We consider estimation of a linear or nonparametric additive model in which a few coefficients or additive components are "large" and may be objects of substantive interest, whereas others are "small" but not necessarily zero. The number of small coefficients or additive components may exceed...

This paper analyses the constant elasticity of volatility (CEV) model suggested by [6]. The CEV model without mean reversion is shown to be the inverse Box-Cox transformation of integrated processes asymptotically. It is demonstrated that the maximum likelihood estimator of the power parameter...

To search significant variables which can illustrate the abnormal return of stock price, this research is generally based on the Fama-French five-factor model to develop a multi-factor model. We evaluated the existing factors in the empirical study of Chinese stock market and examined for new...
