Semiparametric Single-Index Predictive Regression [PDF]
This paper studies a semiparametric single-index predictive regression model with multiple nonstationary predictors that exhibit co-movement behaviour. Orthogonal series expansion is employed to approximate the unknown link function in the model and the estimator is derived from an optimization under constraint.

Mitigating policy uncertainty: What financial markets reveal about firm‐level lobbying
Abstract Elections can lead to substantial policy changes and, thus, are a significant source of risk. Firms can respond to such policy uncertainty by lobbying, but it is hard to quantify whether they do so and, if so, how much lobbying benefits them. We construct a new dataset and leverage investors’ expectations of variability in stock returns in the

Regression analysis aims to determine the relationship between response variables and predictor variables. There are three approaches to estimate regression curves, there are parametric, nonparametric, and semiparametric regression.

Abstract Sensitivity analysis for unmeasured confounders is essential for assessing the robustness of causal mediation conclusions. Most existing methods rely on parametric assumptions, which are ill‐suited for machine learning‐based estimators that are not tied to specific parametric models.

Semiparametric regression during 2003–2007
Semiparametric regression is a fusion between parametric regression and nonparametric regression that integrates low-rank penalized splines, mixed model and hierarchical Bayesian methodology - thus allowing more streamlined handling of longitudinal and spatial correlation. We review progress in the field over the five-year period between 2003 and 2007.

Demand Shocks, Export Diversification, and Firm Performance During the Great Trade Collapse
ABSTRACT This paper analyzes the impact of external demand shocks from the 2008 to 2009 Great Trade Collapse on the performance of Chinese exporters and examines how export diversification mitigates these effects. Using Chinese Customs data merged with financial data from all listed Chinese firms, we construct firm‐specific demand shocks based on pre ...

Mixing It Up: Inflation at Risk
Abstract Understanding how risk factors shape the economic outlook is essential for guiding policy decisions. This paper develops a flexible framework that decomposes distributional risk forecasts of macro‐economic variables into underlying contributions and supports the construction of interpretable risk measures.

SEMIPARAMETRIC REGRESSION AND GRAPHICAL MODELS
SummarySemiparametric regression models that use spline basis functions with penalization have graphical model representations. This link is more powerful than previously established mixed model representations of semiparametric regression, as a larger class of models can be accommodated. Complications such as missingness and measurement error are more

Detection of Influential Observations in Semiparametric Regression Model
In this article, we consider the semiparametric regression model and examine influential observations which have undue effects on the estimators for this model.
