An adaptive L2-type test for high-dimensional white noise
Abstract
We propose a new L2-type test for white noise which allows the dimension p of the time series to either (i) be a fixed constant, or (ii) diverge with the sample size n. The proposed test statistic exhibits an interesting phase transition, following two different regimes of behavior: p is fixed, and p→∞. Because identification of the operable regime is difficult, if not impossible in practice, we devise a novel adaptive bootstrap method to construct unified testing procedure across different phases. Numerical experiments confirm the good finite sample performance of the proposed adaptive L2-type test in comparison to the existing methods in the literature. The proposed testing procedure has been implemented in R package HDTSA.
