We review approaches to identification and inference on models in Industrial Organization with partial identification and/or moment inequalities. Often, such approaches are intentionally built directly on assumptions of optimizing behavior that are credible in Industrial Organization settings,...

Consider the linear model E[y|x] = x′β where one is interested in learning about β given data on y and x and when y is interval measured, i.e., we observe ([y0,y1],x) such that P(y ∈ [y0,y1]) = 1. Moment inequality procedures use the implication E[y0|x] ≤ x′β ≤ E[y1|x]. As compared...

This paper computes the semiparametric efficiency bound for finite dimensional parameters identified by models of sequential moment restrictions containing unknown functions. Our results extend those of Chamberlain (1992b) and Ai and Chen (2003) for semiparametric conditional moment restriction...

This paper studies nonparametric estimation of conditional moment models in which the residual functions could be nonsmooth with respect to the unknown functions of endogenous variables. It is a problem of nonparametric nonlinear instrumental variables (IV) estimation, and a difficult nonlinear...
