We highlight a fast subsampling method that can be used to provide valid inference in nonlinear dynamic econometric models. This method is based on the subsampling theory proposed by Politis and Romano (1992, 1994) which computes an estimator on subsamples of the data and uses these estimates to...

We provide new methods for inference in econometric models where the parameter of interest is a set. These models arise in many situations where point identification requires strong (and sometimes untestable) assumptions. Every parameter vector in the set of interest represents a feasible...

We provide a practical method to estimate the payoff functions of players in complete information, static, discrete games. With respect to the empirical literature on entry games originated by Bresnahan and Reiss (1990) and Berry (1992), the main novelty of our framework is to allow for general...

Parametric mixture models are commonly used in applied work, especially empirical economics, where these models are often employed to learn for example about the proportions of various types in a given population. This paper examines the inference question on the proportions (mixing probability)...

In this article we propose an inferential procedure for transformation models with conditional heteroscedasticity in the error terms. The proposed method is robust to covariate dependent censoring of arbitrary form. We provide sufficient conditions for point identification. We then propose an...

We provide methods for inference on a finite dimensional parameter of interest, theta in Re^{d_theta}, in a semiparametric probability model when an infinite dimensional nuisance parameter, g, is present. We depart from the semiparametric literature in that we do not require that the pair...

We introduce a notion of median uncorrelation that is a natural extension of mean (linear) uncorrelation. A scalar random variable Y is median uncorrelated with a kdimensional random vector X if and only if the slope from an LAD regression of Y on X is zero. Using this simple definition, we...
