Consider the partial linear models of the formY=X[tau][beta]+g(T)+e, where thep-variate explanatoryXis erroneously measured, and bothTand the responseYare measured exactly. LetXbe the surrogate variable forXwith measurement error. Let the primary data set be that containing independent...

Using a two-stage hedonic pricing methodology we estimate a system of structural demand equations for different sources of transport-related noise. In the first stage, we identify market segments using model-based clustering techniques and estimate separate hedonic price functions (HPFs) for...

This paper considers several estimators for estimating the biasing parameter in the study of partial linear models in the presence of multicollinearity. After exhibiting the MSE of ridge estimator based on eigenvalues of design matrix, a simulation study has been conducted to compare the...

Two-stage data envelopment analysis (2-DEA) is commonly used in productive efficiency analysis to estimate the effects of operational conditions and practices on performance. In this method the DEA efficiency estimates are regressed on contextual variables representing the operational...

In this paper, we introduce a semi-functional linear model in which a scalar response variable is explained by a linear operator of a random function and a nonparametric function of a real-valued random variable. We study the spline estimators of the functional coefficient and nonparametric...
