We show that in the approximate factor model the population normalised principal components converge in mean square (up to sign) under the standard assumptions for $n\to \infty$. Consequently, we have a generic interpretation of what the principal components estimator is actually identifying and existing results on factor identification are reinforced and refined. Based on this result, we provide a new asymptotic theory for the approximate factor model entirely without rotation matrices. We show that the factors space is consistently estimated with finite $T$ for $n\to \infty$ while consistency of the factors a.k.a the $L^2$ limit of the normalised principal components requires that both $(n, T)\to \infty$.
多层主效应矩阵因子模型
We propose a multilevel main effects matrix factor model (MMEFM) to extract meaningful row and column effects from groups of matrix data. As a generalization of a multilevel matrix factor model, we provide rigorous definitions of MMEFM and identifications, together with iterative algorithms for the estimators of all global and local components in the main effects and common component, including global/local main effects and core ranks, with rates of convergence spelt out. An…
高维近似因子时间序列模型的主成分分析:假设、渐近理论与识别
We consider estimation of large approximate factor models in high-dimensional panels of stationary time series using Principal Component Analysis (PCA). We review the key results establishing the necessary and sufficient conditions for consistency and asymptotic normality of the estimators, which hold when both the cross-sectional dimension $n$ and the sample size $T$ tend to infinity. Special emphasis is placed on identification. First, we show that the common and…
从旋转不变性到标量不变性:提升得分驱动因子模型的可识别性
We show that, for a certain class of scaling matrices including the inverse square-root of the conditional Fisher information, score-driven factor models are identifiable up to a multiplicative scalar constant under very mild restrictions. This result has no analogue in parameter-driven models, as it exploits the different structure of the score-driven factor dynamics. Consequently, score-driven factor models overcome the issue of rotational invariance that typically affects…
通过惩罚最小二乘实现一步式分组因子分析
In this article, we revisit the problem of group factor analysis and propose a one-step penalized least squares method to estimate the factor loadings and factors in large-dimensional group factor models, offering a distinct alternative to the conventional two-step principal component approach. Our procedure originates from the equivalence between the group factor structure and the carefully tailored identification conditions. Leveraging this insight, we develop a tricky…
高维矩阵时间序列主效应因子模型的识别与稀疏性
We propose a general identification framework for main effect factor models for matrix-valued time series. The classical sum-to-zero restriction on the row and column main effects is replaced by a broad class of shift-varying functions, which includes weighted averages, quantiles, and reference-unit anchors as special cases. We prove that the shift-varying property is necessary and sufficient for parameter identification, and we derive closed-form estimators under minimal…
重审近似因子模型主成分估计量的渐近理论
It is well known that approximate factor models exhibit rotation indeterminacy. Principal component (PC) estimators are typically analyzed relative to a rotated factor-loading representation, but the commonly used rotation depends on the estimator itself, leaving unclear which fixed population parameters are estimated. We show that any starting representation of the common component can be mapped by a rotation matrix $\bH$, constructed without using the PC estimator or the…
