Empirical likelihood-based tests for stochastic ordering.
This paper develops an empirical likelihood approach to testing for the presence of stochastic ordering among univariate distributions based on independent random samples from each distribution. The proposed test statistic is formed by integrating a localized empirical likelihood statistic with respect to the empirical distribution of the pooled sample. The asymptotic null distribution of this ...
متن کاملTesting for uniform stochastic ordering via empirical likelihood
This paper develops an empirical likelihood approach to testing for the presence of uniform stochastic ordering (or hazard rate ordering) among univariate distributions based on independent random samples from each distribution. The proposed test statistic is formed by integrating a localized empirical likelihood statistic with respect to the empirical distribution of the pooled sample. The asy...
متن کاملEmpirical Likelihood Estimators for Stochastic Discount Factors
Hansen and Jagannathan (HJ, 1991) provided bounds on the volatility of Stochastic Discount Factors (SDF) that proved extremely useful to diagnose and test asset pricing models. This nonparametric bound reflects a duality between the meanstandard deviation frontier for SDFs and the mean-variance frontier for portfolios of asset returns. We extend this fundamental contribution by proposing inform...
متن کاملAsymptotic and Bootstrap Tests for Infinite Order Stochastic Dominance via the Method of Empirical Likelihood
We develop asymptotic and bootstrap tests for stochastic dominance of the infinite order for distributions with known common support the set of non-negative real numbers. These tests posit a null of dominance, which is characterized by an inequality in the corresponding Laplace transforms of the distribution functions. The bootstrap procedure uses a bootstrap data generating process that satisf...
متن کاملSieve-based Empirical Likelihood under Semiparametric Conditional Moment Restrictions
In this paper we propose a new Sieve-based Locally Weighted Conditional Empirical Likelihood (SLWCEL) estimator for models of conditional moment restrictions containing nite dimensional unknown parameters and in nite dimensional unknown functions h. The SLWCEL is a one-step information-theoretic alternative to the Sieve Minimum Distance estimator analyzed by Ai and Chen (2003). We approximate ...
