efficiency is in place. Here we address the question of technical efficiency with respect to university’s size. The crucial … concept in this analysis is conditional efficiency and the ratio of size-conditional to unconditional efficiency measures. In … particular we take use of robust order-m efficiency scores presented in Cazals, Florens and Simar (2002) and generalized in …

In productivity and efficiency analysis, the technical efficiency of a production unit is measured through its distance … viewed as additive (rather than multiplicative) measures efficiency. Directional distance functions are not restricted to non …

estimates. A very simple example is given to illustrate the statistical issues underlying nonparametric efficiency measurement …

Efficiency scores of firms are measured by their distance to an estimated production frontier. The economic literature … efficiency estimators and estimation of confidence intervals for the efficiency measures. This paper summarizes the results which …
