      Biørn, Erik; Klette, Tor Jakob (Discussion papers;125, Working paper, 1994-08)
      This paper examines panel data modelling with latent variables in analyzing log-linear relations between inputs and output of firms. Our particular focus is on (i) the "increasing returns to scale puzzle" for labour input ...
    • Escaping the resource curse and the Dutch Disease? : when and why Norway caught up with and forged ahead of its neighbors 

      Larsen, Erling Røed (Discussion Papers;No. 377, Working paper, 2004)

    • Estimates for small area compositions subjected to informative missing data 

      Zhang, Li-Chun (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2009)
      Abstract Estimation of small area (or domain) compositions may suffer from informative missing data, if the probability of missing varies across the categories of interest as well as the small areas. We develop a double ...
    • Estimating and restricting growth rates and cointegrationmeans : with applications to consumption and money demand 

      Hungnes, Håvard (Discussion Papers;No. 309, Working paper, 2001)
      Abstract: The parameters in the cointegration vector and the loading parameters are not the only interesting parameters in a vector cointegration model. With a reformulation of the model the intercept parameters can be ...
    • Estimating change in a proportion by combining measurements from a true and a fallible classifier 

      Swensen, Anders Rygh (Discussion Paper;No. 30, Working paper, 1988-03)
      Consider a binary classification of a large population at two points in time. The classification is observed with error for the whole population using a fallible classifier and without error for a random sample using an ...
    • Estimating consumption and changes in stock applying micro expenditure data 

      Halvorsen, Bente (Discussion Papers; 575, Working paper, 2009)
      The consumption of storable goods does not necessarily equal purchases during a period because of changes in stock. In many cases, we have information about expenditures only, not consumption. A method is developed to ...
