Estimation in semiparametric models with missing data

چکیده
This paper considers the problem of parameter estimation in a general class of semiparametric models when observations are subject to missingness at random. The semiparametric models allow for estimating functions that are non-smooth with respect to the parameter. We propose a nonparametric imputation method for the missing values, which then leads to imputed estimating equations for the finite dimensional parameter of interest. The asymptotic normality of the parameter estimator is proved in a general setting, and is investigated in detail for a number of specific semiparametric models. Finally, we study the small sample performance of the proposed estimator via simulations.

Efficient Estimation of Population-Level Summaries in General Semiparametric Regression Models
This article considers a wide class of semiparametric regression models in which interest focuses on population-level quantities that combine both the parametric and the nonparametric parts of the model. Special cases in this approach include generalized partially linear models, generalized partially linear single-index models, structural measurement error models, and many others. For estimatin...
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 کاملDiscrete Choice Models for Nonmonotone Nonignorable Missing Data: Identification and Inference
Nonmonotone missing data arise routinely in empirical studies of social and health sciences, and when ignored, can induce selection bias and loss of efficiency. In practice, it is common to account for nonresponse under a missing-at-random assumption which although convenient, is rarely appropriate when nonresponse is nonmonotone. Likelihood and Bayesian missing data methodologies often require...
متن کاملRobust high-dimensional semiparametric regression using optimized differencing method applied to the vitamin B2 production data
Background and purpose: By evolving science, knowledge, and technology, we deal with high-dimensional data in which the number of predictors may considerably exceed the sample size. The main problems with high-dimensional data are the estimation of the coefficients and interpretation. For high-dimension problems, classical methods are not reliable because of a large number of predictor variable...
متن کاملRidge Stochastic Restricted Estimators in Semiparametric Linear Measurement Error Models
In this article we consider the stochastic restricted ridge estimation in semipara-metric linear models when the covariates are measured with additive errors. The development of penalized corrected likelihood method in such model is the basis for derivation of ridge estimates. The asymptotic normality of the resulting estimates are established. Also, necessary and sufficient condition...
