We derive a property of real sequences which can be used to provide a natural sufficient condition for the consistency of the least squares estimators of slope and intercept for a simple linear regression models.

This paper studies a linear regression model, whose errors are functional coefficient autoregressive processes. Firstly, the quasi-maximum likelihood (QML) estimators of some unknown parameters are given. Secondly, under general conditions, the asymptotic properties (existence, consistency, and asymptotic distributions) of the QML estimators are investigated. These results extend those of Maller (2003), White (1959), Brockwell and Davis (1987), and so on. Lastly, the validity and feasibility of the method are illuminated by a simulation example and a real example.

We look at fitting regression models using data from stratified cluster samples when the strata may depend in some way on the observed responses within clusters. One important subclass of examples is that of family studies in genetic epidemiology, where the probability of selecting a family into the study depends on the incidence of disease within the family. We develop the survey-weighted estimating equation approach for this problem, with particular emphasis on the estimation of superpopulation parameters. Full maximum likelihood for this class of problems involves modelling the population distribution of the covariates which is simply not feasible when there are a large number of potential covariates. We discuss efficient semiparametric maximum likelihood methods in which the covariate distribution is left completely unspecified. We further discuss the relative efficiencies of these two approaches.
