Censored Normal Regression with Measurement Error on the Dependent Variable
因变量存在测量误差的删失正态回归
When zero mean measurement error is added to the dependent variable for the nonlimit observations of the censored normal regression model, the conventional maximum likelihood estimator (Tobit) is inconsistent. Correct maximum likelihood estimation appears to be computationally difficult under various specifications for the distribution of the measurement error. Estimators based on either the expectation function or the conditional expectation function for uncensored…
