对函数形式稳健的空间自回归双重／去偏机器学习推断AI 解读

Spatial autoregressive inference is typically conditional on the spatial weights matrix, W, even though the underlying interaction structure is often unknown and empirical conclusions can be sensitive to its specification. This paper develops double/debiased machine learning inference for low-dimensional SAR parameters when the spatial interaction operator is learned flexibly from potentially endogenous characteristics. Within a maintained admissible support, interaction…

有限样本 Cressie–Read 矩估计的风险最优曲率选择AI 解读

We propose a finite-sample risk-optimal selection criterion for Cressie-Read power divergence (CRPD) estimation in overidentified moment-based models. The CRPD family, dual to generalized empirical likelihood, is indexed by the power parameter $γ$. Although $γ$ is conventionally fixed at a researcher-chosen value, we argue that it should be interpreted as a data-tunable curvature parameter governing the finite-sample behavior of the CRPD objective. Through implied…

模型不确定性下的信息量：影子价格与岭惩罚AI 解读

We develop inference under model uncertainty due to weak, noisy, multiple candidate restrictions and theories, and nuisance control covariates. A unified framework is given with degrees of misspecification and corresponding shadow prices, based on a Lagrangian constrained optimization approach, and a data$-$driven tolerance parameter selected via a Stein$-$type (shrinkage) risk criterion. A debiasing step is based on Karush$-$Kuhn$-$Tucker conditions. We introduce individual…

检验空间动态面板模型中空间权重矩阵的内生性AI 解读

I propose Robust Rao's Score (RS) test statistic to determine endogeneity of spatial weights matrices in a spatial dynamic panel data (SDPD) model (Qu, Lee, and Yu, 2017). I firstly introduce the bias-corrected score function since the score function is not centered around zero due to the two-way fixed effects. I further adjust score functions to rectify the over-rejection of the null hypothesis under a presence of local misspecification in contemporaneous dependence over…
