仅需两个截面单位的双重差分：民主与增长的新视角AI 解读

Pooled panel analyses often mask heterogeneity in unit-specific treatment effects. This challenge, for example, crops up in studies of the impact of democracy on economic growth, where findings vary substantially due to differences in country composition. To address this challenge, this paper introduces the Temporal Difference-in-Differences (T-DiD) estimator that leverages temporal variation in the data to estimate unit-specific average treatment effects on the treated…

具有大量预测变量的单位根时间序列模型选择AI 解读

This paper studies model selection for general unit-root time series, including the case with many exogenous predictors. We propose a new model selection algorithm, FHTD, that leverages forward stepwise regression (FSR), a high-dimensional information criterion (HDIC), a backward elimination method based on HDIC, and a data-driven thresholding (DDT) approach. Under some mild assumptions that allow for unknown locations and multiplicities of the characteristic roots on the…
