We consider estimation of the covariance matrix of a multivariate random vector under the constraint that certain covariances are zero. We first present an algorithm, which we call iterative conditional fitting, for computing the maximum likelihood estimate of the constrained covariance matrix, under the assumption of multivariate normality. In contrast to previous approaches, this algorithm has guaranteed convergence properties. Dropping the assumption of multivariate normality, we show how to estimate the covariance matrix in an empirical likelihood approach. These approaches are then compared via simulation and on an example of gene expression.
This article introduces a framework for evaluating statistical decisions under both prior ambiguity and likelihood misspecification. We begin with an ambiguity set - a frequentist model that pairs a possibly misspecified likelihood with every possible prior - and uniformly expand it by a Kullback-Leibler radius to accommodate likelihood misspecification. We show that optimal decisions under this framework are equivalent to minimax decisions with an exponentially tilted loss…
线性IV模型中持续更新GMM的多项式方法
This paper characterizes the global minimum of the continuously updating generalized method of moments (CU-GMM) objective in linear instrumental variables models. We allow optimal weighting matrices under heteroskedasticity, autocorrelation, or clustering. We show that the objective is a ratio of polynomials. For one endogenous regressor, stationary points of CU-GMM objective function are real eigenvalues of a companion matrix. Comparing their objective values with the value…
线性不等式约束下投影几何的极小极大选择
Economic theory frequently implies linear inequality restrictions on parameters or functions of interest. A common way to impose such restrictions is to project an unrestricted estimator onto the feasible set. Projection estimators arise naturally from constrained least squares, instrumental variables, generalized method of moments, maximum likelihood, and related extremum procedures. When the sampling covariance, loss function, and projection criterion induce different…
利用多分位数稳健检验多变量波动率的结构变化
We propose an omnibus nonparametric test for structural changes in the multivariate volatility matrix. The test aggregates bounded generalized quantile scores over a range of quantile levels and has a weighted leave-$q$-out $U$-statistic representation. Deleting nearby index pairs renders the centering effect induced by serial dependence asymptotically negligible. All quantities required for implementation, including the variance estimator used for standardization, are…
无矩条件下的非对称 GARCH 建模
Heavy tails and stability are two persistent challenges in modelling financial time series, yet most existing approaches rely on finite-moment assumptions and pay insufficient attention to stability issues. To bridge this gap, we propose an asymmetric GARCH model with standardized non-Gaussian stable innovations (sAGARCH), which accommodates infinite variance and even infinite mean. We establish a comprehensive inference framework for both stationary and explosive cases,…
带均衡约束的结构估计序贯算法
This study examines sequential algorithms with the Zero Jacobian Property (ZJP) for estimating structural models subject to equilibrium constraints. For the Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) and the Generalized Method of Moments (GMM), the current study shows that these algorithms attains fast (near-quadratic) local convergence in large samples to the solution of the constrained optimization problem. If consistent initial estimates of the parameters are available, the…
