In this paper, we introduce a regime switching panel data model with interactive fixed effects. We propose a maximum likelihood estimation method and develop an expectation and conditional maximization algorithm to estimate the unknown parameters. Simulation results show that the algorithm works...

This paper considers modeling and detecting structure breaks associated with cross-sectional dependence for large dimensional panel data models, which are popular in many fields including economics and finance. We propose a dynamic factor structure to measure the degree of cross-sectional...

In this paper, we study semiparametric estimation for a single-index panel data model where the nonlinear link function varies among the individuals. We propose using the so-called refined minimum average variance estimation based on a local linear smoothing method to estimate both the...

In this paper, we study a nonlinear panel data model with time-varying regression coefficients associated with an additive factor structure. In our model, factor loadings are unknown functions of observable variables which can capture time-varying and heterogeneous covariate information. A...

In this paper, we investigate binary response models for heterogeneous panel data with interactive fixed effects by allowing both the cross sectional dimension and the temporal dimension to diverge. From a practical point of view, the proposed framework can be applied to predict the probability...
