Table 1.

Relative mean squared deviation error based on moments (MEM) and reconstruction (MER) estimates, ratios of two ME’s {moments (rME, MB) and reconstruction (rME, RB) estimates over binning estimates} for the three simulation set-ups: case (a) general unsynchronized binary response, case (b) general unsynchronized count response and case (c) unsynchronized binary response with diagonal support analogous to the CDS data. Median and 25% and 75% percentiles of the deviation measures are presented based 200 Monte Carlo runs/data sets.
