In this paper, we investigate semiparametric threshold regression models with endogenous threshold variables based on a nonparametric control function approach. Using a series approximation we propose a two-step estimation method for the threshold parameter. For the regression coefficients, we...

We consider shape constrained kernel-based probability density function (PDF) and probability mass function (PMF) estimation. Our approach is of widespread potential applicability and includes, separately or simultaneously, constraints on the PDF (PMF) function itself, its integral (sum), and...

This paper considers a semiparametric threshold regression model with two threshold variables,extending Chen et al. (2012) and Kourtellos et al. (2021). The proposed model allows the endogeneity for both threshold variables and the slope regressors. Under the diminishing thresholdeffects...

This paper considers a classical linear simultaneous equations model with random coefficients on the endogenous variables. Simultaneous equations models are used to study social interactions, strategic interactions between firms, and market equilibrium. Random coefficient models allow for...
