Identifiability of the Stochastic Frontier Models [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper examines the identifiability of the standard single-equation stochastic frontier models with uncorrelated and correlated error components giving, inter alia, mathematical content to the notion of “near-identifiability” of a statistical model ...

The role of technology and institutions for growth: Danish creameries in the late nineteenth century [PDF]

open access: yes
We consider the relative contributions of changing technology and institutions for economic growth through the investigation of a natural experiment in history: the almost simultaneous introduction of the automatic cream separator and the cooperative ...

North Dakota corn efficiency frontier: Stochastic frontier analysis

open access: yesCrop, Forage & Turfgrass Management
AbstractAccording to climate studies in North Dakota, the state's crop‐growing season has been extended. In addition, many studies have shown technological advances in crop production. However, the state has not addressed how crop yield has been affected by weather changes.

Biomarker‐Agnostic Detection of Ovarian Cancer from Blood Plasma Using a Machine Learning‐Driven Electronic Nose

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study introduces a biomarker‐agnostic diagnostic strategy for ovarian cancer, utilizing a machine learning‐enhanced electronic nose to analyze volatile organic compound signatures from blood plasma. By overcoming the dependence on specific biomarkers, this approach enables accurate detection, staging, and cancer type differentiation, offering a ...

Technology shape, distance to frontier, or frontier shift? Modeling the determinants of TFP growth [PDF]

open access: yes
We investigate the determinants of TFP growth of Italian manufacturing firms. Using stochastic frontier techniques, we consider three approaches to take into account the influence of external factors, i.e., the determinants of growth.

Economics of land‐based carbon mitigation

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Agricultural land holds tremendous potential to contribute to net zero greenhouse gas emission goals by providing low carbon renewable energy to displace fossil fuels and by serving as a sink for sequestering carbon in the soil with climate‐smart practices. This potential is, however, far from being realized.
