Semiparametric Generalized Least Squares in the Multivariate Nonlinear Regression Model

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  18 October 2010

Abstract

Asymptotically efficient estimates for the multiple equations nonlinear regression model are obtained in the presence of heteroskedasticity of unknown form. The proposed estimator is a generalized least squares based on nonparametric nearest neighbor estimates of the conditional variance matrices. Some Monte Carlo experiments are reported.
