We propose semiparametric GMM estimation of semiparametric spatial autoregressive (SAR) models under weak moment conditions. In comparison with the quasi-maximum-likelihood-based semiparametric estimator of Su and Jin (2010), we allow for both heteroscedasticity and spatial dependence in the...

cointegrating relationships from each individual unit, and the nonlinear IV panel unit root testing procedure is applied to the … for the null of a fully non-cointegrated panel against the alternative of a mixed panel, i.e., a panel with only some … cointegrated units. We also consider the maximum of the IV t-ratios to test for a mixed panel against a fully cointegrated panel …

We construct two classes of smoothed empirical likelihood ratio tests for the conditional independence hypothesis by writing the null hypothesis as an infinite collection of conditional moment restrictions indexed by a nuisance parameter. One class is based on the CDF; another is based on smoother...

This paper provides a nonparametric test of the specification of a transformation model. Specifically, we test whether an observable outcome Y is monotonic in the sum of a function of observable covariates X plus an unobservable error U. Transformation models of this form are commonly assumed in...

Motivated by the first-differencing method for linear panel data models, we propose a class of iterative local … polynomial estimators for nonparametric dynamic panel data models with or without exogenous regressors. The estimators utilize … test for the correct specification of linearity in typical dynamic panel data models based on the L2 distance of our …
