The Restricted Likelihood Ratio Test at the Boundary in Autoregressive Series
نویسندگان
چکیده
The restricted likelihood ratio test, RLRT, for the autoregressive coefficient in autoregressive models has recently been shown to be second order pivotal when the autoregressive coefficient is in the interior of the parameter space and so is very well approximated by the χ1 distribution. In this paper, the non-standard asymptotic distribution of the RLRT for the unit root boundary value is obtained and is found to be almost identical to that of the χ1 in the right tail. Together, the above two results imply that the χ1 distribution approximates the RLRT distribution very well even for near unit root series and transitions smoothly to the unit root distribution.

Modified Maximum Likelihood Estimation in First-Order Autoregressive Moving Average Models with some Non-Normal Residuals
When modeling time series data using autoregressive-moving average processes, it is a common practice to presume that the residuals are normally distributed. However, sometimes we encounter non-normal residuals and asymmetry of data marginal distribution. Despite widespread use of pure autoregressive processes for modeling non-normal time series, the autoregressive-moving average models have le...
متن کاملVector Autoregressive Model Selection: Gross Domestic Product and Europe Oil Prices Data Modelling
We consider the problem of model selection in vector autoregressive model with Normal innovation. Tests such as Vuong's and Cox's tests are provided for order and model selection, i.e. for selecting the order and a suitable subset of regressors, in vector autoregressive model. We propose a test as a modified log-likelihood ratio test for selecting subsets of regressors. The Europe oil prices, ...
متن کاملAn Improved Automatic EEG Signal Segmentation Method based on Generalized Likelihood Ratio
It is often needed to label electroencephalogram (EEG) signals by segments of similar characteristics that are particularly meaningful to clinicians and for assessment by neurophysiologists. Within each segment, the signals are considered statistically stationary, usually with similar characteristics such as amplitude and/or frequency. In order to detect the segments boundaries of a signal, we ...
متن کاملThe Chi-Square Approximation of the Restricted Likelihood Ratio Test for the Sum of Autoregressive Coefficients with Interval Estimation
The restricted likelihood (RL) of an autoregressive (AR) process of order one with intercept/trend possesses enormous advantages, such as yielding estimates with significantly reduced bias, powerful unit root tests, small curvature and a well-behaved likelihood ratio test (RLRT ) near the unit root. We consider the likelihood ratio test based on the Restricted Likelihood (RLRT ) for the sum of ...

In this paper we survey time series models allowing for conditional heteroscedas ticity and autoregression like AR GARCH type models These models reduce to a white noise model when some of the conditional heteroscedasticity parameters take their boundary value at zero and the autoregressive component is in fact not present We reproduce the asymptotic distribution of the pseudo log likelihood ra...
