The efficiency of the second-order nonlinear least squares estimator and its extension
1Department of Statistics, Texas A&M University, College Station, TX 77843, USA.
Abstract:
We revisit the second-order nonlinear least square estimator proposed in Wang and Leblanc (Anne Inst Stat Math 60:883-900, 2008) and show that the estimator reaches the asymptotic optimality concerning the estimation variability. Using a fully semiparametric approach, we further modify and extend the method to the heteroscedastic error models and propose a semiparametric efficient estimator in this more general setting. Numerical results are provided to support the results and illustrate the finite sample performance of the proposed estimator.

Residuals and Least-Squares Property
If the observed data point lies above the line, the residual is positive, and the line underestimates the actual data value for y. If the observed data point lies below the line, the residual is negative, and the line overestimates the actual data value for y.
