Two-stage least squares and indirect least squares algorithms for simultaneous equations models
This paper analyzes the solution of simultaneous equations models. Efficient algorithms for the two-stage least squares method using QR-decomposition are developed and studied. The reduction of the execution time when the structure of the matrices in each equation is exploited is analyzed theoretically and experimentally. An efficient algorithm for the

Two-stage least squares model averaging for instrumental variable models with exogenous variables
Instrumental variable (IV) methods are widely used to address unmeasured confoundings in structural equation models. In this paper, we focus on the settings where a possibly large number of instruments and a weak correlation between the instruments and ...

Two-Stage Least Squares with a Randomly Right-Censored Outcome [PDF]
This note develops a simple two-stage least squares (2SLS) procedure to estimate the causal effect of some endogenous regressors on a randomly right censored outcome in the linear model. The proposal replaces the usual ordinary least squares regressions of the standard 2SLS by weighted least squares regressions.
