QML Estimation of Dynamic Panel Data Models with Spatial Errors

چکیده
We propose quasi maximum likelihood (QML) estimation of dynamic panel models with spatial errors when the cross-sectional dimension n is large and the time dimension T is fixed. We consider both the random effects and fixed effects models and derive the limiting distributions of the QML estimators under different assumptions on the initial observations. We propose a residual-based bootstrap method for estimating the standard errors of the QML estimators. Monte Carlo simulation shows that both the QML estimators and the bootstrap standard errors perform well in finite samples under a correct assumption on initial observations, but may perform poorly when this assumption is

Quasi Maximum-Likelihood Estimation of Dynamic Panel Data Models
This paper establishes the almost sure convergence and asymptotic normality of levels and differenced quasi maximum-likelihood (QML) estimators of dynamic panel data models. The QML estimators are robust with respect to initial conditions, conditional and time-series heteroskedasticity, and misspecification of the log-likelihood. The paper also provides an ECME algorithm for calculating levels ...
متن کاملQuasi Maximum Likelihood Estimation of Spatial Models with Heterogeneous Coefficients∗
This paper considers spatial autoregressive panel data models and extends their analysis to the case where the spatial coefficients differ across the spatial units. It derives conditions under which the spatial coefficients are identified and develops a quasi maximum likelihood (QML) estimation procedure. Under certain regularity conditions, it is shown that the QML estimators of individual spa...
متن کاملSpatial Correlation Testing for Errors in Panel Data Regression Model
To investigate the spatial error correlation in panel regression models, various statistical hypothesizes and testings have been proposed. This paper, within introduction to spatial panel data regression model, existence of spatial error correlation and random effects is investigated by a joint Lagrange Multiplier test, which simultaneously tests their existence. For this purpose, joint Lagrang...
متن کاملAsymptotics and Bootstrap for Random-Effects Panel Data Transformation Models∗
This paper investigates the asymptotic properties of quasi-maximum likelihood (QML) estimators for random-effects panel data transformation models where both the response and (some of) the covariates are subject to transformations for inducing normality, flexible functional form, homoskedasticity, and simple model structure. We develop a QML-type procedure for model estimation and inference. We...
متن کاملBayesian Quantile Regression with Adaptive Lasso Penalty for Dynamic Panel Data
Dynamic panel data models include the important part of medicine, social and economic studies. Existence of the lagged dependent variable as an explanatory variable is a sensible trait of these models. The estimation problem of these models arises from the correlation between the lagged depended variable and the current disturbance. Recently, quantile regression to analyze dynamic pa...
