Nonparametric efficiency measurement and statistical inference via DEA type estimators (see Färe, Grosskopf, and Lovell (1994) doi:10.1017/CBO9780511551710, Kneip, Simar, and Wilson (2008) doi:10.1017/S0266466608080651 and Badunenko and Mozharovskyi (2020) doi:10.1080/01605682.2019.1599778) as well as Stochastic Frontier estimators for both cross-sectional data and 1st, 2nd, and 4th generation models for panel data (see Kumbhakar and Lovell (2003) doi:10.1017/CBO9781139174411, Badunenko and Kumbhakar (2016) doi:10.1016/j.ejor.2016.04.049). The stochastic frontier estimators can handle both half-normal and truncated normal models with conditional mean and heteroskedasticity. The marginal effects of determinants can be obtained.

Install

R (CRAN)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("npsf", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-npsf

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-npsf

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-npsf

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
