Shift Restrictions and Semiparametric Estimation in Ordered Response Models
نویسندگان
چکیده
We develop a √ n-consistent and asymptotically normal estimator of the parameters (regression coefficients and threshold points) of a semiparametric ordered response model under the assumption of independence of errors and regressors. The independence assumption implies shift restrictions allowing identification of threshold points up to location and scale. The estimator is useful in various applications, particularly in new product demand forecasting from survey data subject to systematic misreporting. We apply the estimator to assess exaggeration bias in survey data on demand for a new telecommunications service.

Detection of Outliers and Influential Observations in Linear Ridge Measurement Error Models with Stochastic Linear Restrictions
The aim of this paper is to propose some diagnostic methods in linear ridge measurement error models with stochastic linear restrictions using the corrected likelihood. Based on the bias-corrected estimation of model parameters, diagnostic measures are developed to identify outlying and influential observations. In addition, we derive the corrected score test statistic for outliers detection ba...
متن کاملGeneralized Ridge Regression Estimator in Semiparametric Regression Models
In the context of ridge regression, the estimation of ridge (shrinkage) parameter plays an important role in analyzing data. Many efforts have been put to develop skills and methods of computing shrinkage estimators for different full-parametric ridge regression approaches, using eigenvalues. However, the estimation of shrinkage parameter is neglected for semiparametric regression models. The m...
متن کاملSemiparametric Double Index Model Identi cation and Estimation
This paper generalizes the notion of identi cation by functional form to semiparametric contexts. It considers identi cation and estimation of the function F and vector B where M(X) = F[X'B, G(X)], assuming the functions M and G are identied. Identi cation in these models is typically obtained by parametric restrictions or by instrument exclusion restrictions, e.g., assuming that an element of ...
متن کاملSemiparametric Qualitative Response Model Estimation with Unknown Heteroscedasticity or Instrumental Variables
This paper provides estimators of discrete choice models, including binary, ordered, and multinomial response (choice) models. The estimators closely resemble ordinary and two stage least squares. The distribution of the models latent variable error is unknown and may be related to the regressors, e.g., the model could have errors that are heteroscedastic or correlated with regressors. The est...

Moment restriction-based econometric modelling is a broad class which includes the parametric, semiparametric and nonparametric approaches. Moments and conditional moments themselves are nonparametric quantities. If a model is specified in part up to some finite dimensional parameters, this will provide semiparametric estimates or tests. If we use the score to construct moment restrictions to e...
