Abstract

The difference between the regression functions of two stationary conditional heteroskedastic autoregressive time series is tested. The functions can be equal, or shifted, under the null hypothesis. Local linear estimation of the regression function results in observable residuals. Bootstrap residuals lead to a marked empirical process as test statistic and a Kolmogorov-Smirnov version is applied. The simulation study for linear, exponential or trigonometric regression functions with homoskedastic or heteroskedastic errors finds the rejection probability under the null hypothesis to be near the level. Comparing series with different combinations of linear, exponential and trigonometric functions, the rejection probability under the alternative yields mixed results.
