This paper proposes a minimum distance (MD) estimator to estimate panel regression models with measurement error. The model considered is more general than examined in the literature in that (i) measurement error can be non-classical in the sense that they are allowed to be correlated with the...

Much of the analysis of panel data has been based on an assumption of strict exogeneity. Distributions are specified for outcome variables conditional on a latent individual effect and conditional on observed predictor variables at all dates, with the future values of the predictor variables...

Im Allgemeinen nutzen Forscherinnen und Forscher Daten-Transformationen als Hilfsmittel für die wissenschaftliche Arbeit unter den klassischen und linearen gemischten Regressionsmodellen, anstatt neue Theorien zu entwickeln, komplexe Methoden anzuwenden oder Softwarefunktionen zu erweitern....

Motivated by a recent literature on the double-descent phenomenon in machine learning, we consider highly over-parameterized models in causal inference, including synthetic control with many control units. In such models, there may be so many free parameters that the model fits the training data...

The synthetic control method is widely used in comparative case studies to adjust for differences in pre-treatment characteristics. A major attraction of the method is that it limits extrapolation bias that can occur when untreated units with different pre-treatment characteristics are combined...
