In this paper, we study the estimation and inference of the threshold model with hybrid local stochastic unit root regressors. Our main contribution is to propose an estimator that generalizes the threshold model with various forms of nonstationary regressors and to obtain its limiting...

An area of very active research in econometrics over the last 30 years has been that of non- and semi-parametric methods. These methods have provided ways to complement more-traditional parametric approaches in terms of robust alternatives, as well as preliminary data analysis. The present...
