In this paper, we study the large‐sample properties of the posterior‐based inference in the curved exponential family under increasing dimensions. The curved structure arises from the imposition of various restrictions on the model, such as moment restrictions, and plays a fundamental role...

In this paper we develop a new censored quantile instrumental variable (CQIV) estimator and describe its properties and computation. The CQIV estimator combines Powell (1986) censored quantile regression (CQR) to deal with censoring, with a control variable approach to incorporate endogenous...

In parametric models a sufficient condition for local identification is that the vector of moment conditions is differentiable at the true parameter with full rank derivative matrix. We show that additional conditions are often needed in nonlinear, nonparametric models to avoid nonlinearities...

We propose a self-tuning √ Lasso method that simultaneiously resolves three important practical problems in high-dimensional regression analysis, namely it handles the unknown scale, heteroscedasticity, and (drastic) non-Gaussianity of the noise. In addition, our analysis allows for badly...

We present the clrbound, clr2bound, clr3bound and clrtest commands for estimation and inference developed by Chernozhukov et al. (2013). The commands clrbound, clr2bound and clr3bound provide bound estimates that can be used directly for estimation or to construct asymptotically valid confidence...

We propose robust methods for inference on the effect of a treatment variable on a scalar outcome in the presence of very many controls. Our setting is a partially linear model with possibly non-Gaussian and heteroscedastic disturbances where the number of controls may be much larger than the...

In the first part of the paper, we consider estimation and inference on policy relevant treatment effects, such as local average and local quantile treatment effects, in a data-rich environment where there may be many more control variables available than there are observations. In addition to...

We present the clrbound, clr2bound, clr3bound, and clrtest com-mands for estimation and inference on intersection bounds as developed by Chernozhukov et al. (2013). The intersection bounds framework encompasses situa-tions where a population parameter of interest is partially identiï¬ed by a...

This paper provides inference methods for best linear approximations to functions which are known to lie within a band. It extends the partial identification literature by allowing the upper and lower functions defining the band to be any functions, including ones carrying an index, which can be...

This paper considers inference in logistic regression models with high dimensional data. We propose new methods for estimating and constructing confidence regions for a regression parameter of primary interest ?0 a parameter in front of the regressor of interest, such as the treatment variable...
