Simple Tests for Reduced Rank in Multivariate Regression
نویسنده
چکیده
The present work proposes tests for reduced rank in multivariate regression coefficient matrices, under rather general conditions. A heuristic approach is to first estimate the regressions via standard methods, then compare the coefficient matrix rows (or columns) to assess their redundancy. A formal version of this approach utilizes the distance between an unrestricted coefficient matrix estimate and an estimate restricted by reduced rank. Two distance minimization problems emerge, based on equivalent formulations of the null hypothesis. For each method we derive estimators and tests, and their asymptotic distributions. We examine test performance in simulation, and give some numerical examples.

Topics on Reduced Rank Methods for Multivariate Regression
Topics in Reduced Rank methods for Multivariate Regression by Ashin Mukherjee Advisors: Professor Ji Zhu and Professor Naisyin Wang Multivariate regression problems are a simple generalization of the univariate regression problem to the situation where we want to predict q(> 1) responses that depend on the same set of features or predictors. Problems of this type is encountered commonly in many...
متن کاملReduced rank ridge regression and its kernel extensions
In multivariate linear regression, it is often assumed that the response matrix is intrinsically of lower rank. This could be because of the correlation structure among the prediction variables or the coefficient matrix being lower rank. To accommodate both, we propose a reduced rank ridge regression for multivariate linear regression. Specifically, we combine the ridge penalty with the reduced...
متن کاملLikelihood Ratio Tests in Reduced Rank Regression with Applications to Econometric Structural Equations
Likelihood ratio criteria are developed for hypotheses concerning multivariate regression matrices when reduced rank is assumed or equivalently hypotheses concerning linear restrictions on regression matrices. In an econometric simultaneous equation model a single restriction may be called a ”structural equation.” A model of reduced rank in statistics is often termed a ”linear functional relati...

We propose identi cation robust inference methods for multivariate reduced rank (MRR) regressions. Such models involve nonlinear restrictions on the coe¢ cients of a multivariate linear regression (MLR), whose identi cation may raise serious non-regularities leading to the failure of standard asymptotics. To circumvent such problems, we propose con dence set estimates for parameters of interest...
متن کاملSparse Reduced-Rank Regression for Simultaneous Dimension Reduction and Variable Selection in Multivariate Regression
The reduced-rank regression is an effective method to predict multiple response variables from the same set of predictor variables, because it can reduce the number of model parameters as well as take advantage of interrelations between the response variables and therefore improve predictive accuracy. We propose to add a new feature to the reduced-rank regression that allows selection of releva...
