摘要：
It is important to quantify the differences in returns to skills using the online job advertisements data, which have attracted great interest in both labor economics and statistics fields. In this paper, we study the relationship between the posted salary and the job requirements in online labor markets. There are two challenges to deal with. First, the posted salary is always presented in an interval-valued form, for example, 5k-10k yuan per month. Simply taking the mid-point or the lower bound as the alternative for salary may result in biased estimators. Second, the number of the potential skill words as predictors generated from the job advertisements by word segmentation is very large and many of them may not contribute to the salary. To this end, we propose a new feature screening method, Absolute Distribution Difference Sure Independence Screening (ADD-SIS), to select important skill words for the interval-valued response. The marginal utility for feature screening is based on the difference of estimated distribution functions via nonparametric maximum likelihood estimation, which sufficiently uses the interval information. It is model-free and robust to outliers. Numerical simulations show that the new method using the interval information is more efficient to select important predictors than the methods only based on the single points of the intervals. In the real data application, we study the text data of job advertisements for data scientists and data analysts in a major China's online job posting website, and explore the important skill words for the salary. We find that the skill words like optimization, long short-term memory (LSTM), convolutional neural networks (CNN), collaborative filtering, are positively correlated with the salary while the words like Excel, Office, datacollection, may negatively contribute to the salary.
