Title: WHY ARE SEMIPARAMETRIC MODELS USEFUL
Abstract: In this talk, I will use several real datasets to show why semiparametric models, in particular partial linear additive models and generalized partial linear additive models, are helpful and useful in economics and biomedical studies. I will emphasize the case that the numbers of nonlinear and linear covariates may diverge with the sample size.
