This is an interesting article that considers the question of inference on unknown linear index coefficients in a general class of models where reduced form parameters are invertible function of one or more linear index. Interpretable sufficient conditions such as monotonicity and or smoothness for the invertibility condition are provided. The results generalize some work in the previous literature by allowing the number of reduced form parameters to exceed the number of indices. The identification and estimation expand on the approach taken in previous work by the authors. Examples include Ahn, Powell, and Ichimura (2004) for monotone single-index regression models to a multi-index setting and extended by Blundell and Powell (2004) and Powell and Ruud (2008) to models with endogenous regressors and multinomial response, respectively. A key property of the inference approach taken is that the estimator of the unknown index coefficients (up to scale) is computationally simple to obtain (relative to other estimators in the literature) in that it is closed form. Specifically, unifying an approach for all models considered in this article, the authors propose an estimator, which is the eigenvector of a matrix (defined in terms of a preliminary estimator of the reduced form parameters) corresponding to its smallest eigenvalue. Under suitable conditions, the proposed estimator is shown to be root-n-consistent and asymptotically normal. 相似文献

The article by Müller, Quintana, and Page reviews a variety of Bayesian nonparametric models and demonstrates them in a few applications. They emphasize applications in spatial data on which our discussion focuses as well. In particular, we consider two types of mixture models based on species sampling models (SSM) for spatial clustering and apply them to the Chilean mathematics testing score data analyzed by the authors. We conclude that only the mixture model of SSM with spatial locations as part of observations renders spatially non-overlapping clusters. 相似文献

The Statistical Policy Division of the Office of Management and Budget has the overall responsibility for the planning and coordination of U.S. government statistics. The present staff of the Statistical Policy Division is attempting, through an integrated publication entitled “A Framework for Planning U.S. Federal Statistics, 1978–1989,” to state its perspective on necessary developments in the coming years. This article illustrates the character of the Framework materials and outlines the process for public review and comment on this undertaking. 相似文献

This paper deals with a nonparametric Nadaraya–Watson (NW) estimator of the drift function computed from independent continuous observations of a diffusion process. Risk bounds on the estimator and its discrete-time approximation are established. The paper also deals with extensions of the PCO and leave-one-out cross-validation bandwidth selection methods for our NW estimator. Finally, some numerical experiments are provided. 相似文献
