This paper proposes the analysis of panel data whose dynamic structure is heterogeneous across individuals. Our aim is to estimate the cross-sectional distributions and/or some distributional features of the heterogeneous mean and autocovariances. We do not assume any specific model for the...

This study considers the estimation of spatial autoregressive models with censored dependent variables, where the spatial autocorrelation exists within the uncensored latent dependent variables. The estimator proposed in this paper is semiparametric, in the sense that the error distribution is...

We empirically assess the treatment effects of a place-based policy in Japan and propose a socially desirable and practically feasible treatment assignment rule for the program. To account for heterogeneity of treatment effects, we estimate the conditional average treatment effect for each...

Effective and efficient planning and development of residential environments require clarifying the nature of residential preferences. In reality, residential preferences are heterogeneous, so the standard econometric models that assume only one type of preference are not optimal. In this study,...
