Proximal Statistics: Asymptotic Normality

Bristol Economics Discussion Papers from School of Economics, University of Bristol, UK

Abstract: This note considers the problem of constructing an asymptotically normal statistic for the value function of a convex stochastic minimization programme, which may have more than one minimizer. It introduces the proximal statistic using a recursive estimator of one of the minimizers. The use of this statistic is illustrated by extending an existing selection test for point-identifying parametric models to the set-identifying case
