Classical Inference with ML and GMM Estimates with Various Rates of Convergence

چکیده

This paper considers classical hypothesis testing in the maximum likelihood (ML) and generalized method of moments (GMM) frameworks, where components of unconstrained (and constrained) estimates of a model may have various rates of convergence and their limiting distributions are asymptotically normally distributed. Sufficient conditions are established under which the likelihood ratio, efficient score, C(α), and Wald-type statistics for the testing of general equality constraints can be asymptotically χ and are asymptotically equivalent under both null and a sequence of local alternatives. Similarly, results for the analogous difference test, gradient test, C(α)-type gradient test, and Wald test in the GMM estimation framework are established.

Classical and Bayesian Inference in Two Parameter Exponential Distribution with Randomly Censored Data

Abstract. This paper deals with the classical and Bayesian estimation for two parameter exponential distribution having scale and location parameters with randomly censored data. The censoring time is also assumed to follow a two parameter exponential distribution with different scale but same location parameter. The main stress is on the location parameter in this paper. This parameter has not...

Efficient Minimum Distance Estimation with Multiple Rates of Convergence

This paper extends the asymptotic theory of GMM inference to allow sample counterparts of the estimating equations to converge at (multiple) rates, different from the usual square-root of the sample size. In this setting, we provide consistent estimation of the structural parameters. In addition, we define a convenient rotation in the parameter space (or reparametrization) which permits to dise...

A new model of (I+S)-type preconditioner for system of linear equations

In this paper, we design a new model of preconditioner for systems of linear equations. The convergence properties of the proposed methods have been analyzed and compared with the classical methods. Numerical experiments of convection-diffusion equations show a good im- provement on the convergence, and show that the convergence rates of proposed methods are superior to the other modified itera...

Richardson and Chebyshev Iterative Methods by Using G-frames

In this paper, we design some iterative schemes for solving operator equation $ Lu=f $, where $ L:Hrightarrow H $ is a bounded, invertible and self-adjoint operator on a separable Hilbert space $ H $. In this concern,  Richardson and Chebyshev iterative methods are two outstanding as well as long-standing ones. They can be implemented in different ways via different concepts.In this paper...
