In vh-d/SFAsim: Simulate Data for SFA

Description

generate simulated (cross-section or balanced panel) data for testing purposes

Usage

sim_data(k = 40, t = 10, ineff_sign = -1, inputs = c("random", "fe",
  "ar"), inputs_params = list(), frontier_coef = c(10, 0.5, -0.1),
  inefficiency = c("random", "fe", "ar"), ineff_params = list(),
  frontier_sigma = 1.5, determinants = c("none", "random", "fe", "ar"),
  deter_params = list(), deter_coef = c(0.1, 0.4), aslist = FALSE)

Arguments

k	number of individuals (cross section dimension)
t	number of observations per individual (time dimension)
ineff_sign	production (-1) or cost inefficiency form (1),
inputs	model for inputs data
inputs_params	parameters for model for inputs data
frontier_coef	coefficients for explanatory variables
inefficiency	model for inefficiency
ineff_params	parameters for model for inefficiency
frontier_sigma	sqrt of variance of the symmetric error
determinants	model for inefficiency exogeneous determinants
deter_params	parameters for model for inefficiency exogeneous determinants
deter_coef	coefficients on exogeneous determinants
aslist	TRUE/FALSE to return list or array
ineff_covar_coef	coefficients for exogeneous varaibles
ineff_sigma	variance of the inefficiency term
