A class of indirect inference estimators: higher‐order asymptotics and approximate bias correction
一类间接推断估计量:高阶渐近性质与近似偏误校正
In this paper, we define a set of indirect inference estimators based on moment approximations of the auxiliary estimators. Their introduction is motivated by reasons of analytical and computational facilitation. Their definition provides an indirect inference framework for some classical bias correction procedures. We derive higher‐order asymptotic properties of these estimators. We demonstrate that under our assumption framework, and in the special case of deterministic…
