Suppose we impose the constraint that E [ w i ] = g ( ) ,

Question:

Suppose we impose the constraint that E[wi]=g(θ), where dim[w]>dim[θ].

(b) Obtain the objective function for the minimum distance estimator (see Section 6.7) with π=E[wi] and π^=w¯.

(c) Show that MD and GMM are equivalent in this example.
