A  curse of dimensionality  arises when using the Continuum-GMM procedure to estimate large dimensional models. Two solutions are proposed, both of which convert the high dimensional model into a continuum of reduced information sets. Under certain regularity conditions, each reduced...

The method of moments proposed by Carrasco and Florens (2000) permits to fully exploit the information contained in the characteristic function and yields an estimator which is asymptotically as efficient as the maximum likelihood estimator. However, this estimation procedure depends on a...

This paper investigates statistical properties of the local generalized method of moments (LGMM) estimator for some time series models defined by conditional moment restrictions. First, we consider Markov processes with possible conditional heteroskedasticity of unknown forms and establish the...

Most papers on high-dimensional statistics are based on the assumption that none of the regressors are correlated with the regression error, namely, they are exogenous. Yet, endogeneity arises easily in high-dimensional regression due to a large pool of regressors and this causes the...
