Department of Mathematics - Seminar on Statistics - Double Cross Validation for the Number of Factors in Approximate Factor Models
Determining the number of factoArs is essential to factor analysis. In this paper, we propose an efficient cross validation (CV) method to determine the number of factors in the approximate factor model.
