Monte Carlo experiments on bootstrap DEA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Since the introduction of bootstrap DEA there is a growing literature on applications which use this method, mainly for hypothesis testing. It is therefore important to establish the consistency and evaluate the performance of bootstrap DEA.

Subsampling (weighted smooth) empirical copula processes

open access: yes, 2019
A key tool to carry out inference on the unknown copula when modeling a continuous multivariate distribution is a nonparametric estimator known as the empirical copula.

THE TWO-SAMPLE PROBLEM WITH REGRESSION ERRORS: AN EMPIRICAL PROCESS APPROACH [PDF]

open access: yes
We describe how to test the null hypothesis that errors from two parametrically specified regression models have the same distribution versus a general alternative.

Conditional Independence Restrictions: Testing and Estimation [PDF]

open access: yes
We propose a nonparametric empirical distribution function based test of an hypothesis of conditional independence between variables of interest. This hypothesis is of interest both for model specification purposes, parametric and semiparametric, and for

Nonparametric estimation of mean-squared prediction error in nested-error regression models

open access: yes, 2005
Nested-error regression models are widely used for analyzing clustered data. For example, they are often applied to two-stage sample surveys, and in biology and econometrics.
