Effects of data dimension on empirical likelihood

چکیده
We evaluate the effects of data dimension on the asymptotic normality of the empirical likelihood ratio for high-dimensional data under a general multivariate model. Data dimension and dependence among components of the multivariate random vector affect the empirical likelihood directly through the trace and the eigenvalues of the covariance matrix. The growth rates to infinity we obtain for the data dimension improve the rates of Hjort et al. (2008).

Empirical Likelihood Approach and its Application on Survival Analysis
A number of nonparametric methods exist when studying the population and its parameters in the situation when the distribution is unknown. Some of them such as "resampling bootstrap method" are based on resampling from an initial sample. In this article empirical likelihood approach is introduced as a nonparametric method for more efficient use of auxiliary information to construct...
متن کاملEmpirical Likelihood for High Dimensional Data
Since Owen (1988, 1990) introduced the empirical likelihood method for constructing a confidence interval or region for the mean of a random variable or vector, empirical likelihood methods have been extended to many different settings. Recently, Hjort, McKeague and Van Keilegom (2004) extended the standard empirical likelihood method to the case where the data dimension depends on the sample s...
متن کاملModified signed log-likelihood test for the coefficient of variation of an inverse Gaussian population
In this paper, we consider the problem of two sided hypothesis testing for the parameter of coefficient of variation of an inverse Gaussian population. An approach used here is the modified signed log-likelihood ratio (MSLR) method which is the modification of traditional signed log-likelihood ratio test. Previous works show that this proposed method has third-order accuracy whereas the traditi...
متن کاملEmpirical Likelihood for Multidimensional Linear Model with Missing Responses
Imputation is a popular technique for handling missing data especially for plenty of missing values. Usually, the empirical log-likelihood ratio statistic under imputation is asymptotically scaled chi-squared because the imputing data are not i.i.d. Recently, a bias-corrected technique is used to study linear regression model with missing response data, and the resulting empirical likelihood ra...
متن کاملOn the coverage bound problem of empirical likelihood methods for time series
The upper bounds on the coverage probabilities of the confidence regions based on blockwise empirical likelihood and non-standard expansive empirical likelihood methods for time series data are investigated via studying the probability of violating the convex hull constraint.The large sample bounds are derived on the basis of the pivotal limit of the blockwise empirical log-likelihood ratio obt...
