In nonparametric instrumental variables estimation, the mapping that identifies the function of interest, g say, is … discontinuous and must be regularised (that is, modified) to make consistent estimation possible. The amount of modification is … in applications are not yet available. This paper presents such a method for use in series estimation, where the …

This paper investigates and extends the computationally attractive nonparametric random coefficients estimator of Fox, Kim, Ryan, and Bajari (2011). We show that their estimator is a special case of the nonnegative LASSO, explaining its sparse nature observed in many applications. Recognizing...

We propose an optimal-transport-based matching method to nonparametrically estimate linear models with independent latent variables. The method consists in generating pseudo-observations from the latent variables, so that the Euclidean distance between the model’s predictions and their matched...
