The asymptotic properties of the estimator are studied given mild regularity conditions. Furthermore, we develop a Wald test statistic for the linear restriction on the parameters. A simulation study is conducted for the finite sample properties of our estimator. Finally, we give an empirical study of financial duration.展开更多

The results are applied to study many different types of M-estimators such as Huber's estimator, L^P-regression estimator, least squares estimator and least absolute deviation estimator.展开更多
