(Frisch-Waugh-Lovell)' on the estimation of regression models by row
Clarke, Damian; Paris Torres, Nicolás; … - 2023
We demonstrate that regression models can be estimated by working independently in a row-wise fashion. We document a … understanding the mechanics of many common regression models. These procedures can be used to speed up the computation of estimates … computed via OLS, IV, Ridge regression, LASSO, Elastic Net, and Non-linear models including probit and logit, with all common …

Broadband diffusion and firm performance in rural areas : quasi-experimental evidence
Canzian, Giulia; Poy, Samuele; Schüller, Simone - 2015
This article analyzes the causal impact of advanced broadband accessibility on firm performance. We exploit a unique local policy intervention of a staged broadband infrastructure installation across rural municipalities in the Province of Trento (Italy), generating a source of exogenous...

Does college location affect the location choice of new college graduates? : evidence from China
Huang, Mian; Xing, Chunbing; Xiaoyong, Cui - 2019
Based on a representative survey of new college graduates in China, we examine the impact of college location on their location choice upon graduation. We use a discrete choice model and the BLP method to solve the endogeneity problem of housing cost and to estimate the unobservable location...
