Title:On B-robust Instrumental Variable Estimation of the Linear Model with Panel Data
Author(s):WALDMANN, Robert; WAGENVOORT, Rien J.L.M.Date:2002Type of Publication:ArticleAbstract:The aim of this paper is to demonstrate how to acquire robust consistent estimates of the linear model when the fundamental orthogonality condition is not fulfilled. With this end in view, we develop two estimation procedures: ...
Title:On Sanctions and Signals: How formal and informal mechanisms produce compliance
Author(s):VAN DER WEELE, JoelDate:2009Type of Publication:ThesisSeries/Report no.:EUI PhD thesesAbstract:Why people comply with rules, why they contribute to public goods and why they behave prosocially in general is a fundamental question of social science.

Title:On the Computation and Efficiency of A Hbp-Gm Estimator Some Simulation Results
Author(s):HINLOOPEN, Jeroen; WAGENVOORT, Rien J.L.M.Date:1997Type of Publication:ArticleAbstract:We propose and test a specific correction factor which improves both the resampling and projection algorithm for approximating the minimum volume ellipsoid (MVE) estimator. Simulations show that a high-breakdown-point GM ...
