. In this paper, we focus on nonstationary multiple-break autoregressive…

稀疏单方程协整建模的自动化方法AI 解读

In this paper we propose the Single-equation Penalized Error Correction Selector (SPECS) as an automated estimation procedure for dynamic single-equation models with a large number of potentially (co)integrated variables. By extending the classical single-equation error correction model, SPECS enables the researcher to model large cointegrated datasets without necessitating any form of pre-testing for the order of integration or cointegrating rank. Under an asymptotic regime…

大规模面板中异质性与协整的推断理论AI 解读

This paper provides an estimation and testing framework to assess the presence and the extent of slope heterogeneity and cointegration when the units are a mixture of spurious and/or cointegrating regressions. We propose two moment estimators for the degree of heterogeneity (measured by the dispersion of the slope coefficients around their average) and for the fraction of spurious regressions, which are found to be consistent in the whole parameter space. Based on these…

潜变量非参数协整回归AI 解读

This article studies the asymptotic properties of empirical nonparametric regressions that partially misspecify the relationships between nonstationary variables. In particular, we analyze nonparametric kernel regressions in which a potential nonlinear cointegrating regression is misspecified through the use of a proxy regressor in place of the true regressor. Such models occur in linear and nonlinear regressions where the regressor suffers from measurement error or where…

协整与对照：利用时间序列数据评估事件影响AI 解读

Summary Control groups can provide counterfactual evidence for assessing the impact of an event or policy change on a target variable. We argue that fitting a multivariate time series model offers potential gains over a direct comparison between the target and a weighted average of controls. More importantly, it highlights the assumptions underlying methods such as difference in differences and synthetic control, suggesting ways to test these assumptions. Gains from simple…

广义局部单位根模型AI 解读

We introduce a generalization of the popular local‐to‐unity model of time series persistence by allowing for p autoregressive (AR) roots and p − 1 moving average (MA) roots close to unity. This generalized local‐to‐unity model, GLTU( p ), induces convergence of the suitably scaled time series to a continuous time Gaussian ARMA( p , p − 1) process on the unit interval. Our main theoretical result establishes the richness of this model class, in the sense that it can well…

伪因子分析AI 解读

This paper draws parallels between the principal components analysis of factorless high‐dimensional nonstationary data and the classical spurious regression. We show that a few of the principal components of such data absorb nearly all the data variation. The corresponding scree plot suggests that the data contain a few factors, which is corroborated by the standard panel information criteria. Furthermore, the Dickey–Fuller tests of the unit root hypothesis applied to the…

持续性误差下的趋势检验AI 解读

We develop new tests for the coefficient on a time trend in a regression of a variable on a constant and time trend where there is potentially strong serial correlation. This serial correlation can also include a unit root. We obtain tests under two different assumptions on the initial value for the stochastic component of the variable being examined, either this being zero asymptotically and also allowing the initial condition to be drawn from its unconditional…

存在协整时的高维预测回归AI 解读

We propose a Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) estimator of a predictive regression in which stock returns are conditioned on a large set of lagged covariates, some of which are highly persistent and potentially cointegrated. We establish the asymptotic properties of the proposed LASSO estimator and validate our theoretical findings using simulation studies. The application of this proposed LASSO approach to forecasting stock returns suggests that a…

非平稳波动下的水平突变位置估计及其在单位根检验中的应用AI 解读

This paper focuses on the estimation of the location of level breaks in time series whose shocks display non-stationary volatility (permanent changes in unconditional volatility). We propose a new feasible weighted least squares (WLS) estimator, based on an adaptive estimate of the volatility path of the shocks. We show that this estimator belongs to a generic class of weighted residual sum of squares which also contains the ordinary least squares (OLS) and WLS estimators,…

函数型局部单位根下的点最优检验AI 解读

Limit theory for regressions involving local to unit roots (LURs) is now used extensively in time series econometric work, establishing power properties for unit root and cointegration tests, assisting the construction of uniform confidence intervals for autoregressive coefficients, and enabling the development of methods robust to departures from unit roots. The present paper shows how to generalize LUR asymptotics to cases where the localized departure from unity is a time…

多极点长记忆时间序列的精确局部 Whittle 估计AI 解读

A generalization of the Exact Local Whittle estimator in Shimotsu and Phillips (2005, Annals of Statistics 33, 1890–1933) is proposed for jointly estimating all the memory parameters in general long memory time series that possibly display standard, seasonal, and/or other cyclical strong persistence. Consistency and asymptotic normality are proven for stationary, nonstationary, and noninvertible series, permitting straightforward standard inference of interesting hypotheses…

适度偏离单位根过程的伪回归与协整稳健推断AI 解读

This paper studies spurious regressions involving processes moderately deviated from a unit root (PMDURs), and establishes the limiting distributions for the least squares estimator, the associated t-statistic, the coefficient of determination R2 and the Durbin–Watson statistic. We find that these limiting distributions critically depend on nuisance parameters that characterize the local deviations from unity, making inference for spurious regressions practically impossible…

二阶识别模型中的推断AI 解读

We explore the local power properties of different test statistics for conducting inference in moment condition models that only identify the parameters locally to second order. We consider the conventional Wald and LM statistics, and also the Generalized Anderson–Rubin (GAR) statistic (Anderson and Rubin, 1949; Dufour, 1997; Staiger and Stock, 1997; Stock and Wright, 2000), KLM statistic (Kleibergen, 2002; Kleibergen, 2005) and the GMM extension of Moreira (2003) (GMM-M)…

I(1) 与 I(2) 自回归希尔伯特空间过程的表示AI 解读

We develop versions of the Granger–Johansen representation theorems for I(1) and I(2) vector autoregressive processes that apply to processes taking values in an arbitrary complex separable Hilbert space. This more general setting is of central relevance for statistical applications involving functional time series. An I(1) or I(2) solution to an autoregressive law of motion is obtained when the inverse of the autoregressive operator pencil has a pole of first or second…

函数型自回归过程中的协整AI 解读

This article defines the class of ${\cal H}$ -valued autoregressive (AR) processes with a unit root of finite type, where ${\cal H}$ is a possibly infinite-dimensional separable Hilbert space, and derives a generalization of the Granger–Johansen Representation Theorem valid for any integration order $d = 1,2, \ldots$ . An existence theorem shows that the solution of an AR process with a unit root of finite type is necessarily integrated of some finite integer order d ,…
