This paper uses information theoretic methods to introduce a new class of probability distributions and estimators for competing explanations of the data in the binary choice model. No explicit parameterization of the function connecting the data to the Bernoulli probabilities is stated in the...

The Cressie-Read (CR) family of power divergence measures is used to identify a new class of statistical models and estimators for competing explanations of the data in binary choice models. A large flexible class of cumulative distribution functions and associated probability density functions...

This paper introduces a new class of estimators based on minimization of the Cressie-Read (CR) power divergence measure for binary choice models, where neither a parameterized distribution nor a parameterization of the mean is specified explicitly in the statistical model. By incorporating...
