Abstract:

In this paper, we consider the statistical inference for semiparametric varying coefficient partially linear model with covariates missing at random. The profile least-squares estimators for the unknown parametric and coefficient functions are obtained by inverse probability weighted least-squares method. The asymptotic normality of the proposed estimators are proved under some appropriate conditions. In addition, we constructed an empirical log-likelihood ratio statistic for the unknown parametric components, and it is shown that the proposed statistic has the asymptotic chi-square distribution, and hence it can be used to construct the confidence regions of the parameter. Simulation studies and a real data analysis are conducted to examine the finite sample performance of the proposed procedure.

Key words: Semiparametric varying coefficient partially linear model, Missing data, Inverse probability weighted, Asymptotic normality, Empirical likelihood
