Seemingly unrelated regression (SUR) models are useful in studying the interactions among different variables. In a high dimensional setting or when applied to large panel of time series, these models require a large number of parameters to be estimated and suffer of inferential problems. To avoid overparametrization and overfitting issues, we propose a hierarchical Dirichlet process prior for ...

Parametric seemingly unrelated regression (SUR) models are a common tool for multivariate regression analysis when error variables are reasonably correlated, so that separate univariate analysis may result in inefficient estimates of covariate effects. A weakness of parametric models is that they require strong assumptions on the functional form of possibly nonlinear effects of metrical covaria...

This article considers the seemingly unrelated regression (SUR) model first analyzed by Zellner (1962). We describe estimators used in the basic model as well as recent extensions.
