Parametric mixture models are commonly used in applied work, especially empirical economics, where these models are often employed to learn for example about the proportions of various types in a given population. This paper examines the inference question on the proportions (mixing probability)...

This work proves that inferences on parameter vectors based on moment inequalities typically used in linear models with outcome censoring are sharp, i.e., they exhaust all the information in the data and the model. This holds for fixed and randomly censored linear models under median...

This paper analyzes the identification question in censored panel data models, where the censoring can depend on both observable and unobservable variables in arbitrary ways. Under some general conditions, we derive the tightest sets on the parameter of interest. These sets (which can be...

We study the problem of parameter inference in (possibly non-linear and non-smooth) econometric models when the data are measured with error. We allow for arbitrary correlation between the true variables and the measurement errors. To solve the identification problem, we require the existence of...

We study the problem of parameter inference in (possibly non-linear and non-smooth) econometric models when the data are measured with error. We allow for "arbitrary" correlation between the true variables and the measurement errors. To solve the identification problem, we require the existence...

We provide methods for inference on a finite dimensional parameter of interest, theta in Re^{d_theta}, in a semiparametric probability model when an infinite dimensional nuisance parameter, g, is present. We depart from the semiparametric literature in that we do not require that the pair...
