In this paper we study inference for a conditional model with a jump in the conditional density, where the location and size of the jump are described by regression lines. This interesting structure is shared by several structural econometric models. Two prominent examples are the standard...

This paper studies computationally and theoretically attractive estimators referred here as to the Laplace type estimators (LTE). The LTE include means and quantiles of Quasi-posterior distributions defined as transformations of general (non-likelihood-based) statistical criterion functions,...
