Discrete Time Duration Models with Group–level Heterogeneity∗
Dynamic discrete choice panel data models have received a great deal of attention. In those models, the dynamics is usually handled by including the lagged outcome as an explanatory variable. In this paper we consider an alternative model in which the dynamics is handled by using the duration in the current state as a covariate. We propose estimators that allow for group specific effect in para...
متن کاملThe (mis)specification of Discrete Time Duration Models with Unobserved Heterogeneity: a Monte-Carlo study
Empirical researchers usually prefer statistical models which can be easily estimated with the help of commonly available software packages. Sequential binary models with or without normal random effects are an example of such models which can be adopted to estimate discrete time duration models in presence of unobserved heterogeneity. But an easy-to-implement estimation may incur a cost. In th...
متن کاملNonparametric Discrete Choice Models with Unobserved Heterogeneity
In this research, we provide a new method to estimate discrete choice models with unobserved heterogeneity that can be used with either cross-sectional or panel data. The method imposes nonparametric assumptions on the systematic subutility functions and on the distributions of the unobservable random vectors and the heterogeneity parameter. The estimators are computationally feasible and stron...
متن کاملA Flexible Link Function for Discrete-Time Duration Models
This paper proposes a discrete-time hazard regression approach based on the relation between hazard rate models and excess over threshold models, which are frequently encountered in extreme value modelling. The proposed duration model employs a exible link function and incorporates the grouped-duration analogue of the wellknown Cox proportional hazards model and the proportional odds model as s...
متن کاملDiscrete-time battery models for system-level low-power design
For portable applications, long battery lifetime is the ultimate design goal. Therefore, the availability of battery and voltage converter models providing accurate estimates of battery lifetime is key for system-level low-power design frameworks. In this paper, we introduce a discrete-time model for the complete power supply subsystem that closely approximates the behavior of its circuit-level...
