Abstract:
An Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithm in a maximum likelihood framework is developed to estimate finite mixtures of multivariate regression and simultaneous equation models with multiple endogenous variables. A dataset with cross-sectional observations for a diverse sample of businesses illustrates the semiparametric approach.
