Deconvolution from two order statistics
Economic data are often contaminated by measurement errors and truncated by ranking. This paper shows that the classical measurement error model with independent and additive measurement errors is identified nonparametrically using only two order statistics of repeated measurements. The identification result confirms a hypothesis by Athey and Haile (2002) for a symmetric ascending auction model with unobserved heterogeneity. Extensions allow for heterogeneous measurement errors, broadening the applicability to additional empirical settings, including asymmetric auctions and wage offer models. We adapt an existing simulated sieve estimator and illustrate its performance in finite samples.

Estimation and Deconvolution of Second Order Cyclostationary Signals
This method solves the dual problem of blind deconvolution and estimation of the time waveform of noisy second-order cyclo-stationary (CS2) signals that traverse a Transfer Function (TF) en route to a sensor. We have pro…
Bayesian Deconvolution of Scanning Electron Microscopy Images Using Point-spread Function Estimation and Non-local Regularization
Microscopy is one of the most essential imaging techniques in life sciences. High-quality images are required in order to solve (potentially life-saving) biomedical research problems. Many microscopy techniques do not ac…
