稀疏市场—产品冲击下的离散选择需求模型估计AI 解读

When credible instruments are scarce or estimates hinge on instrument choice, an alternative to the leading Berry--Levinsohn--Pakes (BLP) approach to demand estimation with aggregate data can be useful. We propose a Bayesian random-coefficients discrete-choice demand estimator that jointly recovers preference parameters and market--product demand shocks under a sparsity restriction, without requiring instrumental variables. Shrinkage priors select a sparse set of active…

错位实施双重差分中组别—时间—分层效应的贝叶斯估计AI 解读

Difference-in-Differences designs with staggered treatment adoption are widely used to study heterogeneous treatment effects across cohorts and time periods. We develop a probabilistic framework for estimating potentially high-dimensional ATT arrays that vary across cohorts, periods, and strata defined by baseline covariates. The framework jointly estimates subgroup-specific treatment effects through a unified likelihood-based model, stabilizing inference in sparse…

具有随机考虑集的多项响应模型的可扩展估计AI 解读

A common assumption in the fitting of unordered multinomial response models for $J$ mutually exclusive categories is that the responses arise from the same set of $J$ categories across subjects. However, when responses measure a choice made by the subject, it is more appropriate to condition the distribution of multinomial responses on a subject-specific consideration set, drawn from the power set of $\{1,2,\ldots,J\}$. This leads to a mixture of multinomial response models…

动态离散选择模型的半参数贝叶斯估计AI 解读

We propose a tractable semiparametric estimation method for structural dynamic discrete choice models. The distribution of additive utility shocks in the proposed framework is modeled by location-scale mixtures of extreme value distributions with varying numbers of mixture components. Our approach exploits the analytical tractability of extreme value distributions in the multinomial choice settings and the flexibility of the location-scale mixtures. We implement the Bayesian…

含结构突变的线性回归中贝叶斯推断的渐近性质AI 解读

This paper studies large sample properties of a Bayesian approach to inference about slope parameters $γ$ in linear regression models with a structural break. In contrast to the conventional approach to inference about $γ$ that does not take into account the uncertainty of the unknown break location $τ$, the Bayesian approach that we consider incorporates such uncertainty. Our main theoretical contribution is a Bernstein-von Mises type theorem (Bayesian asymptotic normality)…

收缩与稀疏估计的贝叶斯方法AI 解读

In all areas of human knowledge, datasets are increasing in both size and complexity, creating the need for richer statistical models. This trend is also true for economic data, where high-dimensional and nonlinear/nonparametric inference is the norm in several fields of applied econometric work. The purpose of this paper is to introduce the reader to the world of Bayesian model determination, by surveying modern shrinkage and variable selection algorithms and methodologies.…
