Abstract

In this article, we present gsreg, a new automatic model-selection technique for cross-section, time-series, and panel-data regressions. Like other exhaustive search algorithms (for example, vselect), gsreg avoids characteristic path-dependence traps of standard approaches as well as backward- and forwardlooking approaches (like PcGets or relevant transformation of the inputs network approach). However, gsreg is the first code that 1) guarantees optimality with out-of-sample selection criteria; 2) allows residual testing for each alternative; and 3) provides (depending on user specifications) a full-information dataset with outcome statistics for every alternative model.
