含测量误差的删失结构潜变量模型AI 解读

We consider censored structural latent variables models where some exogenous variables are subject to additive measurement errors. We demonstrate that overidentification conditions can be exploited to provide natural instruments for the variables measured with errors, and we propose a two-stage estimation procedure. The first stage involves substituting available instruments in lieu of the variables that are measured with errors and estimating the resulting reduced form…

截断回归模型的半参数估计AI 解读

This paper proposes a new semiparametric estimator for the truncated regression model under the independence restriction. Many existing approaches such as those in Lee (1992) and Honoré and Powell (1994) are moment-based methods, whereas our approach makes use of the entire truncated distribution. As a result, our approach is expected to require weaker identification and to have more favorable performance. Our simulation results suggest that our estimator outperforms that of…

二元 Tobit 模型的半参数估计AI 解读

The existing semiparametric estimation literature has mainly focused on univariate Tobit models and no semiparametric estimation has been considered for bivariate Tobit models. In this paper, we consider semiparametric estimation of the bivariate Tobit model proposed by Amemiya (1974), under the independence condition without imposing any parametric restriction on the error distribution. Our estimator is shown to be consistent and asymptotically normal, and simulation…

对称性下样本选择模型的半参数与非参数估计AI 解读

This paper considers the semiparametric estimation of binary choice sample selection models under a joint symmetry assumption. Our approaches overcome various drawbacks associated with existing estimators. In particular, our method provides root-n consistent estimators for both the intercept and slope parameters of the outcome equation in a heteroscedastic framework, without the usual cross equation exclusion restriction or parametric specification for the error distribution…

广义删失分位数回归模型的积分最大得分估计AI 解读

Quantile regression techniques have been widely used in empirical economics. In this paper, we consider the estimation of a generalized quantile regression model when data are subject to fixed or random censoring. Through a discretization technique, we transform the censored regression model into a sequence of binary choice models and further propose an integrated smoothed maximum score estimator by combining individual binary choice models, following the insights ofÂ…

截断回归模型的非参数识别与估计AI 解读

In this paper, we consider non-parametric identification and estimation of truncated regression models in both cross-sectional and panel data settings. For the cross-sectional case, Lewbel and Linton (2002) considered non-parametric identification and estimation through continuous variation under a log-concavity condition on the error distribution. We obtain non-parametric identification under weaker conditions. In particular, we obtain non-parametric identification through…

时变因子载荷下非平稳删失面板模型的半参数估计AI 解读

We propose an estimation procedure for a semiparametric panel data censored regression model in which the error terms may be subject to general forms of nonstationarity. Specifically, we allow for heteroskedasticity over time and a time varying factor load on the individual specific effect. Empirically, estimation of this model would be of interest to explore how returns to unobserved skills change over time—see, e.g., Chay (1995, manuscript, Princeton University) and Chay…

比例风险回归中的局部偏似然估计AI 解读

Fan, Gijbels and King [Ann. Statist. 25 (1997) 1661–1690] considered the estimation of the risk function ψ(x) in the proportional hazards model. Their proposed estimator is based on integrating the estimated derivative function obtained through a local version of the partial likelihood. They proved the large sample properties of the derivative function, but the large sample properties of the estimator for the risk function itself were not established. In this paper, we…

删失位置—尺度回归模型的非参数识别与估计AI 解读

In this article we consider identification and estimation of a censored nonparametric location scale-model. We first show that in the case where the location function is strictly less than the (fixed) censoring point for all values in the support of the explanatory variables, the location function is not identified anywhere. In contrast, when the location function is greater or equal to the censoring point with positive probability, the location function is identified on the…

异方差样本选择模型的半参数估计AI 解读

This paper considers estimation of a sample selection model subject to conditional heteroskedasticity in both the selection and outcome equations. The form of heteroskedasticity allowed for in each equation is multiplicative, and each of the two scale functions is left unspecified. A three-step estimator for the parameters of interest in the outcome equation is proposed. The first two stages involve nonparametric estimation of the “propensity score” and the conditional…

部分线性删失回归模型的半参数估计AI 解读

In this paper we propose an estimation procedure for a censored regression model where the latent regression function has a partially linear form. Based on a conditional quantile restriction, we estimate the model by a two stage procedure. The first stage nonparametrically estimates the conditional quantile function at in-sample and appropriate out-of-sample points, and the second stage involves a simple weighted least squares procedure. The proposed procedure is shown to…

二元选择模型中位置参数的半参数估计AI 解读

This paper considers the estimation of a location parameter in the binary choice model with some weak distributional assumptions imposed on the error term in the latent regression model. Two estimators are proposed here, both of which are two-step estimators; in the first step, the slope parameters are consistently estimated by existing methods; in the second step, the location parameter is consistently estimated based on a moment condition. The estimators are shown to be…

样本选择模型的有效半参数评分估计AI 解读

A semiparametric likelihood method is proposed for the estimation of sample selection models. The method is a two-step semiparametric scoring estimation procedure based on an index restriction and kernel estimation. Under some regularity conditions, the estimator is square-root n -consistent and asymptotically normal. The estimator is also asymptotically efficient in the sense that its asymptotic covariance matrix attains the semiparametric efficiency bound under the index…
