We propose a multivariate normality test against skew normal distributions using higher-order loglikelihood derivatives which is asymptotically equivalent to the likelihood ratio but only requires estimation under the null. Numerically, it is the supremum of the univariate skewness coefficient...

This paper introduces Stata commands [R] npivreg and [R] npivregcv, which implement nonparametric instrumental variable (NPIV) estimation methods without and with a cross-validated choice of tuning parameters, respectively. Both commands are able to impose monotonicity of the estimated function....

Parametric copulas are shown to be attractive devices for specifying quantile autoregressive models for nonlinear time-series. Estimation of local, quantile-specific copula-based time series models offers some salient advantages over classical global parametric approaches. Consistency and...

We consider median regression and, more generally, quantile regression in high-dimensional sparse models. In these … case the ordinary quantile regression is not consistent, we consider quantile regression penalized by the L1-norm of … that applies ordinary quantile regression to the selected model. Fifth, we evaluate the performance of L1-QR in a Monte …

We give semiparametric identification and estimation results for econometric models with a regressor that is endogenous, bound censored and selected, called a Tobin regressor. First, we show that true parameter value is set identified and characterize the identification sets. Second, we propose...
