Robustness Procedures in Economic Growth Regression Models
A central question for empirical economics, particularly economic growth, is which explanatory variables to include and exclude in the regressions. This paper aims to identify variables strongly correlated with provincial income growth in the Philippines by applying robustness procedures in determining which variables are strongly correlated with income growth. The extreme bound analysis (EBA) ...
متن کاملRobustness of reweighted Least Squares Kernel Based Regression
Kernel Based Regression (KBR) minimizes a convex risk over a possibly infinite dimensional reproducing kernel Hilbert space. Recently it was shown that KBR with a least squares loss function may have some undesirable properties from a robustness point of view: even very small amounts of outliers can dramatically affect the estimates. KBR with other loss functions is more robust, but often gives...
متن کاملPEDOMODELS FITTING WITH FUZZY LEAST SQUARES REGRESSION
Pedomodels have become a popular topic in soil science and environmentalresearch. They are predictive functions of certain soil properties based on other easily orcheaply measured properties. The common method for fitting pedomodels is to use classicalregression analysis, based on the assumptions of data crispness and deterministic relationsamong variables. In modeling natural systems such as s...
متن کاملStrong consistency of least-squares estimates in regression models.
A general theorem on the limiting behavior of certain weighted sums of i.i.d. random variables is obtained. This theorem is then applied to prove the strong consistency of least-squares estimates in linear and nonlinear regression models with i.i.d. errors under minimal assumptions on the design and weak moment conditions on the errors.
متن کاملLeast Squares Percentage Regression
Percentage error (relative to the observed value) is often felt to be more meaningful than the absolute error in isolation. The mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) is widely used in forecasting as a basis of comparison, and regression models can be fitted which minimize this criterion. Unfortunately, no formula exists for the coefficients, and models for a given data set may not be unique. We...
