Empirical likelihood methods for asymptotically efficient estimation of models based on conditional or unconditional moment restrictions; see Kitamura, Tripathi & Ahn (2004) <doi:10.1111/j.1468-0262.2004.00550.x> and Owen (2013) <doi:10.1002/cjs.11183>. Kernel-based non-parametric methods for density/regression estimation and numerical routines for empirical likelihood maximisation are implemented in 'Rcpp' for speed.
