双向不可观测异质性的非参数识别AI 解读

We study identification of two-way unobserved heterogeneity in the nonparametric panel regression $G_{it}=g(α_i,γ_t)+\varepsilon_{it}$, where identification of the latent types reduces to constructing identified, \emph{injective} proxies for them. To this end we consider the singular value decomposition (SVD) of the bivariate regression function $g(α,γ)$ on a product domain $Ω_α\timesΩ_γ$, whose left singular functions $\{u_r\}$ serve as proxies for the unobserved…

诚实置信区间的局部渐近功效AI 解读

Confidence intervals that are conservative against an untestable bias, called bias-aware or honest, are now standard in DiD, IV, RD, and factor-model settings. This paper characterises the local power of the tests they induce. Power is governed by the rate of the bias bound relative to the sampling rate, giving three regimes: when the bound vanishes faster than the standard error, conservatism is asymptotically free; when the two are of the same order it costs a bounded,…

具有双向未观测异质性的线性回归推断AI 解读

We develop a general estimation and inference procedure for the common parameters in linear panel data regression models with nonparametric two-way specification of unobserved heterogeneity. The procedure takes as input any first-step estimators of the nonparametric regression function and the fixed effects and relies on two key ingredients: First, we develop moment conditions for the common parameters that are Neyman orthogonal with respect to the nonparametric regression…

含交互固定效应的线性多维回归AI 解读

This paper studies a linear model for multidimensional panel data of three or more dimensions with unobserved interactive fixed-effects. The main estimator uses a Neyman-orthogonal approach, and requires two preliminary steps. First, the model is embedded within a two-dimensional panel framework where factor model methods in Bai (2009) lead to consistent, but slowly converging, estimates. The second step develops a weighted-within transformation that is robust to…

具有双向不可观测异质性的线性面板回归AI 解读

We study linear panel regression models in which the unobserved error term is an unknown smooth function of two-way unobserved fixed effects. In standard additive or interactive fixed effect models the individual specific and time specific effects are assumed to enter with a known functional form (additive or multiplicative). In this paper, we allow for this functional form to be more general and unknown. We discuss two different estimation approaches that allow consistent…
