检测显著预测变量的高维 Wild Bootstrap 最大值检验AI 解读

We construct a block bootstrap max-test for detecting the presence of significant predictors in a high dimensional setting, allowing for weakly dependent and heterogeneous (possibly non-stationary) data. The number of covariates to be screened may be large $p$ $>>$ $n$, and growing at an exponential rate, provided $\ln (p)$ $=$ $o(n^{a})$ for some $a$ $>$ $0$ that depends on memory decay and the growth of higher moments. We study the problem of correlation screening in a…

弱依赖高维数组的最大值大数定律及其应用AI 解读

We derive so-called weak and strong \textit{max-laws of large numbers} for $% \max_{1\leq i\leq k_{n}}|1/n\sum_{t=1}^{n}x_{i,n,t}|$ for zero mean stochastic triangular arrays $\{x_{i,n,t}$ $:$ $1$ $\leq $ $t$ $\leq n\}_{n\geq 1}$, with dimension counter $i$ $=$ $1,...,k_{n}$ and dimension $% k_{n}$ $\rightarrow $ $\infty $. Rates of convergence are also analyzed based on feasible sequences $\{k_{n}\}$. We work in three dependence settings: independence, Dedecker and Prieur's…

平均处理效应的厚尾稳健估计与推断AI 解读

We study the probability tail properties of Inverse Probability Weighting (IPW) estimators of the Average Treatment Effect (ATE) when there is limited overlap between the covariate distributions of the treatment and control groups. Under unconfoundedness of treatment assignment conditional on covariates, such limited overlap is manifested in the propensity score for certain units being very close (but not equal) to 0 or 1. This renders IPW estimators possibly heavy tailed,…

基于全局小波与自助法的协方差平稳性检验AI 解读

We propose a covariance stationarity test for an otherwise dependent and possibly globally non-stationary time series. We work in a generalized version of the new setting in Jin, Wang and Wang (2015), who exploit Walsh (1923) functions in order to compare sub-sample covariances with the full sample counterpart. They impose strict stationarity under the null, only consider linear processes under either hypothesis in order to achieve a parametric estimator for an inverted high…
