报告摘要:To sufficiently exploit the model structure under the null hypothesis such that the conditions on the whole model can be mild, this paper investigates score function-based tests to check the significance of an ultrahigh-dimensional sub-vector of the model coefficients when the nuisance parameter vector is also ultrahigh-dimensional in linear models. We first reanalyze and extend a recently proposed score function-based test to derive, under weaker conditions, its limiting distributions under the null and local alternative hypotheses. As it may fail to work when the correlation between testing covariates and nuisance covariates is high, we propose an orthogonalized score function-based test with two merits: debiasing to make the non-degenerate error term degenerate and reducing the asymptotic variance to enhance the power performance. Simulations evaluate the finite-sample performances of the proposed tests, and a real data analysis illustrates its application.
