网络连边误分类下的社会网络模型估计AI 解读

We propose an adjusted 2SLS estimator for social network models when reported binary network links are misclassified (some zeros reported as ones and vice versa) due, e.g., to survey respondents' recall errors, or lapses in data input. We show misclassification adds new sources of correlation between the regressors and errors, which makes all covariates endogenous and invalidates conventional estimators. We resolve these issues by constructing a novel estimator of…

连续发生的 Fréchet 极端事件的非平稳建模流程AI 解读

Accurate estimation of the frequency and magnitude of successive extreme events in energy demand is critical for strategic resource planning. Traditional approaches based on extreme value theory (EVT) are typically limited to modelling isolated extreme events and struggle to capture the dynamics of temporally clustered extremes, such as those driven by prolonged extreme weather events. These limitations are exacerbated by the scarcity of historical data and computational…

灵活响应降维的非参数包络方法AI 解读

Envelope methods improve the estimation efficiency in multivariate linear regression by identifying and separating the material and immaterial parts of the responses or the predictors and estimating the regression coefficients using only the material part. Though envelopes have been extended to other models, such as GLMs, these extensions still largely fall under the restrictive parametric modeling framework. In this paper, we introduce a flexible, nonparametric extension of…

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…

使用 Stata 进行考虑风险偏好的多行动最优政策学习AI 解读

This paper presents the Stata community-distributed command "opl_ma_fb" (and the companion command "opl_ma_vf"), for implementing the first-best Optimal Policy Learning (OPL) algorithm to estimate the best treatment assignment given the observation of an outcome, a multi-action (or multi-arm) treatment, and a set of observed covariates (features). It allows for different risk preferences in decision-making (i.e., risk-neutral, linear risk-averse, and quadratic risk-averse),…

随机试验中外部对照数据的稳健整合AI 解读

One approach for increasing the efficiency of randomized trials is the use of "external controls" -- individuals who received the control treatment studied in the trial during routine practice or in prior experimental studies. Existing external control methods, however, can be biased if the populations underlying the trial and the external control data are not exchangeable. Here, we characterize a randomization-aware class of treatment effect estimators in the population…

利用核即期波动率估计量估计积分波动率泛函AI 解读

For a multidimensional Itô semimartingale, we consider the problem of estimating integrated volatility functionals. Jacod and Rosenbaum (2013) studied a plug-in type of estimator based on a Riemann sum approximation of the integrated functional and a spot volatility estimator with a forward uniform kernel. Motivated by recent results that show that spot volatility estimators with general two-side kernels of unbounded support are more accurate, in this paper, an estimator…

面向代谢物响应变量的营养信息贝叶斯变量选择模型AI 解读

Understanding the pathways through which diet affects human metabolism is a central task in nutritional epidemiology. This article proposes novel methodology to identify food items associated with blood metabolites in two cohorts of healthcare professionals. We analyze 30 food intake variables that exhibit relationship structure through their correlations and nutritional attributes. The metabolic responses include 244 compounds measured by mass spectrometry, presenting…

粗化贝叶斯 VAR：修正 BVAR 的模型误设AI 解读

Model misspecification in multivariate econometric models can strongly influence estimates of quantities of interest such as structural parameters, forecast distributions or responses to structural shocks, even more so if higher-order forecasts or responses are considered, due to parameter Model misspecification in multivariate econometric models can strongly influence estimates of quantities of interest such as structural parameters, forecast distributions or responses to…

面向组织组织学条件泊松分布生物标志物的 POI-SIMEX 方法AI 解读

Covariate measurement error in regression analysis is an important issue that has been studied extensively under the classical additive and the Berkson error models. Here, we consider cases where covariates are derived from tumor tissue histology, and in particular tissue microarrays. In such settings, biomarkers are evaluated from tissue cores that are subsampled from a larger tissue section so that these biomarkers are only estimates of the true cell densities. The…

基于贝叶斯圆周函数模型的抗噪声相位连接估计AI 解读

The phase locking value (PLV) is a widely used measure to detect phase connectivity. Main drawbacks of the standard PLV are it can be sensitive to noisy observations and does not provide uncertainty measures under finite samples. To overcome the difficulty, we propose a model-based PLV through nonparametric statistical modeling. Specifically, since the discrete time series of phase can be regarded as a functional observation taking values on circle, we employ a Bayesian…

Largevars：检验大型 VAR 协整关系的 R 包AI 解读

Cointegration is a property of multivariate time series that determines whether its non-stationary, growing components have a stationary linear combination. Largevars R package conducts a cointegration test for high-dimensional vector autoregressions of order k based on the large N, T asymptotics of Bykhovskaya and Gorin (2022, 2025). The implemented test is a modification of the Johansen likelihood ratio test. In the absence of cointegration the test converges to the…

理想试验：在目标试验模拟与随机试验中平衡因果目标的相关性和可行性AI 解读

Causal inference is the goal of randomized trials and many observational studies. The first step in a formal causal inference framework is to define the causal estimand, and in both types of study this can be intuitively defined as the effect in an ideal trial: a hypothetical perfect randomized experiment (with representative sample, perfect adherence, etc.). The target trial framework is increasingly used for causal inference in observational studies, but clarity is lacking…

二项时间序列的序贯变点检测AI 解读

A binomial time series describes binary behaviors of individuals within a group, which depend on group behaviors in the past. Binomial time series data is widely applied in fields such as infection tracking and behavior analysis. In this paper, we introduce a generalized Binomial AR($p$) model with exogenous variables based on Generalized Linear Model (GLM), prove the statistical properties of the model when $p = 1$, and provide a parameter estimation method. Then, we…

粗糙随机波动率模型中 Hurst 参数估计的收敛速度AI 解读

In [Han \& Schied, 2023, \textit{arXiv 2307.02582}], an easily computable scale-invariant estimator $\widehat{\mathscr{R}}^s_n$ was constructed to estimate the Hurst parameter of the drifted fractional Brownian motion $X$ from its antiderivative. This paper extends this convergence result by proving that $\widehat{\mathscr{R}}^s_n$ also consistently estimates the Hurst parameter when applied to the antiderivative of $g \circ X$ for a general nonlinear function $g$. We also…

融合自适应最小生成树的Fused Lasso回归及其在热盐环流中的应用AI 解读

This article introduces a new methodology model both discrete and continuous spatial heterogeneity simultaneously with an application in detection of hyper-plain in thermohaline circulation. To enable the data-driven detection of spatial boundaries with heterogeneity, we constructs an adaptive minimum spanning tree guided by both spatial proximity and coefficient dissimilarity, and combines both a spatial fused regularization and LASSO-type regularization to estimate the…

时间序列一般关联的度量：CODEC 在自回归滞后识别中的改造与评估AI 解读

Identifying the number of lags to include in an autoregressive model remains an open research problem due to the computational burden of treating it as a hyperparameter, especially in complex models. This study explores model-agnostic association measures, including Pearson, Spearman, and an adaptation of the recently proposed conditional dependence coefficient (CODEC), for guiding lag selection in time series. We adapt and implement the CODEC-based Feature Ordering by…

工具变量回归中条件似然比检验的精确渐近分布AI 解读

We derive the exact asymptotic distribution of the conditional likelihood-ratio test in instrumental variables regression under weak instrument asymptotics and for multiple endogenous variables. The distribution is conditional on all eigenvalues of the concentration matrix, rather than only the smallest eigenvalue as in an existing asymptotic upper bound. This exact characterization leads to a substantially more powerful test if there are differently identified endogenous…

随机拟蒙特卡洛特征用于核近似AI 解读

We investigate the application of randomized quasi-Monte Carlo (RQMC) methods in random feature approximations for kernel-based learning. Compared to the classical Monte Carlo (MC) approach \citep{rahimi2007random}, RQMC improves the deterministic approximation error bound from $O_P(1/\sqrt{M})$ to $O(1/M)$ (up to logarithmic factors), matching the rate achieved by quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) methods \citep{huangquasi}. Beyond the deterministic error bound guarantee, we further…

多元空间自回归模型的空间权重矩阵选择与模型平均AI 解读

In this paper, we focus on the model specification problem in multivariate spatial econometric models when a candidate set for the spatial weights matrix is available. We propose a model selection method for the multivariate spatial autoregressive model, when the true spatial weights matrix may not be in the candidates. We show that the selected estimator is asymptotically optimal in the sense of minimizing the squared loss. If the candidate set contains the true spatial…

市场低谷预测：具有因果解释的机器学习方法AI 解读

This paper provides robust, new evidence on the causal drivers of market troughs. We demonstrate that conclusions about these triggers are critically sensitive to model specification, moving beyond restrictive linear models with a flexible DML average partial effect causal machine learning framework. Our robust estimates identify the volatility of options-implied risk appetite and market liquidity as key causal drivers, relationships misrepresented or obscured by simpler…

网络实验中的设计不确定性与网络抽样不确定性AI 解读

Ordinary least squares (OLS) estimators are widely used in network experiments to estimate spillover effects. We study the causal interpretation of, and inference for the OLS estimator under both design-based uncertainty from random treatment assignment and sampling-based uncertainty in network links. We show that correlations among regressors that capture the exposure to neighbors' treatments can induce contamination bias, preventing OLS from aggregating heterogeneous…

WISE：基于加权相似度汇总的序列独立性检验AI 解读

We propose a nonparametric test for serial independence that aggregates pairwise similarities of observations with lag-dependent weights. The resulting statistic is powerful to general forms of temporal dependence, including nonlinear and uncorrelated alternatives, and applies to ultra-high-dimensional and non-Euclidean data. We derive asymptotic normality under both permutation and population nulls, and establish consistency in classical large-sample and…

线性动态面板模型中的异质性处理效应AI 解读

We study the identification of heterogeneous, intertemporal treatment effects (TE) when potential outcomes depend on past treatments. First, applying a dynamic panel data model to observed outcomes, we show that an instrumental variable (IV) version of the estimand in Arellano and Bond (1991) recovers a non-convex (negatively weighted) aggregate of TE plus non-vanishing trends. We then provide conditions on sequential exchangeability (SE) of treatment and on TE heterogeneity…
