We study the problem of nonparametric regression when the regressor is endogenous, which is an important nonparametric instrumental variables (NPIV) regression in econometrics and a difficult ill-posed inverse problem with unknown operator in statistics. We first establish a general upper bound...

The empirical literature on program evaluation limits its scope almost exclusively to models where treatment effects are homogenous for observationally identical individuals. This paper considers a treatment effect model in which treatment effects may be heterogeneous, even among observationally...

This article introduces a new class of instrumental variable (IV) estimators of causal treatment effects for linear and nonlinear models with covariates. The rationale for focusing on nonlinear models is to improve the approximation to the causal response function of interest. For example, if...
