This paper considers inference in log-linearized dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) models with weakly (including un-) identified parameters. The framework allows for analysis using only part of the spectrum, say at the business cycle frequencies. First, we characterize weak...

Abstract Some linkages between kernel and penalty methods of density estimation are explored. It is recalled that classical Gaussian kernel density estimation can be viewed as the solution of the heat equation with initial condition given by data. We then observe that there is a direct...

This study develops cluster robust inference methods for panel quantile regression (QR) models with individual fixed effects, allowing for temporal correlation within each individual. The conventional QR standard errors can seriously underestimate the uncertainty of estimators and, therefore,...

We propose a quantile regression method which effectively handles missing values due to non-response. We illustrate the usefulness of our method by two examples. First example is the estimation of income inequality measures when a significant proportion of earnings are missing in survey data....
