Kim, H. White). Maximum likelihood estimation with bounded symmetric errors (D. Miller, J. Eales, P. Preckel). Consistent quasi-maximum likelihood estimation with limited information (D. Miller, S.-H. Lee). An examination of the sign and volatility switching ARCH models under alternative distributional assumptions (M.F. Omran, F. Avram).
