Modeling Spatial Interaction in Stochastic Frontier Analysis [PDF]
Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, 2021 We compare farm level efficiency rankings derived from non-spatial and a variety of spatial model specifications that account for unobserved heterogeneity in both the production and the efficiency sides of the stochastic frontier model in an empirical ...

Stochastic Frontier Analysis using Stata [PDF]
The Stata Journal: Promoting communications on statistics and Stata, 2012 This article describes sfcross and sfpanel, two new Stata commands for the estimation of cross-sectional and panel-data stochastic frontier models. sfcross extends the capabilities of the frontier command by including additional models (Greene, 2003, Journal of Productivity Analysis 19: 179–190; Wang, 2002, Journal of Productivity Analysis 18: 241–253)

Quantile Methods for Stochastic Frontier Analysis
Foundations and Trends® in Econometrics, 2022 Summary: Quantile regression has become one of the standard tools of econometrics. We examine its compatibility with the special goals of stochastic frontier analysis. We document several conflicts between quantile regression and stochastic frontier analysis.
