In this paper, we propose a new class of regime shift models with exible switching mechanism that relies on a nonparametric probability function of the observed thresh- old variables. The proposed models generally embrace traditional threshold models with contaminated threshold variables or...

In the work a characterization of difference of multivariate Gaussian measures is found on the family of centered Eucledian balls. In particular, it helps to derive (xx see paper).

IV regression in the context of a re-sampling is considered in the work. Comparatively, the contribution in the development is a structural identication in the IV model. The work also contains a multiplier-bootstrap justication.
