“From the sampling theory perspective, the application
of the model is computationally prohibitive when T is
large. This is because the likelihood function depends
on a (T+1)-dimensional integral of the normal
distribution.” [Tsionas and Kumbhakar (2012, p. 6)]

61/76
Why is the MSL method so computationally
efficient compared to classical FIML and
Bayesian MCMC for this model?
Conditioned on the permanent effects, the group
observations are independent.
The joint conditional distribution is simple and easy to
compute, in closed form.
The full likelihood is obtained by integrating over only
one dimension. (This was discovered by Butler and
Moffitt in 1982.)
Neither of the other methods takes advantage of this
result. Both integrate over T+1 dimensions.

Does the simulation chatter degrade the
econometric efficiency of the MSL estimator?
Hajivassiliou, V., “Some practical issues in maximum simulated
likelihood,” Simulation-based Inference in Econometrics: Methods
and Applications, Mariano, R., Weeks, M. and Schuerman, T.,
Cambridge University Press, 2008
Speculated that Asy.Var[estimator] = V + (1/R)C
The contribution of the chatter would be of second or third order.
R is typically in the hundreds or thousands.
No other evidence on this subject.

The MARENA Program in Honduras
Several programs have been implemented to address resource degradation while also seeking to improve productivity, managerial performance and reduce poverty (and in some cases make up for lack of public support).
One such effort is the Programa Multifase de Manejo de Recursos Naturales en Cuencas Prioritarias or MARENA in Honduras focusing on small scale hillside farmers.

Methods
A matched group of beneficiaries and control
farmers is determined using Propensity Score
Matching techniques to mitigate biases that
would stem from selection on observed
variables.
In addition, we deal with possible self-selection
on unobservables arising from unobserved
variables using a selectivity correction model for
stochastic frontiers introduced by Greene (2010).

Closed Form for the Selection Model
The selection model can be estimated without
simulation
“The stochastic frontier model with correction
for sample selection revisited.” Lai, Hung-pin.
Forthcoming, JPA
Based on closed skew normal distribution
Similar to Maddala’s 1982 result for the linear
selection model. See slide 42.
Not more computationally efficient.
Statistical properties identical.
Suggested possibility that simulation chatter is an element of
inefficiency in the maximum simulated likelihood estimator.

Simply redefines the random effect to be a ‘region effect.’ Just a
reinterpretation of the ‘group.’ No spatial decay with distance.
True REM does not “perform” as well as several other
specifications. (“Performance” has nothing to do with the frontier
model.)
