In this paper, we investigate the information content of implied probabilities (Back and Brown, 1993) to improve estimation in unconditional moment conditions models. We propose and evaluate two 3-step euclidian empirical likelihood estimators and their bias-correction versions for weakly...

We consider asymmetric kernel density estimators and smoothed histogramswhen the unknown probability density function f is defined on [0, +∞). Uniform weak consistency on each compact set in [0, +∞) is proved for these estimators when "f" is continuous on its support. Weak convergence in L...

This paper focuses on the robust Effcient Method of Moments (EMM) estimation of a general parametric stationary process and proposes a broad framework for constructing robust EMM statistics in this context. This extends the application field of robust statistics to very general time series...
