We consider a dynamic panel AR(1) model with fixed effects when both "n" and "T" are large. Under the "T fixed n large" asymptotic approximation, the maximum likelihood estimator is known to be inconsistent due to the well-known incidental parameter problem. We consider an alternative asymptotic...

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)...
