二阶识别下 GMM 估计量的大样本性质AI 解读

Dovonon and Hall (Journal of Econometrics, 2018) proposed a limiting distribution theory for GMM estimators for a p - dimensional globally identified parameter vector φ when local identification conditions fail at first-order but hold at second-order. They assumed that the first-order underidentification is due to the expected Jacobian having rank p-1 at the true value φ_{0}, i.e., having a rank deficiency of one. After reparametrizing the model such that the last column of…

固定效应与任意初始条件下的面板 AR(1) 修正极大似然估计再研究AI 解读

In this paper we consider two generalizations of Lancaster's (Review of Economic Studies, 2002) Modified Maximum Likelihood estimator (MMLE) for the panel AR(1) model with fixed effects, arbitrary initial conditions, and strictly exogenous covariates when the time dimension of the panel, T, is fixed. When the autoregressive parameter rho=1, the limiting modified profile log-likelihood function for this model has a stationary point of inflection, and rho is first-order…

面板 AR(1) 模型中基于准极大似然的一致有效推断AI 解读

Maximum Likelihood (ML) offers attractive alternatives to Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) estimators for dynamic panel data models. However, to date no identification-robust inference methods exist that can be used in conjunction with the ML estimators for these models. In this paper we propose ML based inference methods for panel AR(1) models with arbitrary initial conditions and heteroskedasticity that are robust to the strength of identification. We show that (Quasi)…

固定效应动态面板 Logit 模型的根号 n 一致条件极大似然估计AI 解读

In this paper we first propose a root-n-consistent Conditional Maximum Likelihood (CML) estimator for all the common parameters in the panel logit AR(p) model with strictly exogenous covariates and fixed effects. Our CML estimator (CMLE) converges in probability faster and is more easily computed than the kernel-weighted CMLE of Honoré and Kyriazidou (2000). Next, we propose a root-n-consistent CMLE for the coefficients of the exogenous covariates only. We also discuss new…
