1 LECTURE 11: GEERALIZED LEAST SQUARES (GLS) In this lecture, we will consider the model y = Xβ + ε retaining the assumption Ey = Xβ. However, we no longer have the assumption V(y) = V(ε) = σ 2 I. Instead we add the assumption V(y) = V where V is positive definite. Sometimes we take V = σ 2 Ω with tr Ω = As we know, $β = (X X) -1 X y. What is E $β? ote that V( $β ) = (X X) -1 X VX(X X) -1 in this case. Is $β BLUE? Does $β minimize e e?.m. Kiefer, Cornell University, Econ 620, Lecture 11 1
2 The basic idea behind GLS is to transform the observation matrix [y X] so that the variance in the transformed model is I (or σ2i). Since V is positive definite, V -1 is positive definite too. Therefore, there exists a nonsingular matrix P such that V -1 = P P. Transforming the model y = Xβ + ε by P yields Py = PXβ + Pε. ote that EPε = PEε = 0 and V(Pε) = PEεε P = PVP = P(P P) -1 P = I. (We could have done this with V = σ 2 Ω and imposed tr Ω = if useful.) That is, the transformed model Py = PXβ + Pε satisfies the conditions under which we developed our Least Squares estimators..m. Kiefer, Cornell University, Econ 620, Lecture 11 2
3 Thus, the LS estimator is BLUE in the transformed model. The LS estimator for β in the model Py = PXβ + Pε is referred to as the GLS estimator for β in the model y = Xβ + ε. Proposition: The GLS estimator for β is $β = (X V -1 X) -1 X V -1 G y. Proof: Apply LS to the transformed model. Thus, $β = (X P PX) -1 X P Py = (X V -1 X) -1 X V -1 G y Proposition: V( $β ) = (X V -1 X) -1 G Proof: ote that $β - β = (X V -1 X) -1 X V -1 G ε. Thus, V( $β ) = E (X V -1 X) -1 X V -1 εε V -1 X(X V -1 X) -1 G = (X V -1 X) -1 X V -1 VV -1 X(X V -1 X) -1 = (X V -1 X) -1.M. Kiefer, Cornell University, Econ 620, Lecture 11 3
4 Aitken's Theorem: The GLS estimator is BLUE. (This really follows from the Gauss-Markov Theorem, but let's give a direct proof.) Proof: Let b be an alternative linear unbiased estimator such that b = [(X V -1 X) -1 X V -1 + A]y. Unbiasedness implies that AX = 0. V(b) = [(X V -1 X) -1 X V -1 + A] V [(X V -1 X) -1 X V -1 + A] = (X V -1 X) -1 + AVA + (X V -1 X) -1 X A + AX(X V -1 X) -1 The last two terms are zero. (why?) The second term is positive semi-definite, so A = 0 is best. What does GLS minimize?.m. Kiefer, Cornell University, Econ 620, Lecture 11 4
5 Recall that (y - Xb) (y - Xb) is minimized by b = $β (i.e. (y - Xb) is minimized in length by b = $β ). Consider P(y - Xb). The length of this vector is (y - Xb) P P(y - Xb) = (y - Xb) V -1 (y - Xb). Thus, GLS minimizes P(y - Xb) in length. Let ~ e = (y X β $ G ). ote that satisfies X V -1 (y X β $ ) = X V -1 G ~ e = 0. (why?) Then (y - Xb) V -1 (y - Xb) = (y X $β ) V -1 G (y X β $ ) + (b - ) X V -1 G $β X(b - $β G G ). ote that X ~ e 0 in general..m. Kiefer, Cornell University, Econ 620, Lecture 11 5
6 Estimation of σ 2 : Let V(y) = σ 2 Ω where tr Ω =. Choose P so P P = Ω -1. Then the variance in the transformed model Py = PXβ + Pε is σ 2 I. Our standard formula gives s 2 = ~~ ee /( - K) which is the unbiased estimator for σ 2. ow we add the assumption of normality: y ~ (Xβ, σ 2 Ω). Consider the log likelihood: 2 2 l( βσ ) = c - ln σ - 1 ln 2 2 Ω - 1 σ ( y Xβ) Ω ( y Xβ) Proposition: The GLS estimator is the ML estimator for β. (why?).m. Kiefer, Cornell University, Econ 620, Lecture 11 6
7 2 Proposition: = ~ e ~ e / (as expected). Proposition: $β and ~ G e are independent. (How would you prove this?) Testing: σ ML Testing procedures are as in the ordinary model. Results we have developed under the standard set-up will be applied to the transformed model..m. Kiefer, Cornell University, Econ 620, Lecture 11 7
8 When does $β G = $β? 1. $β = holds trivially when σ 2 G βˆ I = V. 2. $β = (X X) -1 X y and β $ = (X V -1 X) -1 X V -1 G y $β G = $β (X X) -1 X = (X V -1 X) -1 X V -1 VX = X(X V -1 X) -1 X X = XR (What are the dimensions of these matrices?) Interpretation: In the case where K = 1, X is an eigenvector of V. In general, if the columns of X are each linear combinations of the same K eigenvectors of V, then $β G = $β. This is hard to check and would usually be a bad assumption..m. Kiefer, Cornell University, Econ 620, Lecture 11 8
9 Example: Equicorrelated case: V(y) = V = I + α11 where 1 is an -vector of ones. The LS estimator is the same as the GLS estimator if X has a column of ones Case of unknown Ω: ote that there is no hope of estimating Ω since there are ( + 1)/2 parameters and only observations. Thus, we usually make some parametric restriction as Ω = Ω(θ) with θ a fixed parameter. Then we can hope to estimate θ consistently using squares and cross products of LS residuals or we could use ML. ote that it doesn't make sense to try to consistently estimate Ω since it grows with sample size..m. Kiefer, Cornell University, Econ 620, Lecture 11 9
10 Thus, "consistency" refers to the estimate of θ. Definition: $Ω = Ω( $θ ) is a consistent estimator of Ω if and only if $θ is a consistent estimator of θ. Feasible GLS (FGLS) is the estimation method used when Ω is unknown. FGLS is the same as GLS except that it uses an estimated Ω, say $Ω = Ω( $θ ), instead of Ω. Proposition: $β = (X -1 X) -1 X -1 FG $Ω $Ω y ote that = β + (X -1 X) -1 X -1 $β FG $Ω $Ω ε. The following proposition follows easily from this decomposition of. $β FG.M. Kiefer, Cornell University, Econ 620, Lecture 11 10
11 Proposition: The sufficient conditions for be consistent are $β FG to plim X $Ω 1 X = Q where Q is positive definite and finite, and plim X $Ω 1 ε = 0. It takes a little more to get a distribution theory. From our discussion of $β G, it easily follows that ( β $ β) G 0, σ 2 X Ω X 1 1.M. Kiefer, Cornell University, Econ 620, Lecture 11 11
12 $β FG What about the distribution of when Ω is unknown? Proposition: Sufficient conditions for $β FG and $β G to have the same asymptotic distribution are that plim X ( $ 1 1 Ω Ω ) X = 0 plim Proof: ote that X ( Ω $ 1 Ω 1 ) ε = 0. and ( β $ β) G = X Ω X X Ω ε ( β $ β) FG = 1 X Ω$ X X Ω$ -1-1 ε..m. Kiefer, Cornell University, Econ 620, Lecture 11 12
13 Thus plim ( β $ β $ ) = 0 G FG if and plim X $Ω 1 X = plim Ω 1 X X plim X $Ω 1 ε X Ω = plim 1 ε. We are done. (Recall that plim(x y) = 0 the random variables x and y have the same asymptotic distribution.).m. Kiefer, Cornell University, Econ 620, Lecture 11 13
14 Summing up: Consistency of $θ implies consistency of the FGLS estimator. A little more is required for the FGLS estimator to have the same asymptotic distribution as the GLS estimator. These conditions are usually met..m. Kiefer, Cornell University, Econ 620, Lecture 11 14
15 Small-sample properties of FGLS estimators: Proposition: Suppose $θ is an even function of ε (i.e. (ε) = (-ε)). (This holds if $θ depends on squares and cross products of residuals.) Suppose ε has a symmetric distribution. Then E $β FG = β if the mean exists. Proof: The sampling error - β = (X $Ω ( $θ ) -1 X) -1 X $Ω ( $θ ) -1 ε $β FG has a symmetric distribution around zero since ε and -ε give the same value of $Ω. If the mean exists, it is zero. ote that this property is weak. It is easily obtained but it is not very useful..m. Kiefer, Cornell University, Econ 620, Lecture 11 15
16 General advice: -Do not use too many parameters in estimating the variance-covariance matrix or the increase in sampling variances will outweigh the decrease in asymptotic variance. -Always calculate LS as well as GLS estimators. What are the data telling you if these differ a lot?.m. Kiefer, Cornell University, Econ 620, Lecture 11 16
