Testing for Weak Identification in Possibly Nonlinear Models
In this paper we propose a chi-square test for identification. Our proposed test statistic is based on the distance between two biascorrected shrinkage extremum estimators. The two estimators converge in probability to the same limit when identification is strong, and they converge weakly to different random variables when identification is weak. The proposed test is consistent not only for the...
متن کاملEfficient Tests under a Weak Convergence Assumption∗
The asymptotic validity of tests is usually established by making appropriate primitive assumptions, which imply the weak convergence of a specific function of the data, and an appeal to the continuous mapping theorem. This paper, instead, takes the weak convergence of some function of the data to a limiting random element as the starting point, and studies efficiency in the class of tests that...
متن کاملSemiparametric Tests of Conditional Moment Restrictions under Weak or Partial Identification∗
We propose two new semiparametric specification tests which test whether a vector of conditional moment conditions is satisfied for any vector of parameter values θ0. Unlike most existing tests, our tests are asymptotically valid under weak and/or partial identification and can accomodate discontinuities in the conditional moment functions. Our tests are moreover consistent provided that identi...
متن کاملOptimal Asymptotic Identification under Bounded Disturbances
This paper investigates the intrinsic limitation of identification of LTI systems using data corrupted by bounded disturbances, when the unknown plant is known to belong to a given model set. This is done by analyzing the optimal worst-case asymptotic error achievable by performing experiments using any bounded inputs and estimating the plant using any identification algorithm. The solution inv...
متن کاملAsymptotic Theory for Nonlinear Quantile Regression under Weak Dependence
This paper studies the asymptotic properties of the nonlinear quantile regression model under general assumptions on the error process, which is allowed to be heterogeneous and mixing. We derive the consistency and asymptotic normality of regression quantiles under mild assumptions. First-order asymptotic theory is completed by a discussion of consistent covariance estimation.
