Self-weighted least absolute deviation estimation for infinite variance autoregressive models
How to undertake statistical inference for infinite variance autoregressive models has been a long-standing open problem. To solve this problem, we propose a self-weighted least absolute deviation estimator and show that this estimator is asymptotically normal if the density of errors and its derivative are uniformly bounded. Furthermore, a Wald test statistic is developed for the linear restriction on the parameters, and it is shown to have non-trivial local power. Simulation experiments are carried out to assess the performance of the theory and method in finite samples and a real data example is given. The results are entirely different from other published results and should provide new insights for future research on heavy-tailed time series. Copyright 2005 Royal Statistical Society.
