โฆ Synopsis
This paper proposes a constrained empirical likelihood confidence region for a parameter b 0 in the linear errors-in-variables model:
; which is constructed by combining the score function corresponding to the squared orthogonal distance with a constrained region of b 0 : It is shown that the coverage error of the confidence region is of order n ร1 ; and Bartlett corrections can reduce the coverage errors to n ร2 : An empirical Bartlett correction is given for practical implementation. Simulations show that the proposed confidence region has satisfactory coverage not only for large samples, but also for small to medium samples.
