These tests are designed to be asymptotically robust to the order of integration of the series at both the zero and seasonal frequencies. Motivated by the approach of Hylleberg, Engle, Granger and Yoo, we base our approach on linear filters of the data that remove any potential unit roots at the frequencies not associated with the deterministic component(s) under test. Test statistics are constructed using the filtered data such that they have well defined limiting null distributions regardless of whether the data are either integrated or stationary at the frequency associated with the deterministic component(s) under test. In the same manner as Vogelsang, Bunzel and Vogelsang and Sayginsoy and Vogelsang, we scale these statistics by a function of an auxiliary seasonal unit root statistic. This allows us to construct tests that are asymptotically robust to the order of integration of the data at both the zero and seasonal frequencies. Monte Carlo evidence suggests that our proposed tests have good finite sample size and power properties. An empirical application to UK gross domestic product indicates the presence of seasonal mean shifts in the data.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":50555,"journal":{"name":"Econometrics Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2018-01-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1111/ectj.12111","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71982466","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A widely used estimator is the graphical least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (GLASSO), which amounts to a maximum likelihood estimation regularized using the matrix norm on the precision matrix Ω. The norm is a LASSO penalty that controls for sparsity, or the number of zeros in Ω. We propose a new estimator called structured GLASSO (SGLASSO) that uses the mixed norm. The use of the penalty controls for the structure of the sparsity in Ω. We show that when the network size is fixed, SGLASSO is asymptotically equivalent to an infeasible GLASSO problem which prioritizes the sparsity-recovery of high-degree nodes. Monte Carlo simulation shows that SGLASSO outperforms GLASSO in terms of estimating the overall precision matrix and in terms of estimating the structure of the graphical model. In an empirical illustration using a classic firms' investment data set, we obtain a network of firms' dependence that exhibits the core–periphery structure, with General Motors, General Electric and US Steel forming the core group of firms.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":50555,"journal":{"name":"Econometrics Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2017-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1111/ectj.12104","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71962765","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The new CLTs are used to develop a test of the restrictive ‘separability’ condition that is necessary for second-stage regressions of efficiency estimates on environmental variables. We show that if this condition is violated, not only are second-stage regressions difficult to interpret and perhaps meaningless, but also first-stage, unconditional efficiency estimates are misleading. As such, the test developed here is of fundamental importance to applied researchers using non-parametric methods for efficiency estimation. The test is shown to be consistent and its local power is examined. Our simulation results indicate that our tests perform well both in terms of size and power. We provide a real-world empirical example by re-examining the paper by Aly et al. (1990, <i>Review of Economics and Statistics 72</i>, 211–18) and rejecting the separability assumption implicitly assumed by Aly et al., calling into question results that appear in hundreds of papers that have been published in recent years.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":50555,"journal":{"name":"Econometrics Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2017-09-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1111/ectj.12103","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71976558","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
