We propose a modification of kernel time series regression estimators that improves efficiency when the innovation process is autocorrelated. The procedure is based on a pre-whitening transformation of the dependent variable that has to be estimated from the data. We establish the asymptotic...

This paper is concerned with developing a semiparametric panel model to explain the trend in UK temperatures and other weather outcomes over the last century. We work with the monthly averaged maximum and minimum temperatures observed at the twenty six Meteorological Office stations. The data is...

This paper studies robust inference in unit root and cointegration models. The analysis covers a range of important inference problems including testing stationarity against unit roots, testing for structure change in nonstationary regressions, and testing for cointegration. We analyze these...
