We consider the problem of testing for slope homogeneity in high-dimensional panel data models with cross-sectionally correlated errors. We consider a Swamy-type test for slope homogeneity by incorporating interactive fixed effects. We show that the proposed test statistic is asymptotically...

Penalized estimation is a useful technique for variable selection when the number of candidate variables is large. A crucial issue in penalized estimation is the selection of the regularization parameter because the performance of the estimator largely depends on an appropriate choice. However,...

This paper investigates the asymptotic properties of a penalized empirical likelihood estimator for moment restriction models when the number of parameters ( p n ) and/or the number of moment restrictions increases with the sample size. Our main result is that the SCAD-penalized empirical...

This paper introduces a spatial panel quantile model with unobserved heterogeneity. The proposed model is capable of capturing high-dimensional cross-sectional dependence and allows heterogeneous regression coefficients. For estimating model parameters, a new estimation procedure is proposed....
