一类基于非参数回归的条件异方差检验

现有基于参数模型构造的条件异方差检验往往存在模型设定偏误问题。为了避免模型误设对检验结果的影响,并且同时捕获多种条件异方差现象,本文基于非参数回归构造了不依赖于特定模型形式的条件异方差检验统计量。该统计量可视作条件方差和无条件方差之间差异的加权平均,在原假设成立时渐近服从标准正态分布。数值模拟结果一方面表明本文统计量具有良好的有限样本性质,另一方面也说明条件均值模型误设会导致错误地拒绝条件同方差的原假设,凸显了本文引入非参数方法构造条件异方差检验的必要性。实证分析采用本文统计量探讨了国际主要股指收益率的条件异方差现象,得到了与Engle (1982)不同的检验结果,可能意味着股指收益率呈现出非线性动态特征。     

含均值结构变点时间序列的贝叶斯单位根检验

针对ADF和PP检验对含有均值结构变点时间序列的“伪检验”问题,文章基于贝叶斯理论,先运用贝叶斯因子模型选择的方法检测时序结构变点位置,再在结构变点已知的情况下运用置信区间和贝叶斯因子两种方法检验序列是否存在单位根,并用Monte Carlo模拟方法进行仿真,验证该方法的有效性。研究发现：是否考虑均值结构变点对时间序列的单位根检验有着重要的影响,不考虑结构突变而进行常规的单位根检验会产生误判;贝叶斯方法能够有效检测含有均值结构变点时间序列的变点位置,并能提高单位根检验功效。

Semiparametric test for multiple change-points based on empirical likelihood

In the dynamic financial market, the change of financial asset prices is always described as a certain random events which result in abrupt changes. The random time when the event occurs is called a change point. As the event happens, in order to mitigate property damage the government should increase the macro-control ability. As a result, we need to find a valid statistical model for change point problem to solve it effectively. This paper proposes a semiparametric model for detecting the change points. According to the research of empirical studies and hypothesis testing we acquire the maximum likelihood estimators of change points. We use the loglikelihood ratio to test the multiple change points. We obtain some asymptotic results. The estimated change point is more efficient than the non parametric one through simulation experiments. Real data application illustrates the usage of the model.     

Local Fourier tests for structural change based on residuals

We propose a structural change test based on the recursive residuals with the local Fourier series estimators. The statistical properties of the proposed test are derived and the empirical properties are shown via simulation. We also consider other structural change tests based on CUSUM, MOSUM, moving estimates (ME), and empirical distribution functions with the recursive residuals and the ordinary residuals. Empirical powers are calculated in various structural change models for the comparison of those tests. These structural change tests are applied to South Korea's gross domestic product (GDP), South Korean Won to US Dollar currency exchange rates, and South Korea's Okun's law.     

Multiple hypothesis test for parameter constancy based on recursive residuals

This article presents a multiple hypothesis test procedure that combines two well known tests for structural change in the linear regression model, the CUSUM test and the recursive t test. The CUSUM test is run through the sequence of recursive residuals as usual; if the CUSUM plot does not violate the critical lines, one more step is taken to perform the t test for hypothesis of zero mean based on all recursive residuals. The asymptotic size of this multiple hypothesis test is derived; power simulation results suggest that it outperforms the traditional CUSUM test and complements other tests that are currently stressed in econometrics.

Detection and estimation of structural change in heavy-tailed sequence

In this paper, bootstrap detection and ratio estimation are proposed to analysis mean change in heavy-tailed distribution. First, the test statistic is constructed into a ratio form on the CUSUM process. Then, the asymptotic distribution of test statistic is obtained and the consistency of the test is proved. To solve the problem that the null distribution of the test statistic contains unknown tail index, we present a bootstrap approximation method to determine the critical values of the null distribution. We also discuss how to estimate change point based on ratio method. The consistency and rate of convergence for the change-point estimator are established. Finally, the excellent performance of our method is demonstrated through simulations using artificial and real data sets. Especially the simulation results of bootstrap test are better than those of another existing method.     

Change detection in the mean of a white Gaussian process by the backward standardized sum

A statistical method for detection of a change in the mean of a white Gaussian noise process is developed in this paper. The decision function of the method searches for the maximum of the backward standardized sum in a moving window to detect the change. Statistical properties of the decision function are derived to set the detection threshold. The derivation of the mean delay function and the optimal size of the moving window is also presented. The performance of the proposed method is compared, in terms of the mean delay for the detection, with that of the exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA). The mean delays of the cumulative sum control charts are also compared for benchmarking. The performance comparison is carried out by evaluating the average run length functions and by simulations. The results conclude that the mean detection delay of the proposed method is shorter than that of the standard EWMA for the same Type I error probability.     

Monitoring Structural Changes in Generalized Linear Models

In this article, we introduce two monitoring schemes to (sequentially) detect structural changes in generalized linear models and develop asymptotic theories for them. The first method is based on cumulative sums (CUSUM) of weighted residuals, in which the unknown in-control parameters have been replaced by its maximum likelihood (ML) estimate from the training sample, whereas the second scheme makes use of moving sums (MOSUM) of weighted residuals. We characterize the limit distribution of the test statistic and show that these tests are consistent. Moreover, we also obtain and tabulate the asymptotic critical values of the tests. Finally, we study the speed of detection under different conditions. The methods are illustrated and compared in several simulations.     

Ratio detection for mean change in α mixing observations

A ratio test based on the indicators of the data minus the sample median is proposed to detect the change in the mean of α-mixing stochastic sequences. The asymptotic distribution of the test is derived under the null hypothesis. The consistency of the proposed test is also obtained under the hypothesis that μ changes at some unknown time. We also propose a consistent estimator for the change point on the ratio test. Simulations demonstrate that the test and the estimator behaves well for heavy-tailed sequences. At last, an empirical application demonstrate the validity of the test and the estimator.     

Break point detection for functional covariance

Many neuroscience experiments record sequential trajectories where each trajectory consists of oscillations and fluctuations around zero. Such trajectories can be viewed as zero-mean functional data. When there are structural breaks in higher-order moments, it is not always easy to spot these by mere visual inspection. Motivated by this challenging problem in brain signal analysis, we propose a detection and testing procedure to find the change point in functional covariance. The detection procedure is based on the cumulative sum statistics (CUSUM). The fully functional testing procedure relies on a null distribution which depends on infinitely many unknown parameters, though in practice only a finite number of these parameters can be included for the hypothesis test of the existence of change point. This paper provides some theoretical insights on the influence of the number of parameters. Meanwhile, the asymptotic properties of the estimated change point are developed. The effectiveness of the proposed method is numerically validated in simulation studies and an application to investigate changes in rat brain signals following an experimentally-induced stroke.
