Comparison of Nonparametric Components in Two Partially Linear Models

In this article, we are concerned with whether the nonparametric functions are parallel from two partial linear models, and propose a test statistic to check the difference of the two functions. The unknown constant α is estimated by using moment method under null models. Nonparametric functions under both null and full models are estimated by using local linear method. The asymptotic properties of parametric and nonparametric components are derived. The test statistic under the null hypothesis is calculated and shown to be asymptotically normal.     

Restricted Estimation in Partially Linear Errors-in-Variables Models

As a compromise between parametric regression and nonparametric regression, partially linear models are frequently used in statistical modelling. This article considers statistical inference for this semiparametric model when the linear covariate is measured with additive error and some additional linear restrictions on the parametric component are assumed to hold. We propose a restricted corrected profile least-squares estimator for the parametric component, and study the asymptotic normality of the estimator. To test hypothesis on the parametric component, we construct a Wald test statistic and obtain its limiting distribution. Some simulation studies are conducted to illustrate our approaches.     

Statistical Inference on the Parametric Component in Partially Linear Spatial Autoregressive Models

A statistical test procedure is proposed to check whether the parameters in the parametric component of the partially linear spatial autoregressive models satisfy certain linear constraint conditions, in which a residual-based bootstrap procedure is suggested to derive the p-value of the test. Some simulations are conducted to assess the performance of the test and the results show that the bootstrap approximation to the null distribution of the test statistic is valid and the test is of satisfactory power. Furthermore, a real-world example is given to demonstrate the application of the proposed test.     

Covariate-Adjusted Partially Linear Regression Models

Motivated by covariate-adjusted regression (CAR) proposed by Sentürk and Müller (2005 Sentürk , D. , Müller , H. G. ( 2005 ). Covariate-adjusted regression . Biometrika 92 : 75 – 89 .[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]) and an application problem, in this article we introduce and investigate a covariate-adjusted partially linear regression model (CAPLM), in which both response and predictor vector can only be observed after being distorted by some multiplicative factors, and an additional variable such as age or period is taken into account. Although our model seems to be a special case of covariate-adjusted varying coefficient model (CAVCM) given by Sentürk (2006 Sentürk , D. ( 2006 ). Covariate-adjusted varying coefficient models . Biostatistics 7 : 235 – 251 .[Crossref], [PubMed], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]), the data types of CAPLM and CAVCM are basically different and then the methods for inferring the two models are different. In this article, the estimate method motivated by Cui et al. (2008 Cui , X. , Guo , W. S. , Lin , L. , Zhu , L. X. ( 2008 ). Covariate-adjusted nonlinear regression . Ann. Statist. 37 : 1839 – 1870 . [Google Scholar]) is employed to infer the new model. Furthermore, under some mild conditions, the asymptotic normality of estimator for the parametric component is obtained. Combined with the consistent estimate of asymptotic covariance, we obtain confidence intervals for the regression coefficients. Also, some simulations and a real data analysis are made to illustrate the new model and methods.     

Efficient Estimation in Heteroscedastic Partially Linear Varying Coefficient Models

This article considers statistical inference for the heteroscedastic partially linear varying coefficient models. We construct an efficient estimator for the parametric component by applying the weighted profile least-squares approach, and show that it is semiparametrically efficient in the sense that the inverse of the asymptotic variance of the estimator reaches the semiparametric efficiency bound. Simulation studies are conducted to illustrate the performance of the proposed method.     

Testing Serial Correlation in Partially Linear Additive Errors-in-variables Models

This article considers testing serial correlation in partially linear additive errors-in-variables model. Based on the empirical likelihood based approach, a test statistic was proposed, and it was shown to follow asymptotically a chi-square distribution under the null hypothesis of no serial correlation. Finally, some simulation studies are conducted to illustrate the performance of the proposed method.     

Testing Serial Correlation in Partially Linear Single-Index Errors-in-Variables Models

In this article, we propose two test statistics for testing the underlying serial correlation in a partially linear single-index model Y = η(Z ^τα) + X ^τβ + ? when X is measured with additive error. The proposed test statistics are shown to have asymptotic normal or chi-squared distributions under the null hypothesis of no serial correlation. Monte Carlo experiments are also conducted to illustrate the finite sample performance of the proposed test statistics. The simulation results confirm that these statistics perform satisfactorily in both estimated sizes and powers.     

Outlier Resistant Estimation in Difference-Based Semiparametric Partially Linear Models

Partially linear models are extensions of linear models that include a nonparametric function of some covariate allowing an adequate and more flexible handling of explanatory variables than in linear models. The difference-based estimation in partially linear models is an approach designed to estimate parametric component by using the ordinary least squares estimator after removing the nonparametric component from the model by differencing. However, it is known that least squares estimates do not provide useful information for the majority of data when the error distribution is not normal, particularly when the errors are heavy-tailed and when outliers are present in the dataset. This paper aims to find an outlier-resistant fit that represents the information in the majority of the data by robustly estimating the parametric and the nonparametric components of the partially linear model. Simulations and a real data example are used to illustrate the feasibility of the proposed methodology and to compare it with the classical difference-based estimator when outliers exist.     

Statistical Inference in Partially Linear Varying-Coefficient Models with Missing Responses at Random

This article considers statistical inference for partially linear varying-coefficient models when the responses are missing at random. We propose a profile least-squares estimator for the parametric component with complete-case data and show that the resulting estimator is asymptotically normal. To avoid to estimate the asymptotic covariance in establishing confidence region of the parametric component with the normal-approximation method, we define an empirical likelihood based statistic and show that its limiting distribution is chi-squared distribution. Then, the confidence regions of the parametric component with asymptotically correct coverage probabilities can be constructed by the result. To check the validity of the linear constraints on the parametric component, we construct a modified generalized likelihood ratio test statistic and demonstrate that it follows asymptotically chi-squared distribution under the null hypothesis. Then, we extend the generalized likelihood ratio technique to the context of missing data. Finally, some simulations are conducted to illustrate the proposed methods.
