Bayesian stochastic frontier analysis using WinBUGS [PDF]
Journal of Productivity Analysis, 2007 Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods have become a ubiquitous tool in Bayesian analysis. This paper implements MCMC methods for Bayesian analysis of stochastic frontier models using the WinBUGS package, a freely available software. General code for cross-sectional and panel data are presented and various ways of summarizing posterior inference are ...

Stochastic panel frontiers: A semiparametric approach [PDF]
Journal of Econometrics, 1998 This paper complements the results of Hausman and Taylor (1981) and Cornwell, Schmidt and Sickles (1990) and generalizes Park and Simar (1994) by examining the semiparametric efficient estimation of panel models in which the random effects and the regressors have certain patterns of correlation.

Microfoundations for stochastic frontiers [PDF]
European Journal of Operational Research, 2017 The purpose of the paper is to propose microfoundations for stochastic frontier models. Previous work shows that a simple Bayesian learning model supports gamma distributions for technical inefficiency in stochastic frontier models. The conclusion depends on how the problem is formulated and what assumptions are made about the sampling process and the ...

Spectrally Tunable 2D Material‐Based Infrared Photodetectors for Intelligent Optoelectronics
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Intelligent optoelectronics through spectral engineering of 2D material‐based infrared photodetectors. Abstract The evolution of intelligent optoelectronic systems is driven by artificial intelligence (AI). However, their practical realization hinges on the ability to dynamically capture and process optical signals across a broad infrared (IR) spectrum.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A new class of living liquid metal composites is introduced, embedding Bacillus subtilis endospores into eutectic gallium–indium (EGaIn). The spores enhance droplet coalescence, strengthen interfacial conductivity, and provide on‐demand electrogenic functionality after germination. The composites exhibit high conductivity, self‐healing, patternability,

High Entropy Wide‐Bandgap Borates with Broadband Luminescence and Large Nonlinear Optical properties
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.High‐entropy rare‐earth borates exhibit excellent nonlinear optical and broadband luminescence properties arising from multi‐component doping, chemical disorder, increased configurational entropy, and increased lattice and electronic anharmonicity. This formulation enabled us to obtain a large, environmentally stable single crystal with 3X higher laser‐

Comparative Analysis of Stochastic Frontier Partially non-parametric and Stochastic Frontier Parametric Methods Case Study: Measuring Cost Efficiency in Wheat Production in Iran [PDF]
International Journal of Agricultural Management and Development, 2013 Most research on performance evaluation of agriculturalcrops in Iran analyzes technical efficiency with estimationof stochastic production function. In this paper in spite of pastresearch we survey cost efficiency with panel data.
