Approximations to distribution of median in stratified samples
Lietuvos Matematikos Rinkinys, 2011 We consider an Edgeworth type approximation to the distribution function of sample median in the case of stratified samples drawn without replacement. We give explicit expression of this approximation, and also its empirical version based on bootstrap ...

Joint Estimation and Bandwidth Selection in Partially Parametric Models
Journal of Applied Econometrics, Volume 41, Issue 3, Page 227-239, April/May 2026.ABSTRACT We propose a single‐step approach to estimating a model with both a known nonlinear parametric component and an unknown nonparametric component. We study the large sample behavior of a simultaneous optimization routine that estimates both the parameter vector of the parametric component and the bandwidth vector used to smooth the unknown ...

Price Indices Rekindled, 1970s–1990s: Theory and Practice at Cross Purposes?
Journal of Economic Surveys, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 898-914, April 2026.ABSTRACT This paper revisits the discussions on price indices during a period marked by theoretical advancements and practical challenges in measuring inflation. Index‐number theorists sought to improve accuracy, yet national statistical offices largely maintained established practices due to concerns over data availability, stability, and public trust.

An Analogue to the Edgeworth–Esseen Expansion
Journal of Mathematical Analysis and Applications, 1998 Let \(f\) be a bounded, measurable function on \([-\pi, \pi]\) and let \((a_{n\nu}: \nu=0,\pm 1,\pm 2,\dots)\) be the Fourier coefficients of the powers \(f^n\) for \(n= 1,2,\dots\)\ .

On Edgeworth Expansions in Generalized Urn Models [PDF]
Journal of Theoretical Probability, 2012 The random vector of frequencies in a generalized urn model is viewed as conditionally independent random variables, given their sum. Such a representation is exploited to derive Edgeworth expansions for a sum of functions of such frequencies. Applying these results to urn models such as with- and without-replacement sampling schemes as well as the ...

Bootstrap Tests for Nonlinear Simplex Models
Stat, Volume 15, Issue 1, March 2026.ABSTRACT We provide important contributions regarding hypothesis tests on the class of nonlinear simplex regression models. The performance of traditional asymptotic tests based on the maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) tends to exhibit considerable size distortions in finite samples.

Bootstrap and Higher-Order Expansion Validity When Instruments May Be Weak [PDF]
It is well-known that size-adjustments based on Edgeworth expansions for the t-statistic perform poorly when instruments are weakly correlated with the endogenous explanatory variable.

RELIABILITY ALLOCATION OF CNC LATHE BASED ON EDGEWORTH SERIES METHOD AND DATE ENVELOPMENT ANALYSIS
Jixie qiangdu, 2016 The reliability of CNC lathe was allocated based on the failure information of CNC lathe. It used Edgeworth series method to expand the fault data into standard normal variable expansion to obtained the reliability.

Stable Price Dispersion under Heterogeneous Buyer Consideration
The RAND Journal of Economics, Volume 57, Issue 1, Page 103-121, Spring 2026.ABSTRACT We study the pricing of homogeneous products sold to customers who consider different sets of suppliers. We identify prices that are stable in the sense that no firm wishes to undercut a rival or to raise its price when rivals are able to respond by offering special deals.

Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, Volume 51, Issue 1, March 2026.Abstract This article contributes empirical and conceptual insights to emerging debates on the regulation of short‐term rentals (STRs) by delving into the socio‐legal foundations of this housing market segment. Drawing on a qualitative study conducted between September 2022 and June 2023 focused on the governance of for‐profit temporary housing (i.e ...
