| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Nonparametric and semiparametric methods in which the properties peculiar to economic data sets are taken into account are improved and developed. The properties are as follows. First, many economic variables take only nonnegative values by definition. In addition, their distributions have many observations concentrated in the vicinity of the origin, whereas they also possess a long tail with sparse data. Second, it is often the case that a single data set does not contain all necessary variables for regression analyses in empirical microeconomics. For the former, asymmetric kernel functions are applied to a variety of estimation and testing problems. For the latter, methods of estimating regression models consistently in which the missing regressors are imputed nonparametrically from another sample are explored.

ノンパラメトリック推定・検定問題に対する非対称カーネル関数の利用可能性を拡大した。また、経済・ファイナンスにおける非対称カーネル関数の応用を取り扱う初の書籍も出版した。さらに、以前から実務家の間では二標本を接合したデータを用いて最小二乗推定を行う慣行が存在したが、一致性の確保、収束速度等統計的に重要な問題は見落とされていた。本研究ではこれらの問題に対する回答を与えた。
