Focused information criterion and model averaging based on weighted composite quantile regression
We study the focused information criterion (FIC) and frequentist model averaging (FMA) and their application to post-model-selection inference for weighted composite quantile regression (WCQR) in the context of the additive partial linear models. With the nonparametric functions approximated by polynomial splines, we show that, under certain conditions, the asymptotic distribution of the FMA WC...
متن کاملModel selection and model averaging in phylogenetics: advantages of akaike information criterion and bayesian approaches over likelihood ratio tests.
Model selection is a topic of special relevance in molecular phylogenetics that affects many, if not all, stages of phylogenetic inference. Here we discuss some fundamental concepts and techniques of model selection in the context of phylogenetics. We start by reviewing different aspects of the selection of substitution models in phylogenetics from a theoretical, philosophical and practical poi...
متن کاملGeneralized Empirical Likelihood Estimators
In an effort to improve the small sample properties of generalized method of moments (GMM) estimators, a number of alternative estimators have been suggested. These include empirical likelihood (EL), continuous updating, and exponential tilting estimators. We show that these estimators share a common structure, being members of a class of generalized empirical likelihood (GEL) estimators. We us...
متن کاملOn Generalized Empirical Likelihood Methods
We introduce estimation and test procedures through divergence minimization for models satisfying linear constraints with unknown parameter. These procedures extend the empirical likelihood (EL) method and share common features with generalized empirical likelihood (GEL) approach. We treat the problems of existence and characterization of the divergence projections of probability measures on se...
متن کاملGeneralized Method of Moments and Empirical Likelihood
Generalized method of moments (GMM) estimation has become an important unifying framework for inference in econometrics in the last 20 years. It can be thought of as encompassing almost all of the common estimation methods, such as maximum likelihood, ordinary least squares, instrumental variables, and two-stage least squares, and nowadays is an important part of all advanced econometrics textb...
