Modeling collective rationality: a nonparametric test on experimental data

Buyneel, Sabrina; Cherchye, Laurens; Rock, Bram De - Centrum voor Economische Studiën, Faculteit Economie … - 2006

We provide a .first nonparametric (revealed preference) test of the collective consumption model on the basis of experimental data. By using nonparametric testing tools and experimental data, we avoid the usual problems associated with parametric tests (e.g. non-verifiable parametric structure)...

Nonparametric Multiple Change Point Analysis of the Global Financial Crisis

Allen, David E; McAleer, Michael; Powell, Robert; … - School of Business, Edith Cowan University - 2013

This paper presents an application of a recently developed approach by Matteson and James (2012) for the analysis of change points in a data set, namely major financial market indices converted to financial return series. The general problem concerns the inference of a change in the distribution...

A multivariate control quantile test using data depth

Liu, Zhenyu; Modarres, Reza; Yang, Mengta - In: Computational Statistics & Data Analysis 57 (2013) 1, pp. 262-270

The objective of this article is to present a depth based multivariate control quantile test using statistically equivalent blocks (DSEBS). Given a random sample {x1,…,xm} of Rd-valued random vectors (d≥1) with a distribution function (DF) F, statistically equivalent blocks (SEBS), a...

Carbon dioxide emissions and governance: A nonparametric analysis for the G-20

Halkos, George E.; Tzeremes, Nickolaos G. - In: Energy Economics 40 (2013) C, pp. 110-118

This paper applies nonparametric estimators to examine the carbon dioxide emissions–governance relationship. By using data for the twenty largest economies (Group of twenty, G-20) the dynamics of the considered relationship are analyzed for the time period 1996–2010. Six governance measures...
