This paper investigates the asymptotic properties of the ordinary least squares (OLS) estimator of structural parameters in a stylised macroeconomic model in which agents are boundedly rational and use an adaptive learning rule to form expectations of the endogenous variable. In particular, when...

This paper provides an example of a linear regression model with predetermined stochastic regressors for which the sufficient condition for strong consistency of the ordinary least squares estimator by Lai & Wei (1982, Annals of Statistics) is not met. Nevertheless, the estimator is strongly...

Censored median regression models have been shown to be useful for analyzing a variety of censored survival data with the robustness property. We study sparse estimation and inference of censored median regression. The new method minimizes an inverse censoring probability weighted least absolute...

Air toxic emission factor data often contain one or more censored points below a single or multiple detection limits. Such data sets are referred to as "censored." Conventional methods used to deal with censored data sets include removing non-detects, or replacing the censored points with zero,...
