Empirical likelihood based inference for semiparametric varying coefficient partially linear models with error-prone linear covariates

This paper considers statistical inference for semiparametric varying coefficient partially linear models with error-prone linear covariates. An empirical likelihood based statistic for parametric component is developed to construct confidence regions. The resulting statistic is shown to be asymptotically chi-square distributed. By the empirical likelihood ratio function, the maximum empirical likelihood estimator of the parameter is defined and the asymptotic normality is shown. A simulation experiment is conducted to compare the empirical likelihood, normal based and the naive empirical likelihood methods in terms of coverage accuracies of confidence regions.     

Kernel Smoothing Estimation for Varying Coefficient EV Models with Longitudinal Data

Varying coefficient EV models with longitudinal data are considered. The local bias-corrected kernel estimators for the unknown coefficient functions are proposed. It is shown that the proposed estimators are asymptotically normal under some suitable conditions, and hence it can be used to construct the pointwise confidence regions of the coefficient functions. The finite-sample properties of the proposed procedures are studied through a simulation study.     

Model-based likelihood ratio confidence intervals for survival functions

We introduce an adjusted likelihood ratio procedure for computing pointwise confidence intervals for survival functions from censored data. The test statistic, scaled by a ratio of two variance quantities, is shown to converge to a chi-squared distribution with one degree of freedom. The confidence intervals are seen to be a neighborhood of a semiparametric survival function estimator and are shown to have correct empirical coverage. Numerical studies also indicate that the proposed intervals have smaller estimated mean lengths in comparison to the ones that are produced as a neighborhood of the Kaplan-Meier estimator. We illustrate our method using a lung cancer data set.

Estimation for nearly unit root processes with GARCH errors

In this paper the limiting distribution of the least square estimate for the autoregressive coefficient of a nearly unit root model with GARCH errors is derived. Since the limiting distribution depends on the unknown variance of the errors, an empirical likelihood ratio statistic is proposed from which confidence intervals can be constructed for the nearly unit root model without knowing the variance. To gain an intuitive sense for the empirical likelihood ratio, a small simulation for the asymptotic distribution is given.     

Empirical likelihood for median regression model with designed censoring variables

We propose a new and simple estimating equation for the parameters in median regression models with designed censoring variables, and then apply the empirical log likelihood ratio statistic to construct confidence region for the parameters. The empirical log likelihood ratio statistic is shown to have a standard chi-square distribution, which makes this method easy to implement. At the same time, another empirical log likelihood ratio statistic is proposed based on an existing estimating equation and the limiting distribution of the empirical likelihood ratio statistic is shown to be a sum of weighted chi-square distributions. We compare the performance of the empirical likelihood confidence region based on the new estimating equation, with that based on the existing estimating equation and a normal approximation method by simulation studies.     

Empirical likelihood for AR-ARCH models based on LAD estimation

By employing the empirical likelihood method,confidence regions for the stationary AR(p)-ARCH(q) models are constructed.A self-weighted LAD estimator is proposed under weak moment conditions.An empirical log-likelihood ratio statistic is derived and its asymptotic distribution is obtained.Simulation studies show that the performance of empirical likelihood method is better than that of normal approximation of the LAD estimator in terms of the coverage accuracy,especially for relative small size of observation.
