Skew-Normality in Stochastic Frontier Analysis [PDF]
, 2004 Skewness is an intrinsic characteristic in Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA), where it is used as a measure of technical inefficiency. We discuss the use of skew normality in SFA. We consider stochastic frontier analysis in the common setting Normal + Truncated Normal with uncorrelated errors, as well as the case with correlated errors.

Panel Stochastic Frontier Analysis with Dependent Error Terms
International Econometric Review, 2021 In presence of panel data, technical efficiency is used to compare the performances of Decision-Making Units (DMUs). The novelty of this paper is the consideration of the dependence between the two error terms in the case of panel data and the introduction of time effect models in the Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA).

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,
