Semiparametric Optimal Estimation With Nonignorable Nonresponse Data [PDF]
When the response mechanism is believed to be not missing at random (NMAR), a valid analysis requires stronger assumptions on the response mechanism than standard statistical methods would otherwise require.

Parametric Time‐Variation in the Unconditional Volatility: Estimation and Inference
ABSTRACT We propose modeling time‐variation in the unconditional volatility by augmenting the standard GARCH model by a deterministic time‐varying intercept. The model, called the additive time‐varying (ATV‐)GARCH model, can be interpreted as a reduced form of a model including covariates and can be derived from a multiplicative decomposition of ...

The Asymptotic Variance of Semiparametric Estimators [PDF]
Summary: The purpose of this paper is the presentation of a general formula for the asymptotic variance of a semiparametric estimator. A particularly important feature of this formula is a way of accounting for the presence of nonparametric estimates of nuisance functions.

Partial Time‐Varying Regression Modelling Under General Heterogeneity
ABSTRACT This paper studies a semiparametric time‐varying regression model in which a subset of regressors is associated with fixed parameters, while the remaining regressors have parameters that evolve smoothly over time. We propose a closed‐form semiparametric Frisch‐Waugh‐Lovell estimator for the fixed parameters, and a non‐parametric kernel type ...

Computing nonparametric functional estimates in semiparametric problems. [PDF]
We offer a set of FORTRAN routines which compute nonparametric estimates of a number of functionals. The routines are primarily intended to be used in the estimation of semiparametric models.

About tests of the “simplifying” assumption for conditional copulas
We discuss the so-called “simplifying assumption” of conditional copulas in a general framework. We introduce several tests of the latter assumption for non- and semiparametric copula models.

Exploring Spatial Patterns in Inefficiency Using a Stationary Gaussian Random Field
ABSTRACT This article presents a semiparametric stochastic frontier model that accounts for unobserved spatial heterogeneity in inefficiency by incorporating a stationary Gaussian random field based on geographic coordinates into the inefficiency scaling function. This approach captures spatial patterns in inefficiency at a fine scale.

Semiparametric Estimation with Generated Covariates [PDF]
In this paper, we study a general class of semiparametric optimization estimators of a vector-valued parameter. The criterion function depends on two types of infinite-dimensional nuisance parameters: a conditional expectation function that has been ...

Same‐Sex Marriage in Times of Political Uncertainty: Evidence from Brazil
Abstract This research note examines how political polarization and the fragility of same‐sex marriage rights in Brazil shaped marriage patterns over the past decade. Using civil registry data from 2013 to 2023, we focus on presidential election periods as moments of political uncertainty.
