, residual-based bootstrap methods are introduced for asymptotically refined approximations to the finite sample critical values … conditions are not fully met, bootstrap may lead to unstable critical values that change significantly with the alternative …, whereas when all conditions are met, bootstrap critical values are very stable, approximate much better the finite sample …

In this paper, we consider sieve instrumental variable quantile regression (IVQR) estimation of functional coefficient … hypothesis, a sequence of local alternatives and global alternatives, and propose a wild-bootstrap procedure to obtain the … bootstrap p-values. A set of Monte Carlo simulations are conducted to evaluate the finite sample behavior of both the estimator …

It is well known that (quasi) MLE of dynamic panel data (DPD) models with short panels depends on the assumptions on the initial values; ignoring them or a wrong treatment of them will result in inconsistency or serious bias. This paper introduces a initial-condition free method for estimating...

In the presence of heteroskedasticity, Lin and Lee (2010) show that the quasi maximum likelihood (QML) estimators of spatial autoregressive models (SAR) can be inconsistent as a ‘necessary’ condition for consistency can be violated, and thus propose robust GMM estimators for the model. In...

The asymptotic distributions of the least squares estimator of the mean reversion parameter (κ) are developed in a general class of diffusion models under three sampling schemes, namely, longspan, in-fill and the combination of long-span and in-fill. The models have an affine structure in the...

Hypothesis testing using Bayes factors (BFs) is known not to be well dened under the improper prior. In the context of latent variable models, an additional problem with BFs is that they are difficult to compute. In this paper, a new Bayesian method, based on decision theory and the EM...
