Abstract: In this paper, quantile regression models are suggested as an alternative description of a production technology. The quantile of continuous order defines the production profile and the quantile-based individual technical efficiency relative to the quantile… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract In this paper we propose a zero-inefficiency stochastic frontier model with a simple semiparametric approach using panel data. We model the frontier with a smooth coefficient function and specify a nonzero conditional probability for… read more here.
