Adaptive estimation for some nonparametric instrumental variable models with full independence
نویسندگان
چکیده
The problem of endogeneity in statistics and econometrics is often handled by introducing instrumental variables (IV) which fulfill the mean independence assumption, i.e. unobservable independent instruments. When full IV’s assumed, nonparametric IV regression models demand lead to nonlinear integral equations with unknown kernels. We prove convergence rates for integrated square error iteratively regularized Newton method applied these problems. Compared related results we derive stronger that rely on weaker nonlinearity restrictions. demonstrate numerical simulations a produces better than standard model.

Instrumental Variables Estimation of Nonparametric Models with Discrete Endogenous Regressors
This paper presents new instrumental variables estimators for nonparametric models with discrete endogenous regressors. The model speci cation is su ciently general to include structural models, triangular simultaneous equations and certain models of measurement error. Restricting the analysis to discrete endogenous regressors is an integral component of the analysis since a similar model with ...
متن کاملApplied Nonparametric Instrumental Variables Estimation
Instrumental variables are widely used in applied econometrics to achieve identification and carry out estimation and inference in models that contain endogenous explanatory variables. In most applications, the function of interest (e.g., an Engel curve or demand function) is assumed to be known up to finitely many parameters (e.g., a linear model), and instrumental variables are used identify ...
متن کاملCensored Quantile Instrumental Variable Estimation with Stata
Many applications involve a censored dependent variable and an endogenous independent variable. Chernozhukov et al. (2015) introduced a censored quantile instrumental variable estimator (CQIV) for use in those applications, which has been applied by Kowalski (2016), among others. In this article, we introduce a Stata command, cqiv, that simplifes application of the CQIV estimator in Stata. We s...
متن کاملGeneralised instrumental variable models
The ability to allow for flexible forms of unobserved heterogeneity is an essential ingredient in modern microeconometrics. In this paper we extend the application of instrumental variable (IV) methods to a wide class of problems in which multiple values of unobservable variables can be associated with particular combinations of observed endogenous and exogenous variables. In our Generalized In...
