Regressions with negative residuals 3 Stochastic Frontiers: Finding inefficiency. A formal model. Testing for inefficiency. Estimating technical (in)efficiency. Semiparametric modeling. Nonparametric model. Data Envelopment Analysis 4 Production and Cost: Production and cost duality. Cost functions. Allocative inefficiency. The Greene problem. 5 Heterogeneity: Environmental factors. Partials. Two step estimation. Latent classes. Heteroscedasticity and scaling. Sample selection. 6 Model Extensions: Functional forms and distributions. Discrete outcomes. Bayesian analysis. 7 Panel Data. Fixed and random effects. True FE and RE models. Modeling heterogeneity. Distance function. TFP growth and DEA 8 Applications: Summary and closing remarks.
