Modeling the interdependence of volatility and inter-transaction duration processes
Grammig, Joachim; Wellner, Marc - 1999
-transaction duration process and vice versa. In order to solve the estimation problems implied by this interdependent formulation, we first … propose a GMM estimation procedure for the Autoregressive Conditional Duration model. The method is then extended to the … simultaneous estimation of the interdependent duration-volatility model. In an empirical application we utilize the model for an …

Semiparametric analysis of German East-West migration intentions : facts and theory
Burda, Michael C.; Härdle, Wolfgang; Müller, Marlene; … - 1997
East-West migration in Germany peaked at the beginning of the 90s although the average wage gap between Eastern and Western Germany continues to average about 25%. We analyze the propensity to migrate using microdata from the German Socioeconomic Panel. Fitting a parametric Generalized Linear...
