Empirical phi star-Divergence Minimizers for Hadamard Differentiable Functionals

We study some extensions of the empirical likelihood method, when the Kullback distance is replaced by some general convex divergence or phi-discrepancy. We show that this generalized empirical likelihood method is asymptotically valid for general Hadamard differentiable functionals.
