Computing Generalized Method of Moments and Generalized Empirical Likelihood with R

Author

  • Chaussé, Pierre

Abstract

This paper shows how to estimate models by the generalized method of moments and the generalized empirical likelihood using the R package gmm. A brief discussion is offered on the theoretical aspects of both methods and the functionality of the package is presented through several examples in economics and finance.
