1 9. AUTOCORRELATION [1] Definition of Autocorrelation (AUTO) 1) Model: y t = x t β + ε t. We say that AUTO exists if cov(ε t,ε s ) 0, t s. ) Assumptions: All of SIC except SIC.3 (the random sample assumption). Or, all of WIC except WIC. [E(ε t ε 1,...,ε t-1,x 1,...,x t ) = 0]. Replace WIC. by E(ε t x 1,...,x T ) = 0 (strictly exogenous regressors). Comments: For OLS, the assumption of weakly exogenous regressors is enough. However, for GLS, we need the assumption of strictly exogenous regressors (that is, E( ε t xt, xt 1,,..., x1 ) = 0 for all t). AUTO-1

2 3) Example: AR(1): ε t = ρε t-1 + v t, v t iid N(0,σ v ). cov(ε t,ε t-1 ) = E(ε t ε t-1 ) = E[(ρε t-1 +v t )ε t-1 ] = ρe(ε t-1 ) 0. MA(1): ε t = v t + ψv t-1, v t iid N(0,σ v ). cov(ε t,ε t-1 ) = E(ε t ε t-1 ) = E[(v t +ψv t-1 )(v t-1 +ψv t- )] = ψe(v t-1 ) = ψσ v E1 ε t = ε t-1 + v t, σ v = 1. AUTO-

Empirical Example: Expectations-Augmented Phillips curve: Data: (Table F5.1 from Greene) From 1950I to 000II. For data descriptions, see p INFL: Annualized inflation rate (%). UNEMP: Unemployment rate (%). Expectation-Augmented Phillips curve: INFL INFL UNEMP t t1 = β1+ β t + εt, where β 1 = -β u * and u * is the natural unemployment rate. AUTO-11

13 [] Stationarity Assumption on ε t (1) Stationarity and Ergodicity Let {s t } be a process of interest. Notation: E(s t ) μ t ; var(s t ) γ 0t ; cov(s t,s t-j ) γ jt [Autocovariance] Definition of Covariance (weak) Stationarity: {s t } is called covariance-stationary (CS) iff μ t = μ (finite) for all t and γ jt = γ j (finite) for all t. [e.g., cov(s 5,s 3 ) = cov(s 4,s ) = γ ] Rough Definition of Ergodicity: γ jt 0 as j. Ergodicity is needed for CLT and LLN. () Stationarity Assumption on ε t in y t = x t β + ε t : E(ε t ) = 0, for all t. var(ε t ) = σ ε, for all t. cov(ε t,ε t-j ) = γ tj = γ j, for all t. γ j 0 as j. AUTO-13

14 [3] Properties of OLS (1) Autocorrelation: ρ j = γ j /γ 0 = γ j /var(ε t ). () Autocorrelation Matrix under the stationarity assumption: R 1 ρ ρ ρ... ρ 1 3 ρ 1 ρ ρ ρ ρ 1 ρ... ρ T 1 T 1 1 T 3 = ρ3 ρ ρ ρ T 4 : : : : : ρt1 ρt ρt3 ρt ρ. Let σ = var(ε t ) γ 0. Cov(ε) = σ Ω = σ R. Theorem: The OLS estimator ˆ β is unbiased (and consistent). But it is inefficient. Theorem: Cov ˆ = X X X ΩX X X 1 ( β) ( ) σ ( ) 1. AUTO-14

15 Implications: The t and F-tests based on s (X X) -1 are all irrelevant. Need to estimate Δ = X (σ Ω)X. If ˆΔ is available, a consistent estimate of 1ˆ 1 ( XX ) Δ ( XX ). Cov( ˆ β ) is Using this estimate, we can compute t and Wald statistics. (3) Nonparametric Estimation of X (σ Ω)X. Definitions: Let e t = OLS residuals; and g t = e t x t. Define: S 0 = 1 Σ tgg t t ; T 1 T t= j+ t t j S j = Σ 1gg ; T q i ˆΔ = T S0 +Σ i= 1 k ( Sj + Sj ) q + 1, where q is called bandwidth and k( ) is a kernel function. Can also control for heteroskedasticity. AUTO-15

16 Choice of q? If we believe that ρ j = 0 for j > τ [it happens if ε t follows MA(τ)], choose q = τ or more. If don't know? Choose q such that q and q/t 0, as T. Newey-West Method (1987, ECON) Use Bartlett's kernel, k(z) = 1 - z. Choose q = T 1/5 or q = T /9 (same for other methods) so that q/t 1/4 0. Gallant Method (1987, Nonlinear Statistic Models) Use Pazen kernel, k(z) = 1-6z + 6z 3 for 0 z 1/; = (1-z) 3, 1/ z 1 and = 0, otherwise. Andrews (1991, ECON) Quadratic kernel: 3 sin(6 π z /5) kz ( ) = cos(6 π z/5) (6 πz/ 5) 6 πz/5. 1 ˆ T T i Δ= S0 +Σ i= 1k ( Si + Si ) T p q+ 1. AUTO-16

17 [4] Detection of First-Order AUTO [Testing H o : ρ 1 = 0 against H a : ρ 1 0 assuming ρ =... = 0] (1) Notation: 1 T Σ t = j + t t j Sample Autocovariance: r j = 1ee T j. Sample Autocorrelation: a j = r j r (-1 a j 1). 0 Note: Under the CS and Ergodicity assumptions, r j p γ j as T ; a j p ρ j as T. () Durbin-Watson Test (Assuming regressors are strictly exogenous) D-W test statistic: DW = Intuition: Σ ( e e ) T t= t t1 T Σt= 1et. DW = (1-a 1 ) - e + e Σ 1 T T t= 1et (1-a 1 ). If H o is correct, DW. For formal test with DW, see book. AUTO-17

18 (3) LM-type Test (Regressors need not be strictly exogenous) STEP 1: Regress e t on x t and e t-1, and get R. STEP : t-test for Ho: the coefficient on e t-1 = 0. Or T R p χ (1). (4) Note on these tests. Suppose ρ j 0, j =, 3,.... Then, these tests may fail to detect autocorrelation. Accepting Ho: ρ 1 = 0 does not mean that ρ j = 0, j =, 3,.... AUTO-18

29 3) Iterative FGLS of β. STEP 1: Get Two-Step FGLS. STEP : Using T-S FGLS, compute residuals. STEP 3: Using these residuals, estimate ρ again. STEP 4: Using this estimate ρ, compute FGLS. STEP 5: Keep doing this until the estimates of β do not change. Comments: Asymptotically identical to MLE of β and two-step GLS if regressors are strictly exogenous. Iterative FGLS and GLS (or MLE) can have different distributions if regressors are only weakly exogenous. AUTO-9

30 (5) Nonlinear Least Square Approach (Estimate β and ρ jointly) Durbin Equation: y t = ρy t-1 + x t β + x t-1, (-ρβ) + v t. (y t = x t β + ε t ) - (ρy t-1 = x t-1, (ρβ) + ρε t-1 ) y t = ρy t-1 + x t β + x t-1, (-ρβ) + v t. [Durbin Equation] Regress y t on y t-1, x t and x t-1,. The estimated coefficient on y t-1 is a consistent estimate of ρ. Estimate this equation by NLLS Both estimates of β and ρ are asymptotically identical to MLE if the v t are normal. Okay with weakly exogenous x t. (6) MLE (Estimate β, ρ and σ v jointly): See Greene. y ~ N(Xβ, σ Ω): f(y) = ( π) 1 1 σ Ω σ T / y Xβ y Xβ, 1 T / exp ( ) Ω ( ) where σ σ v =. 1 ρ AUTO-30
