Extracted from the Wikipedia article Errors-in-variables model.
Specification
This specification does not encompass all the existing errors-in-variables models. For example, in some of them, function may be non-parametric or semi-parametric. Other approaches model the relationship between and as distributional instead of functional; that is, they assume that conditionally on follows a certain (usually parametric) distribution.
