We study the influence of a bandwidth parameter in inference with conditional estimating equations. In that aim, we propose a new class of smooth minimum distance estimators and we develop a theory that focuses on uniformity in bandwidth. We establish a vn-asymptotic representation of our...

We develop a novel approach to build checks of parametric regression models when many regressors are present, based on a class of sufficiently rich semiparametric alternatives, namely single-index models. We propose an omnibus test based on the kernel method that performs against a sequence of...

To study the influence of a bandwidth parameter in inference with conditional moments, we propose a new class of estimators and establish an asymptotic representation of our estimator as a process indexed by a bandwidth, which can vary within a wide range including bandwidths independent of the...
