Robust Estimation of Stochastic Frontier Models with MDPDE
Description
This provides a robust estimator for stochastic frontier models, employing the Minimum Density Power Divergence Estimator (MDPDE) for enhanced robustness against outliers. Additionally, it includes a function to recommend the optimal tuning parameter, alpha, which controls the robustness of the MDPDE. The methods implemented in this package are based on Song et al. (2017) .
