We propose an estimation methodology for a semiparametric quantile factor panel model. We provide tools for inference that are robust to the existence of moments and to the form of weak cross-sectional dependence in the idiosyncratic error term. We apply our method to CRSP daily data

This article investigates the variation in the effects of various determinants on the per capita health care expenditure. A total of 28 OECD countries are studied over the period 1990-2012, employing an instrumental variable quantile regression method for a dynamic panel model with fixed...

In this paper, a semiparametric single-index model is investigated. The link function is allowed to be unbounded and has unbounded support that answers a pending issue in the literature. Meanwhile, the link function is treated as a point in an infinitely many dimensional function space which...

In this paper, the important (but so far unrevealed) usefulness of the extended generalized partially linear single-index (EGPLSI) model introduced by Xia et al. (1999) in its ability to model a flexible shape-invariant specification is elaborated. More importantly, a control function approach...

In this paper, we propose a state-varying endogenous regime switching model (the SERS model), which includes the endogenous regime switching model by Chang, Choi and Park (2017), the CCP model, as a special case. To estimate the unknown parameters involved in the SERS model, we propose a maximum...
