Efficiency of Large Scale Manufacturing in Pakistan : A Production Frontier Approach [PDF]
This paper examines the efficiency of the large scale manufacturing sector of Pakistan using the stochastic production frontier approach. A stochastic production frontier is estimated for two periods1995-96 and 2000-01for 101 industries at the 5-digit ...

Neural Network Based Models for Efficiency Frontier Analysis: An Application to East Asian Economies' Growth Decomposition [PDF]
There has been a long tradition in business and economics to use frontier analysis to assess a production unit’s performance. The first attempt utilized the data envelopment analysis (DEA) which is based on a piecewise linear and mathematical programming
