6. Bootstrap inference in time series econometrics
Abstract : This dissertation contains five essays in the field of time series econometrics. The main issue discussed is the lack of coherence between small sample and asymptotic inference. Frequently, in modern econometrics distributional results are strictly only valid for a hypothetical infinite sample. READ MORE

7. Estimators of semiparametric truncated and censored regression models
Abstract : This thesis contributes in several ways to the existing knowledge on estimation of truncated, censored, and left truncated right censored (LTRC) regression models. Three new semiparametric estimators are proposed, allowing for asymmetric error distributions. READ MORE

8. On the Treatment of Flow in Traffic Safety Analysis, - a non-parametric approach applied on vulnerable road users
Abstract : The treatment of flow in the area of traffic safety has a long tradition. The influence flow has on the number of accidents is, however, often considered so obvious that it tends to be trivial. In this thesis I can show that the relation between flow and accidents holds interesting information. READ MORE

9. Estimation and Inference for Quantile Regression of Longitudinal Data : With Applications in Biostatistics
Abstract : This thesis consists of four papers dealing with estimation and inference for quantile regression of longitudinal data, with an emphasis on nonlinear models.The first paper extends the idea of quantile regression estimation from the case of cross-sectional data with independent errors to the case of linear or nonlinear longitudinal data with dependent errors, using a weighted estimator.
