Empirical likelihood inference in autoregressive models with time-varying variances
Statistical Theory and Related Fields, 2022 This paper develops the empirical likelihood ( $ \mathrm {EL} $ ) inference procedure for parameters in autoregressive models with the error variances scaled by an unknown nonparametric time-varying function.

A selective review of statistical methods using calibration information from similar studies
Statistical Theory and Related Fields, 2022 In the era of big data, divide-and-conquer, parallel, and distributed inference methods have become increasingly popular. How to effectively use the calibration information from each machine in parallel computation has become a challenging task for ...

A Robust Version of the Empirical Likelihood Estimator
Mathematics, 2021 In this paper, we introduce a robust version of the empirical likelihood estimator for semiparametric moment condition models. This estimator is obtained by minimizing the modified Kullback–Leibler divergence, in its dual form, using truncated ...

Testing the Intercept of a Balanced Predictive Regression Model
Entropy, 2022 Testing predictability is known to be an important issue for the balanced predictive regression model. Some unified testing statistics of desirable properties have been proposed, though their validity depends on a predefined assumption regarding whether ...

Empirical Phi-discrepancies and quasi-empirical likelihood: exponential bounds
ESAIM: Proceedings and Surveys, 2015 We review some recent extensions of the so-called generalized empirical likelihood method, when the Kullback distance is replaced by some general convex divergence.

Improving Probability-Weighted Moment Methods for the Generalized Extreme Value Distribution
Revstat Statistical Journal, 2008 In 1985 Hosking et al. estimated with the so-called Probability-Weighted Moments (PWM) method the parameters of the Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) distribution, the latter being classically fitted to maxima of sequences of independent and identically ...

Empirical likelihood block bootstrapping [PDF]
Journal of Econometrics, 2011 Monte Carlo evidence has made it clear that asymptotic tests based on generalized method of moments (GMM) estimation have disappointing size. The problem is exacerbated when the moment conditions are serially correlated. Several block bootstrap techniques have been proposed to correct the problem, including Hall and Horowitz (1996) and Inoue and ...

Statistical Theory and Related Fields, 2022 Due to cost-effectiveness and high efficiency, two-phase case-control sampling has been widely used in epidemiology studies. We develop a semi-parametric empirical likelihood approach to two-phase case-control data under the logistic regression model. We

Empirical Likelihood for Random Sets [PDF]
Journal of the American Statistical Association, 2017 In many statistical applications, the observed data take the form of sets rather than points. Examples include bracket data in survey analysis, tumor growth and rock grain images in morphology analysis, and noisy measurements on the support function of a convex set in medical imaging and robotic vision.
