Title:  A regularization approach to estimating inefficiency in stochastic frontier panel models

Date: Friday, 3 May 2024 11:00 am AEST

Description: The paper proposes a regularized mode estimator of unit inefficiency in a panel data context, allowing inefficiencies to vary across units and over time. This regularized estimator penalizes the likelihood function by constraining the sample average of the idiosyncratic error to zero. Extensive simulations demonstrate that the regularized conditional mode estimator outperforms existing estimators, such as the unregularized mode estimator and the conditional mean estimator, particularly for the least efficient firms.

The focus is on microeconometrics for count data, including regression analysis and simulation-based analysis, where the dependent variable contains nonnegative integers. All methods are illustrated in by real life applications to cross-section and panel count data examples.

Title: Treatment effects

Date: 29 June - 3 July 2015

Presenter: Dr David Drukker, Director of Econometrics, StataCorp LP.

Description: This workshop focuses on causal analysis using treatment effect estimators, which measure the change in an outcome caused by a subject getting one treatment instead of another or not receiving any treatment, e.g. a patient receiving and the treatment a new drug regimen, or a worker participating in a job-training program. The key question is whether the treatment has a causal effect on an outcome. A counterfactual model specifies the potential outcomes that each individual would obtain under each treatment level, the treatment assignment process, and the dependence of the potential outcomes on the treatment assignment process.

Title: Exploratory data analysis

Date: 9-13 February 2015

Presenter: Associate Professor Demetris Christodoulou, Director of MEAFA research group

Description: This workshop focuses on exploratory data analysis methods for unveiling patterns from data, and suggestive relationships that would inform improved prospective modelling and updated expectations, including the detection of non-linearities, asymmetries, outliers and other data complexities. The workshop will extend to a discussion of nonparametric statistics and robust analysis methods, which are motivated from the need to deviate from rigid assumption-driven mathematical formulations that often fail to be confirmed by observables.

Title: Multilevel/Mixed models

Date: 10-14 February 2014

Presenter: Dr Yulia Marchenko, Director of Biostatistics, StataCorp LP.

Description: The workshops focuses on mixed models containing both fixed effects and random effects not directly estimated but instead summarized through the unique elements of their variance-covariance matrix. Mixed models may contain more than one level of nested random effects, and hence, these models are also referred to as multilevel or hierarchical models, particularly in the social sciences. The approach to linear mixed models is to assign random effects to independent panels where a hierarchy of nested panels can be defined for handling nested random effects.

Title: Structural equation modelling

Presenter: Kristin MacDonald, Chief Statistician, StataCorp LP.

Description: The workshops focuses on developing an in-depth understanding of SEM approach to modelling causal relations with latent determinants. SEM is an alternative way of thinking, formulating and estimating simple and complex cause-and-effect models, from simple linear regressions and instrumental variable models to measurement models, systems of simultaneous equations, confirmatory factor analysis, correlated uniqueness models, latent growth models and more.

Description: The workshop focuses on Monte Carlo (MC) simulation describes the process of generating repeated random sampling for imitating real situations through the use of reasonable probabilistic assumptions. MC simulation is most appropriate for evaluating complex deterministic formulations that are characterised by significant uncertainty. The principles of MC simulation is demonstrated through a wide variety of applications from statistics, econometrics, business, and health.

A particular emphasis is placed on analysing state-space models, which use state variables to describe a system by a set of first-order differential or difference equations, and decompose the time series into a number of distinct components.

Title: Survival analysis

Date: 18-22 July 2011

Presenter: Professor Rory Wolfe, Director of the Biostatistics Consulting Service, Monash University.

Various imputation techniques will be discussed with the main focus on multivariate normal imputation. A number of examples demonstrating how to safely and efficiently manage multiply-imputed data will be provided. Linear and logistic regression analysis of multiply-imputed data as well as several post-estimation features will be presented.

Date: 10-12 February 2010

Presenter: Dr Roberto G. Gutierrez., StataCorp Director of Statistics

Description: The workshop focuses on multilevel/mixed models contain both fixed effects analogous to the coefficients in standard regression models and random effects not directly estimated but instead summarized through the unique elements of their variance-covariance matrix. Mixed models may contain more than one level of nested random effects, and hence these models are also referred to as multilevel or hierarchical models, particularly in the social sciences.

Title: Survey data analysis

Date: 13-17 July 2009

Presenter: Professor Richard Gerlach, Chair of Business Analytics, University of Sydney Business School.

Description: The workshop introduces the concept and methods for survey data analysis and explains its distinction to the other types of quantitative analysis.
