This paper concerns a new statistical approach to instrumental variables (IV) method for nonparametric structural models with additive errors. A general identifying condition of the model is proposed, based on richness of the space generated by marginal discretizations of joint density...

The nonparametric censored regression model, with a fixed, known censoring point (normalized to zero), is y=max[0,m(x)+e], where both the regression function m(x) and the distribution of the error e are unknown. This paper provides consistent estimators of m(x) and its derivatives with respect...
