Robust inference on average economic growth
We discuss a method to estimate the confidence bounds for average economic growth, which is robust to misspecification of the unit root property of a given time series. We derive asymptotic theory for the consequences of such misspecification. Our empirical method amounts to an implementation of the bootstrapping procedure advocated in Romano and Wolf (2001). Simulation evidence supports the th...
متن کاملRobust Data-Driven Inference in the Regression-Discontinuity Design
This article introduces three Stata commands to conduct “robust” data-driven statistical inference in the regression-discontinuity (RD) design. First, we present the command rdrobust that implements the robust bias-corrected confidence intervals for sharp RD treatment effects proposed in Calonico, Cattaneo, and Titiunik (2012). This command also implements other conventional nonparametric RD tr...
متن کاملA Weighted k-Nearest Neighbor Density Estimate for Geometric Inference
Abstract Motivated by a broad range of potential applications in topological and geometric inference, we introduce a weighted version of the knearest neighbor density estimate. Various pointwise consistency results of this estimate are established. We present a general central limit theorem under the lightest possible conditions. In addition, a strong approximation result is obtained and the ch...
متن کاملData-driven robust optimization
The last decade witnessed an explosion in the availability of data for operations research applications. Motivated by this growing availability, we propose a novel schema for utilizing data to design uncertainty sets for robust optimization using statistical hypothesis tests. The approach is flexible and widely applicable, and robust optimization problems built from our new sets are computation...
متن کاملData-dependent weighted average filtering for image sequence enhancement
In this study, we consider a filtering method for image sequence degraded by additive Gaussian noise. In general, for the image sequence filtering, motion compensation (MC) method is required in order to obtain good filtering performance both in the still and moving regions of an image sequence. Nevertheless, a heavy computation load is imposed on MC method and MC tends to get mistaken motion v...
