The paper proposes a cross-validation method to address the question of specification search in a multiple nonlinear quantile regression framework. Linear parametric, spline-based partially linear and kernel-based fully nonparametric specifications are contrasted as competitors using...

SUMMARY Semiparametric quantile regression is employed to flexibly estimate sales response for frequently purchased consumer goods. Using retail store‐level data, we compare the performance of models with and without monotonic smoothing for fit and prediction accuracy. We find that (a)...

This paper presents a comprehensive approach to estimation and hypothesis testing under a set of full restrictions, some of these arising from adding-up conditions on the endogenous variable. In contrast to the existing statistical literature, this paper uses an argumentation style familiar from...

This paper studies the asymptotic behaviour of the unconditional quantile estimator for dependent random variables. Our proof is based on results from convex stochastic optimization and a mixing process which is specific to quantile estimation and requires only a small part of the...

Recently, using mixed data on Canadian housing, Parmeter, Henderson, and Kumbhakar (Journal of Applied Econometrics 2007; 22: 695-699) found that a nonparametric approach for estimating a hedonic house price function is superior to formerly suggested parametric and semiparametric specifications. We...

This paper considers the implementation of prior stochastic information on unknown outcomes of the response variables into estimation and forecasting of systems of linear regression equations in the context of time series, cross sections, pooled and longitudinal data models. The established...

This article completes and simplifies earlier results on the derivation of best linear, or affine, unbiased estimates in the general Gauss-Markov model with a singular dispersion matrix and additional restrictions under very general conditions. We provide the class of all linear representations...
