Modelling regional patterns of inefficiency: A Bayesian approach to geoadditive panel stochastic frontier analysis with an application to cereal production in England and Wales
低效率区域模式建模：贝叶斯地理加性面板随机前沿方法
We propose a flexible Bayesian approach to inefficiency modelling that accounts for regional patterns of local performance. The model allows for a separated treatment of individual heterogeneity and determinants of inefficiency. Regional dependence structures and location-specific unobserved spatial heterogeneity are modelled via geoadditive predictors in the inefficiency term of the stochastic frontier model. Inference becomes feasible through Markov chain Monte Carlo…
