Sieve Empirical Likelihood Ratio Tests for Nonparametric Functions
Generalized likelihood ratio statistics have been proposed in Fan, Zhang and Zhang [Ann. Statist. 29 (2001) 153–193] as a generally applicable method for testing nonparametric hypotheses about nonparametric functions. The likelihood ratio statistics are constructed based on the assumption that the distributions of stochastic errors are in a certain parametric family. We extend their work to the...
متن کاملNonparametric Bootstrap for Quasi-Likelihood Ratio Tests∗
We introduce a nonparametric bootstrap approach for Quasi-Likelihood Ratio type tests of nonlinear restrictions. Our method applies to extremum estimators, such as quasimaximum likelihood and generalized method of moments estimators. Unlike existing parametric bootstrap procedures for Quasi-Likelihood Ratio type tests, our procedure constructs bootstrap samples in a fully nonparametric way. We ...
متن کاملLikelihood Ratio Tests for Monotone Functions
Ve study the problem of testing for equality at a fixed point in the setting of nonparametric estimation of a monotone function. The likelihood ratio test for this hypothesis is derived in the particular case of interval censoring (or current status data) and its limiting distribution is obtained. The limiting distribution is that of the integral of the difference of the squared slope processes...
متن کاملObtaining Reliable Likelihood Ratio Tests from Simulated Likelihood Functions
MIXED MODELS Models allowing for continuous heterogeneity by assuming that value of one or more parameters follow a specified distribution have become increasingly popular. This is known as 'mixing' parameters, and it is standard practice by researchers--and the default option in many statistical programs--to base test statistics for mixed models on simulations using asymmetric draws (e.g. Halt...
