Several procedures have been proposed for testing goodness-of-fit to the error distribution in nonparametric regression models. The null distribution of the associated test statistics is usually approximated by means of a parametric bootstrap which ...

Generalized spectral tests for the martingale difference hypothesis [PDF]
^aThis article proposes a test for the Martingale Difference Hypothesis (MDH) using dependence measures related to the characteristic function. The MDH typically has been tested using the sample autocorrelations or in the spectral domain using the ...

Problematic Internet Use in Frontotemporal Dementia: A Case Series
ABSTRACT The present study investigated problematic internet use (PIU) among 61 patients with frontotemporal dementia (FTD) compared to a cohort of 354 patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer's dementia. PIU was identified in 22.9% of FTD patients compared to only 0.8% of AD patients (p < 0.001). Behaviors included compulsive social

Classifier-Based Nonparametric Sequential Hypothesis Testing
We consider the problem of constructing sequential power-one tests where the null and alternative classes are specified indirectly through historical or offline data. More specifically, given an offline dataset consisting of observations from $L+1$ distributions $\{P_0, P_1, \ldots, P_L\}$, and a new unlabeled data stream $\{X_t: t \geq 1\} \overset{i ...

Bandwidth Selection in Nonparametric Kernel Testing [PDF]
We propose a sound approach to bandwidth selection in nonparametric kernel testing. The main idea is to find an Edgeworth expansion of the asymptotic distribution of the test concerned.

Objective To investigate the association between rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and coronary artery calcium (CAC) prevalence, incidence, and progression over four years in adults without prior cardiovascular disease. Methods A case‐cohort study within the Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Adult Health (ELSA‐Brasil) included 585 participants (86 patients with ...

Forecast Combinations in the Presence of Structural Breaks: Evidence from U.S. Equity Markets
Realized volatility, building on the theory of a simple continuous time process, has recently received attention as a nonparametric ex-post estimate of the return variation. This paper addresses the problem of parameter instability due to the presence of

Induced Innovation in U.S. Agriculture: Time-series, Direct Econometric, and Nonparametric Tests [PDF]
The hypothesis of induced innovation is tested for U.S. agriculture using a high-quality state-level panel data set and three disparate testing techniques – time series, direct econometric, and nonparametric.

Nonparametric Inference on Structural Breaks [PDF]
This paper proposes estimators of location and size of structural breaks in a, possibly dynamic, nonparametric regression model. The structural breaks can be located at given periods of time and/or they can be explained by the values taken by some ...
