Growth accounting in items of turbulence and death: efficiency, technology, capital accumulation and human capital 1929-1950

Enflo, Kerstin; Baten, Jörg - Department of Economics and Business, Universitat … - 2007

We employ a non-parametrical approach to growth accounting (Data Envelopment Analysis, DEA) to disentangle the … proximate sources of labour productivity growth in 41 nations between 1929 and 1950 by decomposing productivity growth into four … capital accumulation. We show that efficiency catch-up generally explains productivity growth, whereas technological change …

Asymptotic robustness in multi-sample analysis of multivariate linear relations

Satorra, Albert - Department of Economics and Business, Universitat … - 1995

Standard methods for the analysis of linear latent variable models often rely on the assumption that the vector of observed variables is normally distributed. This normality assumption (NA) plays a crucial role in assessing optimality of estimates, in computing standard errors, and in designing...

Scaled and adjusted restricted tests in multi-sample analysis of moment structures

Satorra, Albert - Department of Economics and Business, Universitat … - 1999

We extend to score, Wald and difference test statistics the scaled and adjusted corrections to goodness-of-fit test statistics developed in Satorra and Bentler (1988a,b). The theory is framed in the general context of multisample analysis of moment structures, under general conditions on the...

Fusion of data sets in multivariate linear regression with errors-in-variables

Satorra, Albert - Department of Economics and Business, Universitat … - 1996

We consider the application of normal theory methods to the estimation and testing of a general type of multivariate regression models with errors--in--variables, in the case where various data sets are merged into a single analysis and the observable variables deviate possibly from normality....

A scaled difference chi-square test statistic for moment structure analysis

Satorra, Albert; Bentler, Peter M. - Department of Economics and Business, Universitat … - 1999

A family of scaling corrections aimed to improve the chi-square approximation of goodness-of-fit test statistics in small samples, large models, and nonnormal data was proposed in Satorra and Bentler (1994). For structural equations models, Satorra-Bentler's (SB) scaling corrections are...

Financial integration, productivity and capital accumulation

Bonfiglioli, Alessandra - Department of Economics and Business, Universitat … - 2006

financial integration on the two main determinants of economic performance: productivity (TFP)and investments. I provide … has a positive direct effect on productivity, while it spurs capital accumulation only with some delay and indirectly …, since capital follows the rise in productivity. I control for indirect effects of financial globalization through banking …

On the tractability of the piecewise-linear approximation for general discrete-choice network revenue management

Kunnumkal, Sumit; Talluri, Kalyan - Department of Economics and Business, Universitat … - 2014

The choice network revenue management (RM) model incorporates customer purchase behavior as customers purchasing products with certain probabilities that are a function of the offered assortment of products, and is the appropriate model for airline and hotel network revenue management, dynamic...

A new compact linear programming formulation for choice network revenue management

Kunnumkal, Sumit; Talluri, Kalyan - Department of Economics and Business, Universitat … - 2012

The choice network revenue management model incorporates customer purchase behavior as a function of the offered products, and is the appropriate model for airline and hotel network revenue management, dynamic sales of bundles, and dynamic assortment optimization. The optimization problem is a...

On bounds for network revenue management

Talluri, Kalyan - Department of Economics and Business, Universitat … - 2008

The Network Revenue Management problem can be formulated as a stochastic dynamic programming problem (DP or the\optimal" solution V *) whose exact solution is computationally intractable. Consequently, a number of heuristics have been proposed in the literature, the most popular of which are the...

A multi-objective model for a multi-period distribution management problem

Ribeiro, Rita; Ramalhinho-Lourenço, Helena - Department of Economics and Business, Universitat … - 2001

The problems arising in commercial distribution are complex and involve several players and decision levels. One important decision is related with the design of the routes to distribute the products, in an efficient and inexpensive way. This article deals with a complex vehicle routing problem...
