In this paper, we consider some specification testing problems in nonlinear time series models with nonstationarity. We propose using a nonparametric kernel test for specifying whether the regression function is of a known parametric nonlinear form. The power function of the proposed...

In this paper, we consider a specification testing problem in nonlinear time series models with nonstationary regressors and propose using a nonparametric kernel-based test statistic. The nullasymptotics for the proposed nonparametric test statistic have been well developed in the existing...

In this paper, we consider a specification testing problem in nonlinear time series models with nonstationary regressors, and we propose using a nonparametric kernel‐based test statistic. The null asymptotics for the proposed nonparametric test statistic have been well developed in the...

In this paper, we consider both estimation and testing problems in a nonlinear time series model with nonstationarity. A nonparametric estimation method is proposed to estimate a sequence of nonparametric “distance functions”. We also propose a test statistic to test whether the regression...
