Blockwise empirical entropy tests for time series regressions

Author

  • Francesco Bravo

Abstract

. This paper shows how the empirical entropy (also known as exponential likelihood or non‐parametric tilting) method can be used to test general parametric hypothesis in time series regressions. To capture the weak dependence of the observations, the paper uses blocking techniques which are also used in the bootstrap literature on time series. Monte Carlo evidence suggests that the proposed test statistics have better finite‐sample properties than conventional test statistics such as the Wald statistic.
