Estimation Problems for Samples with Measurement Errors

Longer Version of Identification and Estimation of Nonlinear Models Using Two Samples with Nonclassical Measurement Errors

This paper considers identification and estimation of a general nonlinear Errors-in-Variables (EIV) model using two samples. Both samples consist of a dependent variable, some error-free covariates, and an error-prone covariate, for which the measurement error has unknown distribution and could be arbitrarily correlated with the latent true values; and neither sample contains an accurate measur...

Corrected-loss estimation for quantile regression with covariate measurement errors.

We study estimation in quantile regression when covariates are measured with errors. Existing methods require stringent assumptions, such as spherically symmetric joint distribution of the regression and measurement error variables, or linearity of all quantile functions, which restrict model flexibility and complicate computation. In this paper, we develop a new estimation approach based on co...

Instrumental Variables Regression with Measurement Errors and Multicollinearity in Instruments

In this paper we obtain a consistent estimator when there exist some measurement errors and multicollinearity in the instrumental variables in a two stage least square estimation of parameters. We investigate the asymptotic distribution of the proposed estimator and discuss its properties using some theoretical proofs and a simulation study. A real numerical application is also provided for mor...
