Testing for martingale difference hypothesis in high dimension

Description

MartG_test() implements a new test proposed in Chang, Jiang and Shao (2021) for the following hypothesis testing problem:

H_0:\{{\bf x}_t\}_{t=1}^n\mathrm{\ is\ a\ MDS\ \ versus\ \ }H_1: \{{\bf x}_t\}_{t=1}^n\mathrm{\ is\ not\ a\ MDS,}

where MDS is the abbreviation of "martingale difference sequence".

Usage

MartG_test(
  X,
  lag.k = 2,
  B = 1000,
  type = c("Linear", "Quad"),
  alpha = 0.05,
  kernel.type = c("QS", "Par", "Bart")
)

Arguments

X	{\bf X} = \{{\bf x}_1, \dots , {\bf x}_n \}', an n\times p sample matrix, where n is the sample size and p is the dimension of {\bf x}_t.
lag.k	Time lag K, a positive integer, used to calculate the test statistic. Default is lag.k =2.
B	Bootstrap times for generating multivariate normal distributed random vectors in calculating the critical value. Default is B =1000.
type	String, a map is chosen by the R users, such as the default option is 'Linear' means linear identity map (\boldsymbol \phi({\bf x})={\bf x}). Also including another option 'Quad' (Both linear and quadratic terms \boldsymbol \phi({\bf x})=\{{\bf x}',({\bf x}^2)'\}'). Also the users can choose set the map themselves, use for example expression(X, X^2), quote(X, X^2), parse(X, X^2), substitute(X, X^2) or just map without function (such as cbind(X, X^2)) to set their own map. See Section 2.1 in Chang, Jiang and Shao (2021) for more information.
alpha	The prescribed significance level. Default is 0.05.
kernel.type	String, an option for choosing the symmetric kernel used in the estimation of long-run covariance matrix, for example, 'QS' (Quadratic spectral kernel), 'Par' (Parzen kernel) and 'Bart' (Bartlett kernel), see Andrews (1991) for more information. Default option is kernel.type = 'QS'.

Value

An object of class "hdtstest" is a list containing the following components:

.

statistic	The value of the test statistic.
p.value	Numerical value which represents the p-value of the test.
lag.k	The time lag used in function.
method	A character string indicating what method was performed.
type	A character string which map used on data matrix X.
kernel.type	A character string indicating what kenel method was performed.

Examples

n <- 200
p <- 10
X <- matrix(rnorm(n*p),n,p)
res <- MartG_test(X, type="Linear")
res <- MartG_test(X, type=cbind(X, X^2)) #the same as Linear type
res <- MartG_test(X, type=quote(cbind(X, X^2))) # expr using quote
res <- MartG_test(X, type=substitute(cbind(X, X^2))) # expr using substitute
res <- MartG_test(X, type=expression(cbind(X, X^2))) # expr using expression
res <- MartG_test(X, type=parse(text="cbind(X, X^2)")) # expr using parse
map_fun <- function(X) {X <- cbind(X,X^2); X}
res <- MartG_test(X, type=map_fun)
Pvalue <- res$p.value
rej <- res$reject
