The entropy principle yields, for a given set moments, a density that involves the smallest amount of prior information. We first show how entropy densities may be constructed in a numerically efficient way as the minimization of a potential. Next, for the case where the first four moments are...

This paper deals with subsampling continuous random fields for approximating the distribution of statistics estimating some unknown parameter.

In this poper we present a consistent spacification test of a parametric regression function against a general nonparametric alternative. The proposed test is based on wavelet estimation ant it is shown to have similar rates of convergence to the more commonly used kernel based tests.

In this paper, we study maximum likelihood estimation and Lagrange multiplier testing of a one-way error components regression model suitable for incomplete panel and including parametrically specified variance functions for both individual-specific and general error disturbances.

This paper proposes alternative methods for constructing estimators from accept-reject samples by incorporating the variables rejected by the algorithm.

This paper synthesises a global approach to both Bayesian and likelihood treatments of the estimation of the parameters of a hidden Markov model for the cases of normal and Poisson underlying distribution.

This paper puts forth a concept of Adptivety Rational Equilibrium (A.R.E) where agents base decisions upon predictions of future values of endogenous variables whose actual values are determined by equilibrium equations.
