TL;DR: This paper investigates the large sample properties of generalized method of moments (GMM) estimators, a class of estimators that encompasses various standard econometric estimators, and demonstrates their strong consistency and asymptotic normality under certain conditions.
Abstract: IN THIS PAPER we study the large sample properties of a class of generalized method of moments (GMM) estimators which subsumes many standard econometric estimators. To motivate this class, consider an econometric model whose parameter vector we wish to estimate. The model implies a family of orthogonality conditions that embed any economic theoretical restrictions that we wish to impose or test. For example, assumptions that certain equations define projections or that particular variables are predetermined give rise to orthogonality conditions in which expected cross products of unobservable disturbances and functions of observable variables are equated to zero. Heuristically, identification requires at least as many orthogonality conditions as there are coordinates in the parameter vector to be estimated. The unobservable disturbances in the orthogonality conditions can be replaced by an equivalent expression involving the true parameter vector and the observed variables. Using the method of moments, sample estimates of the expected cross products can be computed for any element in an admissible parameter space. A GMM estimator of the true parameter vector is obtained by finding the element of the parameter space that sets linear combinations of the sample cross products as close to zero as possible. In studying strong consistency of GMM estimators, we show how to construct a class of criterion functions with minimizers that converge almost surely to the true parameter vector. The resulting estimators have the interpretation of making the sample versions of the population orthogonality conditions as close as possible to zero according to some metric or measure of distance. We use the metric to index the alternative estimators. This class of estimators includes the nonlinear instrumental variables estimators considered by, among others, Amemiya [1, 2], Jorgenson and Laffont [24], and Gallant [11].2 There the

TL;DR: This new text is a substantially enlarged and revised version of Professor Chen's earlier book on linear systems, which is a balanced and comprehensive treatment of all the useful concepts from both state space and frequency domain approaches for the analysis and design of linear control systems.
TL;DR: The class of generalized additive models is introduced, which replaces the linear form E fjXj by a sum of smooth functions E sj(Xj), and has the advantage of being completely auto- matic, i.e., no "detective work" is needed on the part of the statistician.
Abstract: Likelihood-based regression models such as the normal linear regression model and the linear logistic model, assume a linear (or some other parametric) form for the covariates $X_1, X_2, \cdots, X_p$. We introduce the class of generalized additive models which replaces the linear form $\sum \beta_jX_j$ by a sum of smooth functions $\sum s_j(X_j)$. The $s_j(\cdot)$'s are unspecified functions that are estimated using a scatterplot smoother, in an iterative procedure we call the local scoring algorithm. The technique is applicable to any likelihood-based regression model: the class of generalized linear models contains many of these. In this class the linear predictor $\eta = \Sigma \beta_jX_j$ is replaced by the additive predictor $\Sigma s_j(X_j)$; hence, the name generalized additive models. We illustrate the technique with binary response and survival data. In both cases, the method proves to be useful in uncovering nonlinear covariate effects. It has the advantage of being completely automatic, i.e., no "detective work" is needed on the part of the statistician. As a theoretical underpinning, the technique is viewed as an empirical method of maximizing the expected log likelihood, or equivalently, of minimizing the Kullback-Leibler distance to the true model.
