Specification testing in Hawkes models
Gresnigt, Francine; Kole, Erik; Franses, Philip Hans - 2015
We propose various specification tests for Hawkes models based on the Lagrange Multiplier (LM) principle. Hawkes models can be used to model the occurrence of extreme events in financial markets. Our specific testing focus is on extending a univariate model to a multivariate model, that is, we...

A test for instrument validity
Kitagawa, Toru - 2014 - This draft: August, 2014
This paper develops a specification test for instrument validity in the heterogeneous treatment effect model with a binary treatment and a discrete instrument. The strongest testable implication for instrument validity is given by the condition for nonnegativity of point-identifiable complier's...

A discrete model for bootstrap iteration
Davidson, Russell - 2015
In an attempt to free bootstrap theory from the shackles of asymptotic considerations, this paper studies the … possibility of justifying, or validating, the bootstrap, not by letting the sample size tend to infinity, but by considering the … sequence of bootstrap P values obtained by iterating the bootstrap. The main idea of the paper is that, if this sequence …

Testing macro models by indirect inference : a survey for users
Le, Vo Phuong Mai; Meenagh, David; Minford, Patrick; … - 2015
With Monte Carlo experiments on models in widespread use we examine the performance of indirect inference (II) tests of DSGE models in small samples. We compare these tests with ones based on direct inference (using the Likelihood Ratio, LR). We find that both tests have power so that a...

Small sample performance of indirect inference on DSGE models
Le, Vo Phuong Mai; Meenagh, David; Minford, Patrick; … - 2015
Using Monte Carlo experiments, we examine the performance of indirect inference tests of DSGE models in small samples, using various models in widespread use. We compare these with tests based on direct inference (using the Likelihood Ratio). We find that both tests have power so that a...

Testing DSGE models by indirect inference and other methods : some Monte Carlo experiments
Le, Vo Phuong Mai; Meenagh, David; Minford, Patrick; … - 2012
Using Monte Carlo experiments, we examine the performance of Indirect Inference tests of DSGE models, usually versions of the Smets-Wouters New Keynesian model of the US postwar period. We compare these with tests based on direct inference (using the Likelihood Ratio), and on the Del...

Bootstrap inference under cross-sectional dependence
Conley, Timothy G.; Gonçalves, Sílvia; Kim, Min Seong; … - In: Quantitative economics : QE ; journal of the … 14 (2023) 2, pp. 511-569
In this paper, we introduce a method of generating bootstrap samples with unknown patterns of cross …-sectional/spatial dependence, which we call the spatial dependent wild bootstrap. This method is a spatial counterpart to the wild dependent … bootstrap of Shao (2010) and generates data by multiplying a vector of independently and identically distributed external …
