In this paper a range of information theoretic distance measures, based on Cressie-Read divergence, are combined with mean-zero estimating equations to provide an efficient basis for semi parametric estimation and testing. Asymptotic properties of the resulting semi parametric estimators are demonstrated and issues of implementation are considered.
