Semi‐linear mode regression
半线性众数回归
In this paper, I estimate the slope coefficient parameter β of the regression model Y=X′β+φ(V)+e, where the error term e satisfies Mode(e&7CX,V)=0 almost surely and ϕ is an unknown function. It is possible to achieve n−2/7‐consistency for estimating β when ϕ is known up to a finite‐dimensional parameter. I present a consistent and asymptotically normal estimator for β, which does not require prescribing a functional form for ϕ, let alone a parametrization. Furthermore, the…
