Empirical likelihood confidence regions of the parameters in a partially linear single-index model

In this paper,a partially linear single-index model is investigated,and three empirical log-likelihood ratio statistics for the unknown parameters in the model are sug- gested.It is proved that the proposed statistics are asymptotically standard chi-square un- der some suitable conditions,and hence can be used to construct the confidence regions of the parameters.Our methods can also deal with the confidence region construction for the index in the pure single-index model.A simulation study indicates that,in terms of cov- erage probabilities and average areas of the confidence regions,the proposed methods perform better than the least-squares method.

CONFIDENCE REGIONS IN TERMS OF STATISTICAL CURVATURE FOR AR（q） NONLINEAR REGRESSION MODELS

This paper constructs a set of confidence regions of parameters in terms of statistical curvatures for AR(q) nonlinear regression models. The geometric frameworks are proposed for the model. Then several confidence regions for parameters and parameter subsets in terms of statistical curvatures are given based on the likelihood ratio statistics and score statistics. Several previous results,, such as [1] and [2] are extended to AR(q)nonlinear regression models.     

A constructive hypothesis test for the single-index models with two groups

Comparison of two-sample heteroscedastic single-index models, where both the scale and location functions are modeled as single-index models, is studied in this paper. We propose a test for checking the equality of single-index parameters when dimensions of covariates of the two samples are equal. Further, we propose two test statistics based on Kolmogorov–Smirnov and Cramér–von Mises type functionals. These statistics evaluate the difference of the empirical residual processes to test the equality of mean functions of two single-index models. Asymptotic distributions of estimators and test statistics are derived. The Kolmogorov–Smirnov and Cramér–von Mises test statistics can detect local alternatives that converge to the null hypothesis at a parametric convergence rate. To calculate the critical values of Kolmogorov–Smirnov and Cramér–von Mises test statistics, a bootstrap procedure is proposed. Simulation studies and an empirical study demonstrate the performance of the proposed procedures.     

Empirical Likelihood for Varying Coefficient EV Models under Longitudinal Data

In this paper, a varying coefficient errors-in-variables model under longitudinal data is investigated. An empirical likelihood based bias-correction approach is proposed. It is proved that the proposed statistics are asymptotically chi-squared under some mild conditions, and hence can be used to construct the confidence regions of the parameters of interest. Finite sample performance of the proposed method is illustrated in a simulation study. The proposed methods are applied to an AIDS clinical trial dataset.     

The use of order statistic numerical simulation algorithms

A modification of the standard algorithm for the simulation of order statistics for a uniform distribution is proposed that uses confidence intervals. It is found that one of the applications of the algorithms for the simulation of order statistics (namely, simulation of the beta distribution with integer parameters) gives more efficient methods for the simulation of order statistics than the algorithm based on confidence intervals. It is shown that the resulting algorithm can be used for the efficient simulation of random variables with polynomial density and of beta distributed random variables with large noninteger parameters.     

Asymptotic expansions of the distributions of some test statistics

Summary A modified Wald statistic for testing simple hypothesis against fixed as well as local alternatives is proposed. The asymptotic expansions of the distributions of the proposed statistic as well as the Wald and Rao statistics under both the null and alternative hypotheses are obtained. The powers of these statistics are compared and its is shown that for special structures of parameters some statistics have same power in the sence of order . The results obtained are applied for testing the hypothesis about the covariance matrix of the multivariate normal distribution and it is shown that none of the tests based on the above statistics is uniformly superior.
