A Consistent Heteroskedasticity‐Robust LM‐Type Specification Test for Semiparametric Models

open access: yesJournal of Applied Econometrics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article develops a heteroskedasticity‐robust Lagrange Multiplier‐type specification test for semiparametric regression models. The test is able to detect a wide class of deviations from the null hypothesis. The test statistic is based on the estimates from the restricted semiparametric model, can be computed in a regression‐based way, and

Wasting syndrome as a predictive factor for adverse health outcomes in older adults: A prospective cohort study

open access: yesNutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Wasting syndrome (WS), also known as unintentional weight loss, is defined as a 5% reduction in body weight over a period of 6–12 months. The mortality associated with WS in older adults has not been adequately explored. The objective of this study was to investigate this relationship in hospitalized older individuals over an 18‐month period ...

Estimation in semiparametric quantile factor models [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2017
We propose an estimation methodology for a semiparametric quantile factor panel model. We provide tools for inference that are robust to the existence of moments and to the form of weak cross-sectional dependence in the idiosyncratic error term. We apply our method to daily stock return data.

Reducing data processing effort in camera trap density estimation: Extending the REST model by explicitly modelling animal detection processes

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Accurate and reliable estimation of wildlife population density is fundamental to effective conservation and management. While camera traps show potential for monitoring ground‐dwelling mammal densities, labour‐intensive data processing remains a significant constraint. Ideally, conservation efforts would benefit from the continuous monitoring

Simultaneous detection of gradual and abrupt structural changes in Bayesian longitudinal modelling using entropy and model fit measures

open access: yesBritish Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Although individuals may exhibit both gradual and abrupt changes in their dynamic properties as shaped by both slowly accumulating influences and acute events, existing statistical frameworks offer limited capacity for the simultaneous detection and representation of these distinct change patterns.

Moment Restriction-based Econometric Methods: An Overview [PDF]

open access: yes
Moment restriction-based econometric modelling is a broad class which includes the parametric, semiparametric and nonparametric approaches. Moments and conditional moments themselves are nonparametric quantities.

Outliers in Semi-Parametric Estimation of Treatment Effects

open access: yesEconometrics, 2021
Outliers can be particularly hard to detect, creating bias and inconsistency in the semi-parametric estimates. In this paper, we use Monte Carlo simulations to demonstrate that semi-parametric methods, such as matching, are biased in the presence of ...

Identification and Estimation of Large Network Games with Private Link Information

open access: yesInternational Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We study the identification and estimation of large network games in which individuals choose continuous actions while holding private information about their links and payoffs. Extending the framework of Galeotti et al., we build a tractable empirical model of such network games and show that the parameters in individual payoffs are ...

Semiparametric multivariate volatility models [PDF]

open access: yes
Estimation of multivariate volatility models is usually carried out by quasi maximum likelihood (QMLE), for which consistency and asymptotic normality have been proven under quite general conditions. However, there may be a substantial efficiency loss of

Semiparametric Estimation of Fractional Cointegration. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
A semiparametric bivariate fractionally cointegrated system is considered, integration orders possibly being unknown and I (0) unobservable inputs having nonparametric spectral density. Two kinds of estimate of the cointegrating parameter ν are considered, one involving inverse spectral weighting and the other, unweighted statistics with a spectral ...
