Abstract

Due to the nonnegativity of variance, most of nonparametric estimations of discontinuous variance function have used the Nadaraya-Watson estimation with residuals. By the modification of Chen et al. (2009) and Yu and Jones (2004), Huh (2014, 2016a) proposed the estimators of the log-variance function instead of the variance function using the local linear estimator which has no boundary effect. Huh (2016b) estimated the variance function using the adjusted squared residuals by the estimated jump size in the discontinuous variance function. In this paper, we propose an estimator of the discontinuous log-variance function using the local linear estimator with the adjusted log-squared residuals by the estimated jump size of log-variance function like Huh (2016b). The numerical work demonstrates the performance of the proposed method with simulated and real examples.

분산함수가 불연속점을 가지는 경우, 대부분의 비모수적 함수 추정 연구에서 분산함수가 음수 값을 갖지 않기에 잔차제곱을 이용한 Nadaraya-Watson 추정량인 국소상수항추정량을 이용하였다. 한편, Huh (2014, 2016a)는 Chen 등 (2009)과 Yu와 Jones (2004)의 연구를 바탕으로 불연속 분산함수를 로그 변환한 로그분산함수를 추정 대상으로 삼아 잔차제곱이나 로그잔차제곱으로 경계점 문제를 가지지 않는 국소선형추정량을 이용하여 비모수적으로 추정하였다. Huh (2016b)는 불연속점에서 점프크기추정량을 활용하여 잔차제곱을 분산함수가 연속인 회귀모형에서 얻어진 잔차제곱인 것처럼 수정한 후 이들을 이용하여 불연속 분산함수의 추정을 연구하였다. 본 연구에서는 불연속 로그분산함수의 점프크기추정량을 이용하여 로그잔차제곱을 수정하고 불연속 로그분산함수를 국소선형추정량을 이용하여 추정하고자 한다. 제안된 추정량의 우수성을 모의실험을 통하여 Chen 등 (2009)의 로그분산함수 추정량을 이용한 Huh (2014)의 불연속 로그분산함수 추정량과 비교하고 실제자료에 적용하고자 한다.
