โœฆ 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 ร€1 ; and Bartlett corrections can reduce the coverage errors to n ร€2 : 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.

This paper studies a semi-linear errors-in-variables model of the form Y i = x$ i ;+ g(T i )+e i , X i =x i +u i (1 i n). The estimators of parameters ;, \_ 2 and of the smooth function g are derived by using the nearest neighbor-generalized least square method. Under some weak conditions, it is sho
