Asymptotic distribution of conical-hull estimators of directional edges
方向边界锥包估计量的渐近分布
Nonparametric data envelopment analysis (DEA) estimators have been widely applied in analysis of productive efficiency. Typically they are defined in terms of convex-hulls of the observed combinations of inputs×outputs in a sample of enterprises. The shape of the convex-hull relies on a hypothesis on the shape of the technology, defined as the boundary of the set of technically attainable points in the inputs × outputs space. So far, only the statistical properties of the…
