Abstract:
|
The traditional testing procedure for the null hypothesis about a multi-dimensional parameter in a stationary time series requires a consistent estimator of the long run covariance matrix. The commonly used estimator needs to choose a bandwidth parameter and is difficult to implement in practice. The self-normalization (SN) method avoids the bandwidth choice, is asymptotically distribution-free under the null but the size distortion is serious when the dimension is moderate and the temporal dependence is strong. In this talk, I will present a sample splitting based approach to testing and show the favorable size performance through simulations.
