A Robust Permutation Test for Subvector Inference in Linear Regressions
We develop a new permutation test for inference on a subvector of coefficients in linear models. The test is exact when the regressors and the error terms are independent. Then, we show that the test is asymptotically of correct level, consistent and has power against local alternatives when the independence condition is relaxed, under two main conditions. The first is a slight reinforcement of the usual absence of correlation between the regressors and the error term. The second is that the number of strata, defined by values of the regressors not involved in the subvector test, is small compared to the sample size. The latter implies that the vector of nuisance regressors is discrete. Simulations and empirical illustrations suggest that the test has good power in practice if, indeed, the number of strata is small compared to the sample size.

Vector Embeddings with Subvector Permutation Invariance using a Triplet Enhanced Autoencoder
The use of deep neural network (DNN) autoencoders (AEs) has recently exploded due to their wide applicability. However, the embedding representation produced by a standard DNN AE that is trained to minimize only the reco…
