Bootstrap Confidence Intervals for Multiple Change Points Based on Two-Stage Procedures

open access: yesEntropy
This paper investigates the construction of confidence intervals for multiple change points in linear regression models. First, we detect multiple change points by performing variable selection on blocks of the input sequence; second, we re-estimate ...

XTTEST3: Stata module to compute Modified Wald statistic for groupwise heteroskedasticity

open access: yes
xttest3 calculates a modified Wald statistic for groupwise heteroskedasticity in the residuals of a fixed effect regression model. It is for use after xtreg, fe or xtgls (with the default panels option).heteroskedasticity, panel data, cross-section time ...

Efficiency and Technology Gap in European Apple Production—A Metafrontier Model for Germany, Italy, and Poland

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT EU member states have exhibited varying rates of apple production growth. Technical efficiency (TE) estimation is suitable for identifying best‐practice farm performance. This study examined whether the development of the apple sector in Germany, Italy, and Poland was influenced by production efficiency, access to technology, as well as ...

Access to Finance and Innovation in the Canadian Food Processing

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Innovation is a presumed channel through which finance affects productivity, yet there is limited research testing the relationship between finance and innovation in the food manufacturing sector. The purpose of the paper is to explore the determinants (e.g., financing, R&D, firm size, expenditure on innovation) of the adoption of innovation ...

An exact, unified distributional characterization of statistics used to test linear hypotheses in simple regression models

open access: yes
The Wald, likelihood ratio and Lagrange multiplier test statistics are commonly used to test linear restrictions in regression models. It is shown that for testing these restrictions in the classical regression model, the exact densities of these test ...

Choice of the hypothesis matrix for using the Wald-type-statistic

open access: yesStatistics & Probability Letters
A widely used formulation for null hypotheses in the analysis of multivariate $d$-dimensional data is $\mathcal{H}_0: \boldsymbol{H} \boldsymbolθ =\boldsymbol{y}$ with $\boldsymbol{H}$ $\in\mathbb{R}^{m\times d}$, $\boldsymbolθ$ $\in \mathbb{R}^d$ and $\boldsymbol{y}\in\mathbb{R}^m$, where $m\leq d$. Here the unknown parameter vector $\boldsymbolθ$ can,
