In this chapter, we use the minimum cross-entropy method to derive an approximate joint probability model for a multivariate economic process based on limited information about the marginal quasi-density functions and the joint moment conditions. The modeling approach is related to joint...

We propose a quasi–maximum likelihood estimator for the location parameters of a linear regression model with bounded and symmetrically distributed errors. The error outcomes are restated as the convex combination of the bounds, and we use the method of maximum entropy to derive the...
