In many problems one wants to model the relationship between a response Y and a covariate X. Sometimes it is difficult, expensive, or even impossible to observe X directly, but one can instead observe a substitute variable W which is easier to obtain. By far the most common model for the...

We consider the partially linear model relating a response Y to predictors (X,T) with mean function XT β + g(T) when the T's are measured with additive error. We derive an estimator of β by modification local-likelihood method. The resulting estimator of β is shown to be asymptotically...

We consider the partially linear model relating a response Y to predictors (X,T) with mean function XT ß + g (T) when the X's are measured with additive error. The semiparametric likelihood estimate of Severini and Staniswalis (1994) leads to biased estimates of both the parameter ß and the...

We consider the problem of estimating quantile regression coefficients in errors-in-variables models. When the error variables for both the response and the manifest variables have a joint distribution that is spherically symmetric but otherwise unknown, the regression quantile estimates based...
