Parametric mixture models are commonly used in applied work, especially empiri- cal 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...

This paper makes several important contributions to the literature about non- parametric instrumental variables (NPIV ) estimation and inference on a structural function h 0 and functionals of h 0 .First,wederivesup-normconvergence rates for computationally simple sieve NPIV (series two-stage...

This paper makes several important contributions to the literature about nonparametric instrumental variables (NPIV) estimation and inference on a structural function h0 and its functionals. First, we derive sup-norm convergence rates for computationally simple sieve NPIV (series 2SLS)...

This paper considers inference on functionals of semi/nonparametric conditional moment restrictions with possibly nonsmooth generalized residuals, which include all of the (nonlinear) nonparametric instrumental variables (IV) as special cases. For these models it is often difficult to verify...

This paper considers inference on functionals of semi/nonparametric conditional moment restrictions with possibly nonsmooth generalized residuals, which include all of the (nonlinear) nonparametric instrumental variables (IV) as special cases. There models are often illposed and hence it is...
