多重行为均衡模型中的估计与推断AI 解读

We develop estimation and inference methods for a macroeconomic model with potentially multiple behavioural equilibria, where agents form expectations using a constant-gain learning rule. We discuss identification, estimation, and inference for the structural parameters and propose uniform confidence bands for the equilibria. When equilibrium solutions are repeated, mixed convergence rates and non-standard limit distributions emerge. Monte Carlo simulations and an empirical…

结构突变下的局部高斯 Copula 推断：依赖关系可预测性检验AI 解读

We propose a score test for dependence predictability in conditional copulas that is robust to temporal instabilities. Our semiparametric procedure accommodates flexible dynamics in the marginal processes and remains agnostic about the copula family by leveraging distributional regression techniques together with a local Gaussian representation of the copula link function. We derive the limiting distribution of our test statistic and propose a resampling scheme based on…

二元结局模型中的非线性变换内生性校正：识别与推断AI 解读

For binary outcome models, an endogeneity correction based on nonlinear rank-based transformations is proposed. Identification without external instruments is achieved under one of two assumptions: either the endogenous regressor is a nonlinear function of one component of the error term, conditional on the exogenous regressors, or the dependence between the endogenous and exogenous regressors is nonlinear. Under these conditions, we prove consistency and asymptotic…

具有经验学习机制的非平稳非线性群组面板最小二乘估计AI 解读

We discuss techniques of estimation and inference for nonstationary nonlinear cohort panels with learning from experience, showing, inter alia, the consistency and asymptotic normality of the nonlinear least squares estimator used in empirical practice. Potential pitfalls for hypothesis testing are identified and solutions proposed. Monte Carlo simulations verify the properties of the estimator and corresponding test statistics in finite samples, while an application to a…

存在不稳定性时的分位数格兰杰因果检验AI 解读

We propose a new framework for assessing Granger causality in quantiles in unstable environments, for a fixed quantile or over a continuum of quantile levels. Our proposed test statistics are consistent against fixed alternatives, they have nontrivial power against local alternatives, and they are pivotal in certain important special cases. In addition, we show the validity of a bootstrap procedure when asymptotic distributions depend on nuisance parameters. Monte Carlo…

利用非线性变换修正内生性的渐近性质AI 解读

This paper considers a linear regression model with an endogenous regressor which arises from a nonlinear transformation of a latent variable. It is shown that the corresponding coefficient can be consistently estimated without external instruments by adding a rank-based transformation of the regressor to the model and performing standard OLS estimation. In contrast to other approaches, our nonparametric control function approach does not rely on a conformably specified…

含外生协变量的因子 Copula 模型：估计与推断AI 解读

A factor copula model is proposed in which factors are either simulable or estimable from exogenous information. Point estimation and inference are based on a simulated methods of moments (SMM) approach with non-overlapping simulation draws. Consistency and limiting normality of the estimator is established and the validity of bootstrap standard errors is shown. Doing so, previous results from the literature are verified under low-level conditions imposed on the individual…

含自适应学习的线性回归中的两步估计AI 解读

Weak consistency and asymptotic normality of the ordinary least-squares estimator in a linear regression with adaptive learning is derived when the crucial, so-called, `gain' parameter is estimated in a first step by nonlinear least squares from an auxiliary model. The singular limiting distribution of the two-step estimator is normal and in general affected by the sampling uncertainty from the first step. However, this `generated-regressor' issue disappears for certain…
