LEAST SQUARES ESTIMATION FOR NONLINEAR REGRESSION MODELS WITH HETEROSCEDASTICITY
建立了一个新的渐近理论框架,可简便应用于各类异方差非线性回归模型,并展示了其在非平稳异方差模型中的应用,同时给出了一个对鞅类有用的最大值不等式。
This paper develops an asymptotic theory of nonlinear least squares estimation by establishing a new framework that can be easily applied to various nonlinear regression models with heteroscedasticity. As an illustration, we explore an application of the framework to nonlinear regression models with nonstationarity and heteroscedasticity. In addition to these main results, this paper provides a maximum inequality for a class of martingales, which is of interest in its own right.
