Specification Testing in Nonparametric Instrumental Variables Estimation
In nonparametric instrumental variables estimation, the function being estimated is the solution to an integral equation. A solution may not exist if, for example, the instrument is not valid. This paper discusses the problem of testing the null hypothesis that a solution exists against the alternative that there is no solution. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for existence of a sol...
متن کاملInstrumental Variable Quantile Regression * †
Quantile regression is an increasingly important tool that estimates the conditional quantiles of a response Y given a vector of regressors D. It usefully generalizes Laplace’s median regression and can be used to measure the effect of covariates not only in the center of a distribution, but also in the upper and lower tails. For the linear quantile model defined by Y = D′γ(U) where D′γ(U) is s...
متن کاملModel Specification Testing in Nonparametric Time Series Regression with Nonstationarity
This paper considers a class of nonparametric autoregression models with nonstationarity in the mean and then a class of nonparametric time series regression models with nonstationarity in both the conditional mean and conditional variance. For the nonparametric autoregression case, we propose a nonparametric unit–root test for the conditional mean. For the nonparametric time series regression ...
متن کاملBayesian Nonparametric Modeling in Quantile Regression
We propose Bayesian nonparametric methodology for quantile regression modeling. In particular, we develop Dirichlet process mixture models for the error distribution in an additive quantile regression formulation. The proposed nonparametric prior probability models allow the data to drive the shape of the error density and thus provide more reliable predictive inference than models based on par...
متن کاملIterative Regularization in Nonparametric Instrumental Regression
We consider the nonparametric regression model with an additive error that is correlated with the explanatory variables. We suppose the existence of instrumental variables that are considered in this model for the identification and the estimation of the regression function. The nonparametric estimation by instrumental variables is an ill-posed linear inverse problem with an unknown but estimab...
