A weighted average limited information maximum likelihood estimator
Abstract In this article, a Stein-type weighted limited information maximum likelihood (LIML) estimator is proposed. It is based on a weighted average of the ordinary least squares (OLS) and LIML estimators, with weights inversely proportional to the Hausman test statistic. The asymptotic distribution of the proposed estimator is derived by means of local-to-exogenous asymptotic theory. In addition, the asymptotic risk of the Stein-type LIML estimator is calculated, and it is shown that the risk is strictly smaller than the risk of the LIML under certain conditions. A Monte Carlo simulation and an empirical application of a green patent dataset from Nordic countries are used to demonstrate the superiority of the Stein-type LIML estimator to the OLS, two-stage least squares, LIML and combined estimators when the number of instruments is large.
期刊介绍:
The journal Statistical Papers addresses itself to all persons and organizations that have to deal with statistical methods in their own field of work. It attempts to provide a forum for the presentation and critical assessment of statistical methods, in particular for the discussion of their methodological foundations as well as their potential applications. Methods that have broad applications will be preferred. However, special attention is given to those statistical methods which are relevant to the economic and social sciences. In addition to original research papers, readers will find survey articles, short notes, reports on statistical software, problem section, and book reviews.
