基于经验分位数的估计量的渐近性质AI 解读

We consider inference for parameters of the form $θ_0 = E[F_Y^{-1}\circ F_Z(X)]$ for some variables $X$, $Y$ and $Z$. Such parameters appear, in particular, in the ``changes-in-changes'' model of \cite{AtheyImbens2006}. We first establish that $\widehatθ$, a plug-in estimator of $θ_0$, is root-$n$ consistent and asymptotically normal under weaker conditions than those previously available, allowing in particular for unbounded variables. Next, we propose a new estimator of…

时变不可观测异质性离散化后的推断AI 解读

Approximating time-varying unobserved heterogeneity by discrete types has become increasingly popular in economics. Yet, provably valid post-clustering inference for target parameters in models that do not impose an exact group structure is still lacking. This paper fills this gap in the leading case of a linear panel data model with nonseparable two-way unobserved heterogeneity. Building on insights from the double machine learning literature, we propose a simple inference…

分组固定效应模型的简便低计算成本估计量AI 解读

This paper introduces a new fixed effects estimator for linear panel data models with clustered time patterns of unobserved heterogeneity. The method avoids non-convex and combinatorial optimization by combining a preliminary consistent estimator of the slope coefficient, an agglomerative pairwise-differencing clustering of cross-sectional units, and a pooled ordinary least squares regression. Asymptotic guarantees are established in a framework where $T$ can grow at any…
