Reference list for efficiency estimation and productivity analysis.

Leave a Comment
Efficiency estimation is to measure how efficient the decision making units are. The methodologies probably has been dominated by Stochastic frontier analysis (SFA, for parametric analysis) and Data envelopment analysis (for non-parametric analysis). For SFA, it is a branch of micro-economics and therefore you cannot avoid using some theories from micro-economics when measuring the efficiency. If you want to have relevant backgrounds regarding SFA, see my another post. In this article, I will try to recommend a reference list for efficiency estimation. This list will be appropriate for any researches regardless your research field.

Introduction to Econometric Production Analysis with R
Benchmarking with DEA, SFA, and R

SFA
