一般回归误差假设下无岭最小二乘估计量的预测与估计风险AI 解读

In recent years, there has been a significant growth in research focusing on minimum $\ell_2$ norm (ridgeless) interpolation least squares estimators. However, the majority of these analyses have been limited to an unrealistic regression error structure, assuming independent and identically distributed errors with zero mean and common variance. In this paper, we explore prediction risk as well as estimation risk under more general regression error assumptions, highlighting…

因子驱动的双区制回归AI 解读

We propose a novel two-regime regression model where regime switching is driven by a vector of possibly unobservable factors. When the factors are latent, we estimate them by the principal component analysis of a panel data set. We show that the optimization problem can be reformulated as mixed integer optimization, and we present two alternative computational algorithms. We derive the asymptotic distribution of the resulting estimator under the scheme that the threshold…

稀疏 HP 滤波：识别 COVID-19 接触率的折点AI 解读

In this paper, we estimate the time-varying COVID-19 contact rate of a Susceptible-Infected-Recovered (SIR) model. Our measurement of the contact rate is constructed using data on actively infected, recovered and deceased cases. We propose a new trend filtering method that is a variant of the Hodrick-Prescott (HP) filter, constrained by the number of possible kinks. We term it the $\textit{sparse HP filter}$ and apply it to daily data from five countries: Canada, China,…

稀疏结构的结构变化AI 解读

In the high-dimensional sparse modeling literature, it has been crucially assumed that the sparsity structure of the model is homogeneous over the entire population. That is, the identities of important regressors are invariant across the population and across the individuals in the collected sample. In practice, however, the sparsity structure may not always be invariant in the population, due to heterogeneity across different sub-populations. We consider a general,…
