The efficient moment estimation of the probit model with an endogenous continuous regressor [PDF]
We propose an efficient moment estimator for the probit model with a continuous endogenous regressor. The estimation can be readily implemented using a standard statistical package that can estimate a non-linear system two-stage least squares ...

Lattice dynamical wavelet neural networks implemented using particle swarm optimisation for spatio-temporal system identification [PDF]
Starting from the basic concept of coupled map lattices, a new family of adaptive wavelet neural networks, called lattice dynamical wavelet neural networks (LDWNN), is introduced for spatiotemporal system identification, by combining an efficient wavelet
