Canonical correlation analysis of stochastic trends via functional approximation
通过函数逼近对随机趋势进行典型相关分析
This paper proposes a novel approach for semiparametric inference on the number $s$ of common trends and their loading matrix $ψ$ in $I(1)/I(0)$ systems. It combines functional approximation of limits of random walks and canonical correlations analysis, performed between the $p$ observed time series of length $T$ and the first $K$ discretized elements of an $L^2$ basis. Tests and selection criteria on $s$, and estimators and tests on $ψ$ are proposed; their properties are…
