Matt,

Ken Chay has code for a bunch of different semiparametric estimators for Tobit models, including SCLS. A zip file is at http://www.econ.berkeley.edu/~kenchay/ftp/binresp/programs/all.zip linked from his page at http://www.econ.berkeley.edu/~kenchay/ .

Although I'm guessing Matt knows this already, a nice description of alternative estimators is in

Semiparametric Censored Regression Models, with James Powell, Journal of Economic Perspectives, Fall 2001, 29-42.

Cheers,

Partha

Has anyone developed code for symmetrically trimmed least squares? I've been using CLAD, but it's a large data set with lots of regressors/dummy variables and is taking very long, so I'd like to try least squares.

Thanks,
Matt
