Recent Advances in the Panel Stochastic Frontier Models: Heterogeneity, Endogeneity and Dependence
This paper primarily reviews the panel stochastic frontier (SF) model in which the composite error term [Formula: see text] has four components, i.e. [Formula: see text] where [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are the persistent and transient ...

Determinants of the Inefficiency of Public Hospitals in Cameroon
The purpose of this paper was to assess the determinants of the inefficiency of public hospitals in Cameroon. The methods employed in the study involved a two-stage analysis technique whereby Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) was applied using the traditional inputs and outputs with data from the National Institute of Statistics (NIS) of Cameroon.
