Abstract

In the case that the regression function has a discontinuity point in generalized linear model, Huh (2009) estimated the location and jump size using the log-likelihood weighted the one-sided kernel function. In this paper, we consider estimation of the unknown number of the discontinuity points in the regression function. The proposed algorithm is based on testing of the existence of a discontinuity point coming from the asymptotic distribution of the estimated jump size described in Huh (2009). The finite sample performance is illustrated by simulated example.

일반화선형모형에서 회귀함수가 하나의 불연속점을 가질 때, Huh (2009)는 하나의 모수를 가지는 지수족의 가능도함수를 한쪽방향커널을 이용하여 그 불연속점의 위치와 점프크기를 추정하였다. 이 논문에서는 미지의 불연속점 수 q개를 가지는 회귀함수인 경우에, Huh (2009)가 제안한 점프크기 추정량의 점근분포를 이용한 가설검정법을 소개하고, 그 가설검정법을 이용한 불연속점 수를 추정하는 알고리듬을 제안하고, 모의실험을 통하여 추정의 정도를 알아보고자 한다.
