This paper reviews recent developments in nonparametric identi.cation of mea- surement error models and their applications in applied microeconomics, in particular, in empirical industrial organization and labor economics. Measurement error models describe mappings from a latent distribution to...

There are many economic parameters that depend on nonparametric first steps. Examples include games, dynamic discrete choice, average exact consumer surplus, and treatment effects. Often estimators of these parameters are asymptotically equivalent to a sample average of an object referred to as...

In econometrics some nonparametric instrumental regression models and nonparametric demand models with endogeneity lead to nonlinear integral equations with unknown integral kernels. We prove convergence rates of the risk for the iteratively regularized Newton method applied to these problems....

In this paper we consider nonparametric estimation of a structural equation model under full additivity constraint. We propose estimators for both the conditional mean and gradient which are consistent, asymptotically normal, oracle efficient and free from the curse of dimensionality. Monte...

This paper explores the link between exports and total factor productivity (TFP) for Brazilian manufacturing firms over the period 2000-2008, both under the assumption of an exogenous or an endogenous law of motion for productivity. The authors first obtain TFP estimates under each alternative...

This paper makes several important contributions to the literature about nonparametric instrumental variables (NPIV) estimation and inference on a structural function h<sub>0</sub> and its functionals. First, we derive sup-norm convergence rates for computationally simple sieve NPIV (series 2SLS)...

In this study, we explore the partial identification of non-separable models with continuous endogenous and binary instrumental variables. We show that structural function is partially identified when it is monotone or concave in an explanatory variable. D'Haultfoeuille and Fevrier (2015) and...

This paper develops inferential methods for a very general class of ill-posed models in econometrics encompassing the nonparametric instrumental regression, various functional regressions, and the density deconvolution. We focus on uniform confidence sets for the parameter of interest estimated...
