t_j = sqrt(n) mbar_j / sigma_j; xi_j = t_j / kappa_n with kappa_n = sqrt(log n); moment j is retained when xi_j > -1, and S = sum over retained of [max(t_j, 0)]^2.

Usage

Gmsbound(mbar, sigma, n, kappa = NULL)

Arguments

mbar

Sample moment means, positive meaning violation.

sigma

Moment standard deviations, strictly positive.

n

Sample size.

kappa

Tuning sequence; NULL uses sqrt(log n).

Value

List with S, t, xi, retained, nretained, kappa, n, J.
