Instrumental variable analysis.
The main advantage of the randomized controlled trial (RCT) is the random assignment of treatment that prevents selection by prognosis. Nevertheless, only few RCTs can be performed given their high cost and the difficulties in conducting such studies. Therefore, several analytical methods for removing the effects of selection bias in observational studies have been proposed. The first aim of th...
متن کاملAnalysis of Additive Instrumental Variable Models
We apply Bayesian methods to a model involving a binary endogenous regressor and an instrumental variable in which the functional forms of some of the covariates in both the treatment assignment and outcome distributions are unknown. Continuous and binary response variables are considered. Under the assumption that the functional form is additive in the covariates, we develop efficient Markov c...
متن کاملInstrumental Variable Subspace Tracking
Subspace estimation plays an important role in, for example, sensor array signal processing. Recursive methods for subspace tracking with application to non-stationary environments , have also drawn considerable interest. In this paper, Instrumental Variable (IV) extensions of the recently developed Projection Approximation Subspace Tracking (PAST) algorithm are presented. The IV-approach is mo...
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...
