In this article we examine how model selection in neural networks can be guided by statistical procedures such as hypotheses tests, information criteria and cross validation. The application of these methods in neural network models is discussed, paying attention especially to the identification...

This is a simulation-based warning note for practitioners who use the M GLS MGLS unit root tests in the context of structural change using different selection lag length criteria. With T=100 T=100 , we find severe oversize problems when using some criteria, while other criteria produce an...
