Testing in generalized partially linear models: A robust approach

In this paper, we introduce a family of robust statistics which allow to decide between a parametric model and a semiparametric one. More precisely, under a generalized partially linear model, i.e., when the observations satisfy y i(x i,t i)F(i) with μ i = H((t i)+x i t) and H a known link function,...

Sumario:In this paper, we introduce a family of robust statistics which allow to decide between a parametric model and a semiparametric one. More precisely, under a generalized partially linear model, i.e., when the observations satisfy y i(x i,t i)F(i) with μ i = H((t i)+x i t) and H a known link function, we want to test H0:(t)=+t against H1:is a nonlinear smooth function. A general approach which includes robust estimators based on a robustified deviance or a robustified quasi-likelihood is considered. The asymptotic behavior of the test statistic under the null hypothesis is obtained. © 2012 Elsevier B.V.
