Technical and allocative inefficiency in production systems: a vine copula approach

Modeling the error terms in stochastic frontier models of production systems requires multivariate distributions with certain characteristics. We argue that canonical vine copulas offer a natural way to model the pairwise dependence between the two main error types that arise in production systems w...
