Technical Efficiency, Farm Size and Tropical Deforestation in the Brazilian Amazonian Forest [PDF]
This paper analyses the impact of farm productivity as well as farm size on deforestation in Brazil. A two step econometric approach is adopted. A bootstrapped translog stochastic frontier that is a posteriori checked for functional consistency is used ...

A stochastic production frontier model with a translog specification using the generalized maximum entropy estimator [PDF]
In this paper, an empirical application of the generalized maximum entropy estimator in a stochastic production frontier model with a translog specification is discussed to investigate technical efficiency in a wine region of Portugal.

Efficiency of Hospitals in the Czech Republic [PDF]
The paper estimates cost efficiency of 99 general hospitals in the Czech Republic during 2001-2008 using Stochastic Frontier Analysis. We estimate a baseline model and also a model accounting for various inefficiency determinants.

Identification of Segments of French Urban Public Transport with a Latent Class Frontier Model [PDF]
This paper analyses technical efficiency of French urban public transport from 1995 to 2002 with unbalanced panel data. The latent class frontier model is used allowing the identification of different segments in the production frontier.

Technical Efficiency of the Danish Trawl fleet: Are the Industrial Vessels Better than Others? [PDF]
Technical efficiency in the Danish trawl fishery in the North Sea is estimated for 1997 and 1998 by a stochastic production frontier model. This model allows noise when the frontier and the technical efficiency is found, which for fisheries is a ...
