Research Abstract |
Hitomi studied the bias of the empirical likelihood estimators by a Monte Carlo simulation, where standard linear model setup is used as the DGP, also comparing with the ET and GMM estimators. Hitomi and Nishiyama (2005) investigated how a puzzling situation in terms of asymptotic variance occurs in semiparametric settings. It is normally the case that if nuisance parameters are estimated and plugged in, the asymptotic variance of the parameters of interest tends to be large, but there are cases the opposite is true. They provided a necessary and sufficient condition when it happens. Nishiyama and Robinson (2005) obtained a valid Edgeworth expansion of order two for the semiparametric averaged derivatives and checked the difference from the Bootstrap distribution. Liu and Nishiyama studied the performance of empirical likelihood estimators of diffusion processes with jumps by simulation. It is shown that EL performs better than the GMM for some parameters. Nishiyama, Liu and Sueishi (2005) compared EL, GMM estimators for semiparametric models which include nonparametric functionals in the moment condition. Morimune and Hoshino proposed to use Bootstrap when data includes heterogeneous observations. Tanizaki et.al. studied small sample power properties of Cressie-Read power divergence test.
