European competitiveness : a semi-parametric stochastic metafrontier analysis at the firm level
Dumont, Michel; Merlevede, Bruno; Rayp, Glenn; … - 2014
In this paper a semiparametric stochastic metafrontier approach is used to obtain insight into firmlevel competitiveness in Europe. We differ from standard TFP studies at the firm level as we simultaneously allow for inefficiency, noise and do not impose a functional form on the input-output...

A multivariate unobserved components model to estimate potential output in the euro area : a production function based approach
Tóth, Máté - 2021
This paper builds an unobserved components model that combines a multivariate filter approach with a Cobb-Douglas production function. This combination allows potential output estimates to incorporate more economic structure than the traditional production function approach, while retaining the...

European Regional Efficiency and Geographical Externalities : A Spatial Nonparametric Frontier Analysis
Ramajo, Julian - 2017
This paper analyses region-level technical efficiency in the European Union over the 1995 to 2007 period. We propose the application of a nonparametric conditional frontier methodology to account for the presence of geographical externalities that are beyond the control of regional authorities....

Single Market Nonparametric Identification of Multi-Attribute Hedonic Equilibrium Models
Chernozhukov, Victor - 2015
This paper derives conditions under which preferences and technology are nonparametrically identified in hedonic equilibrium models, where products are differentiated along more than one dimension and agents are characterized by several dimensions of unobserved heterogeneity. With products...
