Estimation of the error density in a semiparametric transformation model

Abstract: Consider the semiparametric transformation model Lambdahetao(Y)=m(X)+epsilon, where hetao is an unknown finite dimensional parameter, the functions Lambdahetao and m are smooth, epsilon is independent of X, and esp(epsilon)=0. We propose a kernel-type estimator of the density of the error epsilon, and prove its asymptotic normality. The estimated errors, which lie at the basis of this estimator, are obtained from a profile likelihood estimator of hetao and a nonparametric kernel estimator of m. The practical performance of the proposed density estimator is evaluated in a simulation study.
