Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains new aspects of model diagnostics in time series analysis, including variable selection problems and higher-order asymptotics of tests. This is the first book to cover systematic approaches and widely applicable results for nonstandard models including infinite variance processes. The book begins by introducing a unified view of a portmanteau-type test based on a likelihood ratio test, useful to test general parametric hypotheses inherent in statistical models. The conditions for the limit distribution of portmanteau-type tests to be asymptotically pivotal are given under general settings, and very clear implications for the relationships between the parameter of interest and the nuisance parameter are elucidated in terms of Fisher-information matrices. A robust testing procedure against heavy-tailed time series models is also constructed in the context of variable selection problems. The setting is very reasonable in the context of financial data analysis and econometrics, and the result is applicable to causality tests of heavy-tailed time series models. In the last two sections, Bartlett-type adjustments for a class of test statistics are discussed when the parameter of interest is on the boundary of the parameter space. A nonlinear adjustment procedure is proposed for a broad range of test statistics including the likelihood ratio, Wald and score statistics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a thoroughly revised, in-depth analysis of the American presidency by a major scholar in the field. The main goal of the text is to explain how the president's ability to implement policy is circumscribed by several major factors: *the Madisonian separation of powers; *the decentralized power structure in Congress; *the number of cross-party coalitions needed to pass legislation; *a slow-moving federal bureaucracy; and *the powerful influence of special interest groups opposed to many presidential initiatives. Included in this second edition is coverage of the first two years of the Clinton presidency and a special chapter on the emergence of the presidential branch—the White House staff—and its displacement of the cabinet and the executive departments as the foremost decision-making agents in the federal government (a unique chapter not found in other texts). Since highly unstable relations between the president and congress have become the hallmark of our national government, especially in this era of divided government, a new chapter on the president and congress has been added to the text. The growing role of the vice president, an original chapter in the first edition, has been expanded and updated to include the Gore vice presidency. The chapter on proposed reforms of the presidency received wide approval in the first edition. In the second edition special attention is devoted to the proposal to abolish the Electoral College and replace it with direct election of the president. This edition focuses heavily on the activist presidential leadership of the modern presidency, but notes its perishable nature. High presidential approval ratings, as George Bush demonstrated, cannot be stockpiled or deposited in the bank, to be drawn upon later. Along the way the author makes several major points: 1. the excessive demands that the American public imposes on its presidents threaten to turn the nation's highest office into a series of one-term presidents; 2. the decline of political parties as vehicles for mobilizing presidential support has forced the nation's chief executive to go over the heads of congress and directly to the public to solicit support for his policies; and 3. the emerging dangers of electronic democracy and national referenda and the potential rise of a plebiscitary president all pose more imminent threats to our shared powers system than most presidential-watchers have been willing to concede.

Download or read book Microeconometrics written by A. Colin Cameron and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2005-05-09 with total page 1058 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides the most comprehensive treatment to date of microeconometrics, the analysis of individual-level data on the economic behavior of individuals or firms using regression methods for cross section and panel data. The book is oriented to the practitioner. A basic understanding of the linear regression model with matrix algebra is assumed. The text can be used for a microeconometrics course, typically a second-year economics PhD course; for data-oriented applied microeconometrics field courses; and as a reference work for graduate students and applied researchers who wish to fill in gaps in their toolkit. Distinguishing features of the book include emphasis on nonlinear models and robust inference, simulation-based estimation, and problems of complex survey data. The book makes frequent use of numerical examples based on generated data to illustrate the key models and methods. More substantially, it systematically integrates into the text empirical illustrations based on seven large and exceptionally rich data sets.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Attempts to cope with the challenge of optimal utilization of limited resources in accomplishing variegated tasks have resulted in an exciting field known as scheduling theory. The resources and tasks are commonly referred to as machines and jobs, respectively. In this thesis efficient heuristic algorithms are developed, which quickly provide near optimal solutions for various problems in scheduling theory that are practically intractable to solve to optimality. The worst-case performance of the heuristic algorithms is thoroughly analyzed. With respect to machine environments, the scheduling problems considered range from parallel machine shops, through open and flow shops, to common generalizations of the classical shop models. With respect to the job characteristics, these problems may involve preemptive or non-preemptive scheduling, with setup times included in or separated from processing times. With respect to the ways jobs are released and scheduled, both off-line and on-line problems are investigated."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Download or read book International Capital Mobility and Asset Demand written by W. J. Jansen and published by Purdue University Press. This book was released on 1995 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International financial transactions have become less regulated and less costly over the past two decades. This study, consisting of two parts, examines several issues related to this increase in international capital mobility. The first part is devoted to the estimation of the correlation of saving and investment, which should be zero under capital mobility, according to Feldstein and Horioka. Questions, addressed are: What are the implications of the intertemporal budget constraint? Should time series analysis or cross-section analysis be used? The second part of the study focuses on the mean-variance portfolio model, which is an important benchmark model in financial economics but is strongly rejected in empirical tests. Here questions include: Can capital controls explain why the mean-variance model performs so badly? What is the role of adjustment costs?
