This paper deals with the conditional hazard estimator of a real response where the variable is given a functional random variable (i.e it takes values in an infinite-dimensional space). Specifically, we focus on the functional index model. This approach offers a good com- promise between...

High-frequency data can provide us with a quantity of informa- tion for forecasting, help to calculate and prevent the future risk based on extremes. This tail behaviour is very often driven by ex- ogenous components and may be modelled conditional on other vari- ables. However, many of these...

Motivated by Chaudhuri's work (1996) on unconditional geometric quantiles, we explore the asymptotic properties of sample geometric conditional quantiles, defined through kernel functions, in high dimensional spaces. We establish a Bahadur type linear representation for the geometric conditional...

Confidence intervals and joint confidence sets are constructed for the nonparametric calibration of exponential Lévy models based on prices of European options. This is done by showing joint asymptotic normality for the estimation of the volatility, the drift, the intensity and the Lévy...

Central limit theorems are developed for instrumental variables estimates of linear and semi-parametric partly linear regression models for spatial data. General forms of spatial dependenceand heterogeneity in explanatory variables and unobservable disturbances are permitted. We discuss...

An extended single-index model is considered when responses are missing at random. A three-step estimation procedure is developed to define an estimator for the single index parameter vector by a joint estimating equation. The proposed estimator is shown to be asymptotically normal. An iterative...
