Recently Hazelton and Turlach (2009) proposed a weighted kernel density estimator for the deconvolution problem. In the case of Gaussian kernels and measurement error, they argued that the weighted kernel density estimator is a competitive estimator over the classical deconvolution kernel estimator. In this paper we consider weighted kernel density estimators when sample observations are contaminated by double exponentially distributed errors. The performance of the weighted kernel density estimators is compared over the classical deconvolution kernel estimator and the kernel density estimator based on the support vector regression method by means of a simulation study. The weighted density estimator with the Gaussian kernel shows numerical instability in practical implementation of optimization function. However the weighted density estimates with the double exponential kernel has very similar patterns to the classical kernel density estimates in the simulations, but the shape is less satisfactory than the classical kernel density estimator with the Gaussian kernel.

The ordinary least squares estimator and the corresponding pivotal statistics have been widely used for the unit test. Recently several test criteria based on maximum likelihood estimators and weighted symmetric estimator have been proposed for testing the unit root hypothesis in the autoregressive processes. Pantula at el. (1994) showed that the weighted symmetric estimator has good power properties. In this article we use an adjusted estimator for mean in the model when we use weighted symmetric estimator. A simulation study shows that for the small samples, this new test criterion has better power properties than the weighted symmetric estimator.

In the multiple linear regression model a class of weighted least absolute error estimaters, which minimize the sum of weighted absolute residuals, is proposed. It is shown that the weighted least absolute error estimators with Wilcoxon scores are equivalent to the Koul's Wilcoxon type estimator. Therefore, the asymptotic efficiency of the proposed estimator with Wilcoxon scores relative to the least squares estimator is the same as the Pitman efficiency of the Wilcoxon test relative to the Student's t-test. To find the estimates the iterative weighted least squares method suggested by Schlossmacher is applicable.

In this study, we consider the simultaneous estimation of the parameters of the distribution of p independent Poisson random variables using the weighted loss function. The relation between the estimation under the weighted loss function and the case when more than one observation is taken from some population is studied. We derive an estimator which dominates Tsui and Press's estimator when certain conditions hold. We also derive an estimator which dominates the maximum likelihood estimator(MLE) under the various loss function. The risk performances of proposed estimators are compared to that of MLE by computer simulation.

The estimation of the response curve is the important problem in the quantal bioassay. When we estimate the response curve, we determine the design points in advance of the experiment. Then naturally we have a question of which design would be optimal. As a response curve estimator, locally weighted quasi-likelihood estimator has several more appealing features than the traditional nonparametric estimators. The optimal design density for the locally weighted quasi-likelihood estimator is derived and its ability both in theoretical and in empirical point of view are investigated.

In multiple linear regression model we have presupposed assumptions (independence normality variance homogeneity and so on) on error term. When case weights are given because of variance heterogeneity we can estimate efficiently regression parameter using weighted least squares estimator. Unfortunately this estimator is sen-sitive to outliers like ordinary least squares estimator. Thus in this paper we proposed some statistics for detection of outliers in weighted least squares regression.

본 논문에서는 패널회귀모형에서 회귀계수 추정량으로 일반최소제곱추정량과 가중최소 제곱추정량의 설계기반 성질을 고찰한다. 회귀계수의 최소제곱추정량을 선형화하여 일반최소제곱추정량의 근사편향, 근사분산, 그리고 근사평균제곱오차의 수식과, 가중최소제곱추정량의 근사분산 수식을 유도한 후, 모의실험을 통하여 두 추정량의 근사분산 및 근사평균 제곱오차의 크기를 수치적으로 비교한다. 모의실험에서는 한국복지패널 3개년 데이터를 모집단으로 간주하고, 가구소득 변수를 관심변수로 하며 가구와 가구주 관련 7개 변수를 설명변수로 하는 유한모집단 회귀계수를 고려한다. 두 추정량의 설계기반 성질을 비교하기 위하여 표본수를 50에서 1,000까지 50 간격으로 설정하여 일반최소제곱추정량의 근사편향, 근사분산 그리고 가중최소제곱추정량의 근사분산을 계산한다. 모의실험을 통하여 다음과 같은 경향을 확인하였다. 첫째, 표본의 크기가 커지면 일반최소제곱추정량의 평균제곱오차가 가중최소제곱추정량의 분산보다 커진다. 둘째, 일반최소제곱추정량의 평균제곱오차를 가중최소제곱추정량의 분산으로 나눈비(ratio)는 설명변수에 따라 크기가 다르게 나타나고, 일반최소제곱추정량의 편향이 클수록 큰 값을 보인다. 셋째, 분산만 비교하면 일반최소제곱추정량의 분산이 가중최소제곱추정량의 분산보다 대부분의 경우에 더 작게 나타난다.

Lindsay (1994) and Basu et al (1997) show that another density-based distance called the negative exponential disparity (NED) is an excellent competitor to the Hellinger distance (HD) in generating an asymptotically fully efficient and robust estimator. Bhattacharya and Basu (1996) consider estimation of the locations of several normal populations when an order relation between them is known to be true. They empirically show that the robust HD based weighted likelihood estimators compare favorably with the M-estimators based on Huber's $\psi$ function, the Gastworth estimator, and the trimmed mean estimator. In this paper we investigate the performance of the weighted likelihood estimator based on the NED as a robust alternative relative to that based on the HD. The NED based estimator is found to be quite competitive in the settings considered by Bhattacharya and Basu.

Efforts to obtain more power for unit root tests have continued. Pantula at el.(1994) compared empirical powers of several unit root test statistics and addressed that the weighted symmetric estimator(WSE) and the unconditional maximum likelihood estimator(UMLE) are the best among them. One can easily see that the powers of these two statistics are almost the same. In this paper we explain a connection between WSE and UMLE and suggest a unit root test statistic which may explain the connection between them.

Multivariate unit root tests for the VAR(p) model have been commonly used in time series analysis. Several unit root tests were developed and recently Shin(2004) suggested a cointegration test based on weighted symmetric estimator. In this paper, we suggest a multivariate unit root test statistic based on the weighted symmetric estimator. Using a small simulation study, we compare the powers of the new test statistic with the statistics suggested in Shin(2004) and Fuller(1996).
