In this study, we investigated a semiparametric model for the analysis of case-control data by relaxing the linearity assumption of risk factors by...

This chapter reviews recent advances in nonparametric and semiparametric estimation, with an emphasis on applicability to empirical research and on resolving issues that arise in implementation. It considers techniques for estimating densities, conditional mean functions, derivatives of...
