The focus of the paper is the nonparametric estimation of an instrumental regression function f defined by conditional moment restrictions stemming from a structural econometric model: E [Y - f (Z) | W] = 0, and involving endogenous variables Y and Z and instruments W. The function f is the...

This paper makes several important contributions to the literature about non- parametric instrumental variables (NPIV ) estimation and inference on a structural function h 0 and functionals of h 0 .First,wederivesup-normconvergence rates for computationally simple sieve NPIV (series two-stage...
