Generalized Covariance Estimator under Misspecification
模型误设下的广义协方差估计量
This paper investigates the properties of the Generalized Covariance (GCov) estimator under misspecification with application to processes with local explosive patterns, such as causal-noncausal processes. We show that GCov is consistent and has an asymptotically Normal distribution under misspecification. Then, we construct GCov-based Wald-type and score-type tests to test one specification against the other, all of which follow a $χ^2$ distribution. We validate the…
