Abstract It is widely known that the likelihood function for the switching-regression model is unbounded if the error variances are unconstrained. This paper shows that a constrained maximum-likelihood formulation makes the likelihood function bounded. Relatively mild constraints are imposed on the parameters, and if the true parameters satisfy the constraints, there is a global maximizer of the likelihood function on the constrained parameter space which is consistent, asymptotically normal, and efficient. A well-known EM algorithm is modified in order to compute constrained maximizers of the likelihood function.
AbstractList A research study shows that a constrained maximum-likelihood formulation makes the likelihood function for the switching-regression model bounded. Relatively mild constraints are imposed on the parameters.
A switching-regression model is characterized by switches between 2 regression equations where the timing of the switches is unknown. A well-known difficulty in using maximum likelihood to estimate regressions subject to discrete random switches is that the likelihood function is unbounded if the error variances in the underlying regressions are unconstrained. It is shown that a constrained maximum-likelihood formulation makes the likelihood function bounded. Relatively mild constraints are imposed on the parameters, and if the true parameters satisfy the constraints, there is a global maximizer of the likelihood function on the constrained parameter space that is consistent, asymptotically normal, and efficient. A well-known expectation maximization algorithm is modified in order to compute constrained maximizers of the likelihood function.

Snippet It is widely known that the likelihood function for the switching-regression model is unbounded if the error variances are unconstrained. This paper shows that...
A research study shows that a constrained maximum-likelihood formulation makes the likelihood function for the switching-regression model bounded. Relatively...
A switching-regression model is characterized by switches between 2 regression equations where the timing of the switches is unknown. A well-known difficulty...
