Estimating Production Functions with Heterogeneous Firms
We present a new approach to the estimation of production functions that allows for richer patterns of firm heterogeneity than can be accommodated under the proxy variable methods of Olley and Pakes (1996) and Levinsohn and Petrin (2003). In particular, we show that the economics of the firms static input choice contains the necessary identifying information to control for the endogeneity probl...
متن کاملEstimating Transfer Functions with SigLab
Accurate transfer function estimation of linear, noise-free, dynamic systems is an easy task for SigLabTM. Often, however, the system being analyzed is noisy or not perfectly linear. All realworld systems suffer from these deficiencies to some degree, but control systems are usually the worst offenders. Obtaining an accurate transfer function estimation from a noisy and nonlinear system require...
متن کاملRidgelets: Estimating with Ridge Functions
Feedforward neural networks, projection pursuit regression, and more generally, estimation via ridge functions have been proposed as an approach to bypass the curse of dimensionality and are now becoming widely applied to approximation or prediction in applied sciences. To address problems inherent to these methods – ranging from the construction of neural networks to their efficiency and capab...
متن کاملEstimating hospital production functions through flexible regression models
The subject of discussion is health care production functions. The parametric two-factor Cobb–Douglas and transcendental logarithmic (translog) production functions are frequently used. However, empirical and theoretical work has often questioned the validity of the parametric Cobb–Douglas and translog as a model for the production of health care. The aim of this study is to propose a new flexi...
متن کاملEstimating Production Functions When Productivity Change Is Endogenous∗
Production function estimation on micro data suffers from persistent unobserved shocks that vary within firms and cause bias. This paper presents an estimation model where the firm chooses capital investment and productivityrelevant intangible assets in response to market conditions under partly fixed adjustment costs. Estimation on Brazilian manufacturing firm data suggests that (i) firms’ uno...
